Fitness Friday

I’m kind of getting this fitness thing down, ya know?

I went so far yesterday as to split up a run instead of not doing it at all.

I really think half of my issue as far as consistency is the sense of “If I can’t do xyz, I might as well not do anything at all”.

Last night, I broke through that philosophy.  I knew that  I needed to get a run in. And I knew that I only had so much time to do it.

And then that time slipped away.

So instead of scrapping the run entirely, I split into two runs with a little (o.k., kind of big) break in between.

Was it ideal? No. Was it better than not running? Absolutely.

So, that was a run for the bank, as far as I’m concerned. I proved to myself that not doing it “perfectly” is better than not doing it at all.

In other non-running news, I have started a new challenge with some of my online friends to get some strength training in. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays,  I will do at least 30 minutes of strength training.

I dislike strength training, like, a whole lot. Which is why I really need to do it.

My biggest challenge is going to be finding the time to do it.

But really, isn’t that ALWAYS the biggest challenge with EVERYTHING?
