A few months ago I joined the gym where my husband has been going for several years. I went fairly regularly until I got sick about three (?) weeks ago, and hadn't been again until tonight. Any sort of endurance I'd built up was completely gone tonight, so it's like starting all over again. So I just walked the track tonight, to ease myself back into it.
On the nights that we both go together, we take the girls to the child care they have there. We've only done it a handful of times, because we don't really like the idea of all of the germs they probably encounter there, so we usually take turns going. But tonight we both went, so the girls went with us to the child care room (Rachel LOVES going, I should add. She begs to go most nights one of us is going to the gym.).
So we dropped them off and went upstairs to start our exercise. I walked while my husband was lifting. Then he joined me for a few laps on the track before he did the step mill. On the laps around the track together, we actually had a conversation without a child interrupting us! I told him it was like a date. I said, "Do I have to come to the gym with you just to get a date?"
Actually, we're going out this weekend for the first time in several months for an actual date (and Christmas shopping for the girls together), so that will be our real date night, but it was a nice little mini date walking around the track tonight!
