Like the mtv show...I wanna be made. I have so many ideas in my head about what I am and what I can be. It's up to me to accomplish what I set out to do.
..actually it's up to me to set out to do.
I want to be made into a runner, a swimmer, and a biker. Actually...I'll settle for wanting to be made into a fit person. I want to get fit enough to actually do a triathalon, or a run, or a bike race. Not that I would actually do one...but I want to get to the point where I could do one if I wanted.
Christmas I focused on fitness. I asked for rollerblades and my wonderful husband came through. My son received xbox dance dance revolution for a christmas present. My husband got an ab-rocket(for situps). I put on my rollerblades that day and went out to ride for a few minutes. I went to the end of the road and back and my legs and lower back were deffionately tightened up and sore. I was sore for the next few days. I am so out of shape. I am so over weight. My mind is motivated...but my body is inhibiting me!
I started biking for fitness. I have alot of weight to lose and I cant do just any activity(some are easier and some are impossible at this point). I can walk, hike, swim, bike. Because of my weight... walking and hiking are harder for me to do. I have a pain in my left foot that comes when I'm on my feet for a long period of time. I'm sure it's mostly because I work and walk on a concrete floor most of the day and because the amount of my weight. My joints are ok right now. I've had pain in the past with my knee. The only think that really is limiting me now is my foot pain. Biking has been the easiest exercise for me to do, and do for an extended time. I started biking to work and back(3 miles each way). I rode bike with my kids. I went out and rode by my self. I went on longer and longer rides. It got easier and easier.
I've been trying to round up alot of motivational sources. I searched itunes for anything about bikes and found countless podcasts.
