So I didn’t go running/walking today as planned, but I had to drive all over the place and wanted to get an early start so instead of hitting the park, I got in the car and drove. Now it’s 103 degrees outside and there’s no way to get outside and exercise now. And I could go to the gym…but I’m not going to because going in the pool because it’s so darn hot.
But tomorrow’s another day to start up again, so I’m not going to give up. I think part of my problem is that I don’t give myself enough of a ramp-up schedule. Maybe I set too lofty of a goal, to complete 4 miles each morning. Maybe I should just shoot for one lap, or 2 miles. Would it be better to do 2 miles each morning, rather than 4 miles twice a week and feeling crappy about the days I miss?
I’m pretty much pro rest days.
