The re-dedication to exercise started off better than I thought it would. I didn't want to push myself back into what I used to be able to do in my height of fitness.
Because that inevitably leads to hurting the next day and putting off the exercise (I should know I've fallen into that before).
You will notice that I do not have my initial weigh-in, because perhaps I stayed up late last night playing Deathspank on Xbox and perhaps... I got up at noon. I'll put that in tomorrow.
I'd like to do measurements too, but I'll need someone to help me with that later.
Before doing my 30 minutes of cardio on the treadmill tonight I checked in with my friend Kamiah to see if she would be interested in helping me stay true to the promise I made to myself.
To exercise daily.
I told her that I would like her to guilt me everyday and she asked if she could instead be very peppy.
We also talked about what motivates us, what we do during exercise and writing.
I'm glad to have her on this ride with me, because I do admire Kamiah's commitment to many things. I'm happy to have her remind me have to be committed to myself.
The actual workout had a simple goal: 30 minutes on the treadmill or 1 1/2 miles whichever took longer. It turned out to be the 30 minutes took longer, which made me happy with the first dip back into exercise waters in a while.
A Mr. Bandito note: He was fascinated with the treadmill the entire time.
Ceasing Ramble.
