It's amazing what a new pair of running shoes, a few new workout clothes, a stepped-up
interval routine, and an encouraging boyfriend does for my fitness motivation. These daily trips to the gym have me
both energized and exhausted at all of the right times. With the help of a workout on early Saturday morning, we were able
to tackle the tragically disastrous outside storage area without the help of FEMA and still have time to linger
over yummy omelettes and coffee before brunch turned into dinner.
The strangest thing is actually waking up and looking forward to the gym-- this has NEVER happened to me before.
The gym is something I've tolerated over the past five years, but never enjoyed. Maybe it's in the runner's high
or the chance to wear my new ultra airy, scarlet and gray Rykä kicks, but without warning the gym has become a
priority in my day and I bounce out of my seat every day at noon to get there.
It hasn't done wonders for my inbox-- or the backlog of phone calls I need to return. But I don't expect
it to work miracles-- or change my procrastinating soul-- overnight. These monumental changes take a little time. |
