Driving to work this morning I passed two people a few minutes apart who were doing some serious walking. I'd guess they were both in their 50s, and they both had big smiles on their faces.
This despite the overcast sky and the morning chill.
Exercise is supposed to do that for you -- give you a mental boost along with the physical benefits. It took awhile for me to be convinced of this, but I am now. When I don't exercise regularly, my mood stinks. When I do, I actually feel energetic.
So one morning very soon, despite the chill in the air, I promise I will strap on the sneakers, hit the pavement and walk. If you happen to pass me on your way to work, I promise to smile.

That is my thought just about every morning - tomorrow morning....... the nite before the sneakers are lined up and the alarm is set... but when that alarm goes off in the morning............hmmmm it just gets shut off. On my way to work I often pass the same people walking and/or running... I definitely admire their dedication and determination.. I wish I had just a part of it
ReplyDeleteI didn't walk today either. But I did play soccer with a 3-year-old. That has to count for something!
