I am notorious for using taking care of others as an excuse to not take care of myself. My husband left this morning for a three week trip, and I've decided it is the chance to jump start my health.
I walked a 2 mile race yesterday, finishing with a pace of 15:49 per mile. But I had something left at the end.... I didn't push myself like I could have. And I've always wanted to run. So I'm taking these three weeks to push myself further.
I started this morning walking/jogging to the highway and back, a 1.5 mile route, in a time of 25:43:82. I mapped out another 1.5 route, and a 2 mile route, so that I can track myself, and see if I can push myself to improve.
I also think I can spend time exercising a couple of times a day during these three weeks. And I'm scheduling a hair cut and color for right before he returns. I'll be a brand new me to welcome him home!
Here's TO ME!
