A new day
This could be the day, the day I get serious about some improvements to my lifestyle that will put me on the road to the best shape of my life. See what I did there? I wrote, “could be” – very non- committal, allows me to fail without having to feel bad about it.
This will be the day.
The time has arrived. Continuing with my old ways isn’t fair to me or the ones I love. Being laid-up with a back injury robs from me the ability to be active and takes away from family time – no baseball, no outings, no nothing. It steals a father from a son, a husband from a wife. Being in shape isn’t a guarantee of an injury-free life, but my odds tend to improve when I’m active and not carrying around excess me. So let’s do this.
Up at 600a today, took quite a while to fall asleep last night, but got there eventually. Haven’t done much this morning, one session of stretching so far. I feel about the same as yesterday, was hoping for better. Opened my new shoes today, that’s a positive sign. I went with a pair of Skechers based primarily on price and good reviews. I’m sick of paying close to two hundred dollars for a pair of running shoes – these Skechers were quite a bit cheaper. Let’s hope I don’t get what I pay for with this cheaper shoes.
