Happy Friday Actifiters!
This week definitely got away from me and the routine that I was building. Between all the things that have come up at work and in my personal life this week, I have not been able to get the exercise in that I have wanted to. But I'm getting back on track today!
After working at my desk all morning getting caught up on email and working on a few small projects. I decided I needed to take steps to get back into the routine that I hadn't been building. So I used my lunch break to go for a walk.
Missing so many days this week reminded me how important of an investment my health needs to be. Just like I carve out time for what's important, I need to carve out time to get regular exercise. I know it's such an important part of physical and mental health, but this week I guess I hadn't been making enough of an effort to prioritize it. It. Not sure why I seem to continually need reminders of why it's so good for me.
The day was cold, but wonderfully sunny and on this walk, I was really trying to increase my speed a bit so that I could get more steps and the same amount of time. Pushing myself that little bit was actually quite energizing. And it helped me be more productive with the rest of the afternoon.
It was a beautiful day, and I enjoyed being outside and active. The geese also seem to be enjoying such a wonderful day.
My walk was quite successful as well, I managed to clock a total of 1.4 miles in 27 minutes. Not like it's a new record or anything, but pushing my speed I think could really be a good thing to maximize the time I'm walking. I'd call that a win for today.
