Day 2 and 3 of July 21st goal...

the weather is hot hot hot but I am not not not. I walked yesterday but wimped out at 1.04 miles (in 15.58 minutes mile). The humidity was much more than I had anticipated and much more than I could bare. Tonight I didn't even make it into my work out clothes and did no walking. I REALLY need to just suck it up and get on the treadmill since the air quality is much better inside but I'm lazy. I'm not sure WHY but I am. I haven't figured out how to make the treadmill fun. At least outside the scenery changes. Outside there is a chance you will see someone or something that makes you smile. Outside there (in my mind) is a sense of accomplishment upon returning home from a long walk or bike ride. Let me quess, I'm making excuses again!!

  1. You get a lot of credit for your excuses! They are well-thought-out.

    I've been doing the treadmill for over 20 years. TV and Tivo are what does it for me. I put on a pair of headphones for the sound (so I don't blast the rest of house out), and off I go. Not saying it's a boatload of fun everytime, but certainly there are times that I forget I'm exercising.

    I think the brutally hot weather wears all of us down. I can't believe you weeded this weekend! I can truly say that I would never do that. If there was a particular patch of weeds that bothered me, I would direct the asphalt truck right to it and give the signal to "pour".

    Take that, you stinkin' weeds!
