Actifit Ulog 1 July 2019 - My First Jog In 6 Months
Finally calm enough for me to put on his leash!
I have been thinking that I really need to get some exercise as I haven't exercise for 6 months now and particularly the last 3 months have nearly drained every bit of energy out of me. It's still tough and I don't think that I am anywhere near being on the road to dealing with what happened but I need to start somewhere and exercise has been on my mind for many months now. Thanks to Steemfest, I have a reason to get out my running shoes and MOVE!
Dragging me in excitement!
So last Saturday and Sunday has been just doing things, shopping...etc but today, today was real exercise! I came home from work and the kiddos were occupied with "The Croods" cartoon and since this was out of the norm as they don't get TV on a school night, I decided to take one of my doggies out for walk/jog kind of thing. Skippy was of course beside himself in excitement. It took me nearly a good 10 minutes to calm him down enough just to put the leash on him. I am just glad that he is an "old man" being 10 dog year old because he took off running and I could hardly keep up. Yanking him back didn't do much good as he was just too excited since he hadn't been on a walk for the longest time. Thank God we have a big garden for them to run around.
So yeah, I jogged and then walked and then jogged and really sweated it out. 30 minutes was all I could do and by that time, I was truly winded with sweat pouring down in buckets. It was a busy day in the office but I hadn't got much moving around as I went from meeting to meeting to interview to interview. So I really collected the bulk majority of my steps today from the jog and even then I couldn't make it 10,000! I feel really good from today's short exercise and I realised how much I missed the feeling I get from exercising. I plan to take my doggies out for walk, in turn, every day starting tomorrow and since I have 3, they would at least get some exercise at least 2 times a week.
It's funny how things work out when you decide to do something. I heard about the Steemfest announcement from a friend and made a decision to go. Then I saw the post about getting into a draw for a free ticket to Steemfest with Actifit and Blocktrades by getting fit and healthy. Two birds with one stone! How awesome is that? So I am going to take one day at the time and make a decision every day to do something to get fitter and healthier and hope for the best!
Good night everyone!
XOXO,

I am so happy to see this post and so proud of you, @khimgoh. I hope we both make it to STEEMFest. TM will make a great showing I know. I'm almost out for this night and your post makes my day/night. You will be stronger by next weekend, for this insane 15K step challenge :)
Hey @fitinfun thanks for dropping by. Yes please make it to Steemfest. It would be wonderful to have you there. 15,000 steps is tough, always took it for granted before the long hiatus from proper exercise. Thank you for the encouragement!
