Since Sunday is not a day of rest - I made it a day of reflection - My thought for the day:
There are a lot of reasons not to write this note every day, there are a lot of reasons why not to keep working on your fitness quest, there are always doubts, worries, barriers but what I know is that when you believe in something you stick with it. Why? because we will get get something more from this endeavor, something bigger than just another push-up (all though that is cool too). We are building a power in ourselves, built from discipline, goal setting, challenge, camaraderie, follow through and ultimate accomplishment. We will carry this into everything we do. So, yea - it is worth it. Now to the numbers:
12 mile run, 80 pull-ups in 10 minutes (not sure this was wise), 45 minutes on the bike
Go to 2:44 with Sally - happy to still be on this plateau - then my 30 second rest - to the finish and happy to be there - then 130 push-ups in 4:17 - I then tried Melissa’s suggestion - that was funny - my legs shaking so badly I could barely get through minute one. I guess I have some work to do. Building function fitness- Reebok cross-fit here we come!
Till tomorrow
Ciao
