A gym rat is born!

February 10, 2011 - Didn't go to the gym.

It's kinda funny how my thoughts have changed in the past week or so.  When there's a day that I don't workout (when I know I had time to) I feel really guilty and lazy.  Strangely, on days when I know I don't have time, I don't feel it.  I suppose it's because I know that there was no way around it.  Although, I find myself doing things throughout the day that I didn't used to.  I don't look for the closest spot in the parking lot anymore, I walk to work (even when it snows :) ), I take the stairs instead of waiting on an elevator, etc.  Little things like that make me happy.

Also, I need some help coming up with some short-term goals.  My long term goal is set, but a 2 year time span is tough to keep as daily motivation.  Know of any races, or events, or just fun activities that I should be preparing myself for?  For example.. the Ultimate Frisbee tourney I played in last weekend left me sore for days!  But I loved every minute of it!  Leave a comment... I'll check it out!

I'm very tired, so I'm gonna cut it short and hit the sack.  Suffice to say, I'm excited about my new outlook and look forward to keeping you updated.  Who knows, there may be pictures involved.  :)

:-D

  1. Umm Hello?? 2.5 Months until the Warrior Dash?!? That's a good short term goal. Then what about trying for a half marathon (or at least a 10k) by the end of the year?
