However, this week I have already walked more than 26.2 miles on my treadmill.
SATURDAY 4 MILES
SUNDAY 4 MILES
MONDAY 4 MILES in the morning
4 MILES in the evening
TUESDAY 4 MILES in the morning
4 MILES in the evening
WEDNESDAY 4 MILES
TOTAL MILES WALKED SO FAR THIS WEEK - 28 MILES
After my treadmill workout on Wednesday I had 'travelled ' more than 26 miles this week.
I am aware that this is not really a spectacular accomplishment for active people.
I do know that this represents MORE TREADMILL miles than I have logged in the last seven years combined. So, instead of focusing on the atrocious record of inactivity that I was mired in for the past seven years, I choose to celebrate the fact that I have come to appreciate the value of exercise and I have now remembered how good I feel afterwards.
Once again, this involves the fun/happiness dichotomy that Dennis Prager has explained.
It is NOT FUN to spend one hour on the treadmill.
I do know that after I do, I AM VERY HAPPY THAT I DID.
