I think I can check this off or change the goal. I need to do more than walk and run to get the body I want. But I definitely have been very good and it is now a necessary habit of mine. And such an awesome stress reliever!

how much more fun is it to be active when you’re having fun and hanging out with someone else? this makes me sad for my wasted youth in which i did nothing remotely interresting… why wasn’t i outside enjoying the sunshine? today i played tennis and even though i’m terrible, i want to play outside every single day.
Yay me….I’ve been really, really good despite the skull-shrinking heat.
Plus I’ve added crunched to work on my tummy fat.
but with my work schedule and the heat, I should change the goal to every other day.
I’m really proud of myself. I’ve been walking almost every day after work. And on days I don’t work, I walk a minimum of 5 miles. I’ve been feeling better and the dog is so tired that she is much better behaved!
The only bad thing is that last night she pulled me down trying to chsed a cat and dragged me across some concrete scrapping up my arm, knee and iPod cover.
My knee is doing much better. I’ve been sticking to a fast walking routine instead of running. I liked running because I really worked up a sweat and covered a lot more distance in far less time. But through it all I only missed out exercising two days. I am very proud of myself for sticking with it despite my fear of reinjury.
I’ve actually been doing great. First, I started out by taking long walks with my dog about three days a week. I then added walking 20-30 each day on my lunch break. Now, just for the last 5 days I’ve been running at night with the dog. Last night I went about 5 miles in one hour but I really hurt my knee in the process. I just need to make myself keep going. I just don’t want this injury to stop all my good efforts.
