I've fallen off my diet a bit the last few days. I've been at home, sick, and bored. So I've messed up with some small late snacks. Never too far, probably at about maintenance.
So yesterday I decided I'd walk along to the Just Walk YouTube series. I walked a little over a mile and felt great.
For those unfamiliar, it's just walking in place with some additional arm movements and kicks to a measured beat. If you had been walking at that pace in a straight line, it would be a mile. And so on.
This is the first actual attempt I've made to increase my activity. So count me surprised when I decided to jump right into the 5K.
And you know what? I didn't give up. I had to take a short break halfway through. But I still got up and finished. And I'm pretty happy about it.
I think I'm going to try to implement this into a daily routine. Maybe not the 5K, because at the metered pace it's about a 45 minute commitment. But at least a mile.
