Boston Dream...Week 3 Up and Coming!

Don't Give Up...Life Begins At The End Of Your Comfort Zone!

How many of us have started something in our lives and when it got too hard we gave up and decided it wasn't going to happen? 

I have done this many a time, especially with my nutrition and over exercising. I hear you say over exercising?? Yep I used to spend almost all my spare time doing some form of exercise and doing what we call junk miles, where these extra miles/kilometers wouldn't be beneficial to training in any way and would push you to run the risk of injury.

So after this past week with a bad back I have really sat back and thought just how much I have manage to change for the better. I now listen to my body and make sure its ready for the pounding on the pavement, and if not find an alternative to allow that little bit of extra time for healing.

Week 3 is a week of taking it easy without going totally insane. So with spending a lot of time in the water swimming, deep water running and strength training and if the weather drys out there will be a bit of walking. There will be the hope of pounding the pavement next Saturday at parkrun to see how I am going. Sunday will be a morning of fitness with my daughter doing a Lorna Jane Exercise session and learning something new. We are never to old to learn new things.

Then if all is good at the end of this week, it will be time to be back on building the kilometers again and pound the pavement and hopefully the weather will be with me and start to get fine and sunny and enjoy what is supposed to Spring here in Western Australia, not Winter, which is what we have today.

I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend and have an awesome week and I leave you with this thought to pond for the week ahead...
