Boy, I do NOT want to admit this but the fact that I'm so reticent to admit it means I best do so. :o Since my last update last Monday I have taken a 40 min walk on Thursday and a 150 min hike on Saturday. That's it. :( I am still on track for the goal but I have got to figure out the day to day exercise thing.

You're headed in the right direction when you stay accountable to someone (or lots of someones) for your progress. Are you a schedule person? Maybe you could post a workout schedule. If you're not then try posting a minutes countdown. Like on a dry-erase board keep track of how many more minutes you have to complete for the week or month to remind you to stay on track. Just some ideas. Velveteen-AWESOME! You completed a 5K running. Well Done!! I am a few weeks behind you on the C25K program and I can tell it's getting more and more challenging! |
