Day 8 - We now return to our regularly scheduled program.

I got back on my hamster wheel today. Surprisingly, it felt really good to do it. Ribs don't hurt anymore so I figure all is well. I was pretty upset when I got injured because I thought I would lose my motivation. Having that ugly little chart on the wall has helped tremendously. I'm proud of myself for the progress I've made and that chart is a testament to what I've accomplished thus far. I know I won't feel this good everytime I get on the treadmill, but today I'm feeling great about it.

Here's to everyone trying to make a change.

22 days to go!

Thank you! I want to get my time up past 10 minutes, but I'm not pushing it. I know it will come eventually. It felt good to get back into the routine, putting numbers up on that chart is a great motivator. Ultimately I want to be able to log a 30 minute session, but I can't think about that or I will feel too intimidated. Tiny steps, tiny steps...

Having to pause can break your stride, but you did a hell of a job getting back on!
