I'm sorry to announce it but I can't lie! When the run was over, I still didn't want to go to work!!! But at least I got a run in!!
Half way through my work day I decided that maybe a walk on my lunch break would make the day better!!! So I walked on my lunch break!
Yeah, I felt great while walking. I enjoyed the blooming trees and the sunshine. Then I went back inside and the duldrums hit again.
Hey, at least I turned toward exercise! That's a huge step in the right direction!!!! Tonight is Zumba! Hopefully some of my peeps will be there! (I refer to my Zumba buddies as 'my peeps')
This month I set a mileage goal of 100. Should have been simple! As of today I only have 21 miles! Oops! 79 miles in 9 days....doable...kinda... But we shall see!!
Fear...have I mentioned how fear rules my life??? For some reason my lite speed bike is a fear for me. I know that it is going to be painful against the first...and that freaks me out. Go figure! I even one day panicked about the clipless pedals. (Although when I rode my trek yesterday and slowed down and immediately started the traditional litany in my head 'clips clips clips'...I knew I would be ok.). I still struggle with changing the tube when I get a flat....so that freaks me out. Stupid fears!!!! Yeah, I'm a mental case! I know it!
That said....I will be facing the bike and I WILL conquer it this year! Riding and maybe...just maybe changing a tire too (I have no problem changing the tire/tubes on my trek or my husbands trek).
Eating....once again I'm vowing to get back to strict eating!!! This weight HAS to go!!
turnin to exercise is a HUGE mental shift! and it's a silly bike you're a KICK-ASS WARRIOR GODDESS what chance does it have in defeating you? that's right NONE!!!
ReplyDeleteNice work getting a ride in before work! Yeah, work can be tough at times.
ReplyDeleteThose glorious blossoms would make any outdoor activity fabulous!
Not sure if it works for you, but I get on my bike early before work. Then there are NO excuses when I come home. See if that works for you!
I am glad you were able to get in your morning cardio, afternoon cardio and then evening cardio! That is some serious business! good job :)
ReplyDeleteSo proud of you for all the exercise you got in !!!

It's amazing to exercise when you feel down or stressed out. It's something I am working on!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, this weight has got to go! :)
ReplyDeleteWell done on the exercise instead of turning to food for example. I do know that feeling of not wanting to go to work. Happens a lot on Sunday evening to me :)
