It’s profound, you’ll see.
With Spring in the air, Brent and I have been talking about ways to get healthier. We got bikes and have been having fun riding them. But, where we live is so hilly that I’m just not strong enough to hook the trailer up to my bike so I can take the girls out myself. Disappointing.
One night as we were climbing into bed, I think it was around 1:30 am, I had profound insight into a strategy that would change our lives.
More sleep
More exercise
Less food
It’s revolutionary, I know.
So far I’ve done a little better with less food. I’ve also been getting more sleep {in the form of naps} though I haven’t been getting to bed too much earlier. It’s the more exercise that’s been giving me some trouble.
Earlier this month Oh Amanda hatched a plan to get up early and go for a walk outside while it is still dark and before her little ones wake up. I was inspired and gave it a try one morning. Leaving my house at 6:45 is not early enough! As I was coming back, I ran into high school traffic. O a hilly, slightly winding road with NO sidewalks, I feared for my life a little bit. I haven’t convinced myself to get up earlier, but I think that should be my goal for this week.
How do you work exercise or physical fitness into your days? I’m looking for ideas so please feed me all yours!
Happy Monday
