10 MILES = 16K Got it in today; Never settle for less! EVER!
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm This morning I set a simple goal = 5K walk in the morning and 5K run in the evening.
After much thought I decided to make this an exercise “off” day because I have a lot of exercise planned for the next 4 days. On top of that my shoulders is still a little sore, nothing bad because I watched my form and did the Pilates workout correctly. It’s from doing a very good session with a very good instructor. Soreness tells me I did it spot on.
However, I’m am a worry wort. I prefer to baby my body versus pushing. Therefore no weights today and probably tomorrow. With that said, the run will have to wait too for tomorrow.
You know me, I won’t take anything standing up - literally. Being this is an off exercise day I did yep 10 MILES OF WALKING! All before , during and on my last break. I don’t consider walking an exercise for me because I don’t sweat like I would like say running or kickboxing or step.
What did today and a lot of my unconventional exercise days taught me? NO EXCUSES!!! I refuse to give myself an excuse not to exercise.
Time running short? Make time for it…, no equipment - WALK! Do push-ups! Do something!
I refuse to play the I have no time game. If you don’t make time for your body, you won’t get what you want out of it. Enough said.
Oh, and this is me venting again….not talking about anyone in particular. Just me telling myself how it’s done in Nancy’s world.
Just like your food, you have to know how to zig zag your exercise to get the most out of it. Never stalemate your workouts!
Yes, don’t ever settle!! Settle leads to failure. Set goals and go into overdrive and get it in but also be mindful of your body.
Food wise I barely made the 1680 minimum. I packed some roasted corn on the cob for the movies. We are going to see Angels and Demons. Won’t be surprise if I hit my 2000 mark today. Even so, that will keep me in the right calorie range.
Saturday morning, ok, gotta really do my 5K run unless my shoulder is good then I do weights and yoga.
nancy i dont have time and i just cant do it… whine whine whine HEHE
nice!!!!
Good work on 10 miles walking. You are right about the “no time”. Yes, it can be hard to find time to exercise but if we want to be healthier then we have to find the time, they’re our bodies and no one else doing any amount of exercise is going to help our bodies. Gotta do it ourselves!
Man I dont know how you do all this and still have a normal life. One day I will be at your discipline level. I’m working on it. You go girl, you are such an inspiration.
I think you are wise to take care and give your body a break. Have an enjoyable weekend Nancy.
You know what works for you and your body, girl. Take care of that shoulder.
I like to walk too, it burns some cals at least!
roasted corn…mmmmmmm
Girl you are awesome, you sure do set a FANTASTIC example of the right way to do your body good! I LOVE IT
Wow, you rock! Have fun at the movies!
Oh enjoy the movie it looks like it’s going to be a good one.
And I don’t consider walking an exercise either I like to be all sweaty if I’m calling something an exercise.
…rockin’ as usual ; )
Hey your after pics look great. I love that you push yourself and do many different kinds of exercise/sports. This is my approach to. You will be an inspiration for me.
YOu are so right, no more whining, you rock!
