June Challenge - Day 3

I have to admit that I'm officially behind schedule to meet my goal. I should be at 6 miles that I'm only at 3.43. Couple of early walks this weekend and I should catch up (plus 3 yards to mow using the handy, dandy push mower). By Monday I may even be ahead of things.

I may need to rethink my weeknight after dinner walks. Thunderstorms. I was lacing up my shoes last night when the bottom fell out of the sky. There was a house about a mile away that was struck by lightning - this mornig it's still standing but it has about a 6 foot hole in the roof.

I really believe I can meet my goal this month and one reason I think it's going to become a daily habit is how I feel when I don't get my exercise in - I don't like it. It's sorta like the same lowly opinion I have of myself if I leave home without brushing my teeth - the chances are that no one else will know that I didn't but I know. Part of the routine is off and it throws that delicate "balance" that we all seem to be seeking out of kilter.

Guess I'll go get some work done. Have a great day everyone.

I absolutely love the teeth brushing analogy!!  I am currently at 7miles and am so tierd and sore (which is really sad) I can't imagine getting it in today. But definitely going to try! I have my 2 week pre-op appt.  today along with my hospital interview. I am super excited/nervous just hope I remember to ask the right questions :)

Thank you so much Iris for pushing and encouraging me to get off of my booty! :)
