"And I was running!" Anyone?
Friday I hit the 'mill while my daughter was in preschool. Saturday I got up and did fartleks (I KNOW, RIGHT?!) with my dog (she loved them. I guess a Husky would). Sunday I took a day off (even God rested on Sunday). Monday hit the 'mill again while my daughter was in preschool. Tuesday...now get this: after my 12-1/2 hour work day, I went the to the gym and ran on the 'mill! The real shocker is that Wednesday I did the SAME!! AND did I mention strict tracking the whole week?? WHEW!
I'm elated. Even better, I don't feel that it was too much of a lifestyle shift to make this happen. I mean, I did this all last year. Something just clicked in me that I had to get going and keep going.
One of my BFF's little 9-year-old girl is my "friend" on our Fitbit page. Would you believe she kicks my butt in daily steps...well, daily?! She created a "challenge" with a bunch of her friends so we all joined and could see where each other fell instantly. It was FUN! I was in third until some stinker snuck in in the last 4 minutes and pushed me into fourth. But that little challenge pushed me to go to the gym even more! So today, I created one with my sister. She's pregnant and beat me during my work day...so you guessed it: had to hit the 'mill and conquer! LOL!
I have my goals...not clearly defined just yet, but I know they're there now and that I want something out of them. There will be more on that sooner than later.
Tomorrow I go for my referral for the opthamalogist to see about that poor vision issue in my left eye. Good thing you don't need your eye for running...!
