What path will you follow? Is it the path to a healthier life?
At the beginning of 2019, I set myself a goal of running 38 miles during January, I am pleased to report that I achieved my target. I then decided that I wanted to increase this to 40 miles for February (forgetting that it is a shorter month)!
There are often days when I need to kick myself up the bum to get out there, but having a goal in mind it focuses me and keeps me going in a forward direction.
My reason for writing this is to inspire you to find something that helps you achieve a healthier life whether that be running, another form of exercise or perhaps cleaning up your diet!
Make a plan that is achievable ~ share it with someone to hold you accountable ~ take the first steps for it to become to habit ~ and reap the benefits of your new healthy regime!
I don’t put any pressure on myself to achieve a specific time or distance during my runs, but I know that every step I take is taking me closer to where I want to be. Exercise doesn’t have to take hours, it just needs to be consistent and something that you enjoy!
Good luck and please share your goals with me.
