Are you not inspired?

This morning was a busy morning for me. I walked to the gym, spent 35 minutes walking, jogging and sprinting around the track (yes I'm starting to incorporate some short sprints into my workout now!) and then walked home and mowed the back lawn. I then showered, got dressed and had breakfast and  brushed my teeth a second time (because I had a dental appointment - don't pretend like you don't do the same thing) and walked to work where I had parked my car the night before so I could drive to my appointment.

When I got to work and tried to get into my car - I came to the horrifying realization that I had left my keys at home - so I turned around and walked back home to get my keys with the full intention of stealing the van and going to my appointment. Jo apparently had already made plans that precluded my commandeering of her vehicle so I walked/jogged/sprinted all the way back to the church (note to self: jogging and sprinting are not easy in dress shoes) hopped into my car and got to the dentist only five minutes late.

The upside of all this is that when I looked at my Fitbit after finally getting to work - I had already taken almost 14,000 steps and walked a total of 5.7 miles before 10am. Better still I seem to have broken through a plateau on the weight loss project have seen a steady decline for four straight days now!

So in honour of that I thought I'd  show you what progress looks like to me when I look in the mirror in the mornings.


As you can see, I've still got a long way to go, but perhaps this will inspire you to meet whatever fitness goal you have been setting for yourself.

Happy Thursday.
