My new Summer hours at work have me getting up earlier and working later. This means that the most convenient time for me to hit the gym, is right during its busiest time. The last thing that I want at the end of my day is to be frustrated with crowds at the gym and stressed out about dealing with them!
So, I needed to find another answer to my weeknight workouts.
Running or biking seemed like obvious solutions, but I haven’t been much of a runner in years. Maybe this was my opportunity to get back into it.
2 weeks ago, I went out and bought a shiny new pair of running shoes. I even asked the salesman for help in finding the right pair for my needs! After spending those couple of weeks breaking them in with walks, Monday night I went on my first run!
My new shoes felt GREAT! With no blisters looming, I was able to push myself through parts of the workout when normally I fail because my feet are burning! I achieved my workout goal! What a great feeling! I felt so good about the run, I shared the story with people at work, and inspired myself to go out again Tuesday night. So last night I did another run, it was a little harder but still felt great.
This week, I ask you to find something that inspires you to be healthy. Maybe it’s a new pair of shoes, or a new pan to cook in! Maybe it’s buying fresh veggies at the Farmer’s Market. Whatever your choice, I hope it inspires you to be healthy!
