Well, I wasn't invited to run in the Ky derby. I haven't run in any derby! Nor do I plan to run anywhere! Ever!
I am the true couch potato. At work, part of my job is to launch health and wellness programs in the workplace. I started a weight watchers at work program...it's been very successful....but I didn't join.
I organized a walking challenge, set goals, awarded prizes, and 54 people walked a total of 9000 miles. I wasn't one of them.
Now I have begun an exercise at work program...it's a team challenge kind of thing where everyone sets their individual goals and works as a team to reach them. Since my reputation of a couch potato is beginning to show, I actually signed up to participate. It starts June 4. I don't know what in the hell I am going to do for 30 minutes per day, but...
Today my sweetheart bought me a bike. It's got a whole lot of speeds. I fear I may need training wheels again since it's been many years, but he said he will give me a push from the top of the hill, and if I am still on the bike at the bottom of the hill then I don't need training wheels. (and he is still my sweetheart??) Now if he would just put it together before June 4......
I need a better cush for my tush tho, that seat is HARD!
It's time now for me to do something about this extra weight. I have focused so fully on my quit that I wasn't really watching what was going in my mouth. As long as it wasn't a cig and wasn't something that was still alive I figured I was safe. Rationalizing much? If I am going to focus on my health, I'd better get off the couch!
I challenge you all to join me. 30 minutes per day, and you don't have to do it all at once. 3 ten minute sessions are just as good. If we can quit smoking, how tough can jogging in place for ten minutes at a time be?
Anyone want to play?
