Oh , you've heard the saying, "A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step," right?
Well, just for the record, I've modified it...
A journey of a thousand miles starts with 15 minutes on the treadmill
and a measly one kilometre.
Yep, you guessed it. I started my new fitness plan this morning. I'm disappointed at how unfit I've become over the loooooooooong winter in Australia's south west. It was just so lovely hunkering down and relaxing by the fire instead of sweating it out in a gym!
But what's done is done, and the consequence of my winter indulgences is that I'm now at the bottom of the fitness mountain. That lousy one kilometre on the treadmill this morning was all I could manage without having a heart attack!
It's not that I want to run a marathon or anything, but I would like to get fit enough to run across a tennis court without grunting!
Ya hear what I'm saying?
I know I have a tough 8 weeks ahead of me with this fitness plan, but the good news is, I'm not alone. I have just posted my request for support on the re-opened the world-renowned
"Dear Goddess" support circle -- (previously known as the "Love and Blissings Book") -- a virtual support group for goddess sisters.
<--- This is how happy it made me!
Knowing that I'm not alone -- that there is a sister or two out there thinking positive can-do thoughts about me and for me -- kicks ass.
It's easy-peasy to get involved
- Go to the "Dear Goddess" support circle
- If you want support, ask for it.
- If you have energy, time, resources or love to give, give it.
Simple, yes?! And wonderful!
