Working Out Again!

Great News! I had a minor break-through yesterday. I overcame my negative self-talk and got myself out to exercise. I wanted to ride my bike along 2700 E. to "the gully," a wooded area in Salt Lake that I have never been to. But, to get to 2700 E, I had to ride my bike up hill about 6 blocks. I had to stop for a breather once. I also didn't realize that heading north along 2700 E. is slightly uphill. It turned out to be a bigger workout than I anticipated. I guess the combination of strenuous exercise & rising temperatures caused me to feel a little light headed & I had to pull over. I didn't make it to the gully, but I still feel like I had a major accomplishment by riding up hill for as long as I did. I don't think I've done that in years. It also got me motivated to work out after school this week. The kids may be off the wall & I may be stressed, but that shouldn't stop me from taking care of myself. My health needs to be my priority. So, here's to a new commitment this week. Wish me luck!
