I try to do it every half an hour, but sometimes I get so engrossed that I forget. Last night, watching TV, I made my husband move his arms around in time to mine. I'm going to start getting up during commercials next.Charlotte Rains Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12657052065864065323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242487691005400111.post-69536072544404008732012-08-29T11:41:27.186-05:002012-08-29T11:41:27.186-05:00Very inspirational, Valeka!

I've got a beautiful park a block from my house and it's a sunny day with a nice cool breeze. Looks like my 10K Day will have at least one walk in the park to break up the tush-stagnation. :~)Fear of Writinghttp://fearofwriting.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242487691005400111.post-6980480514319034812012-08-28T16:43:25.829-05:002012-08-28T16:43:25.829-05:00Hi, Ruth!!

I'm really looking forward to getting started with trail running. It feels like it's more "me" than road running. I can't wait to tell ya all about it!!Running on Heavyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12909405482129421167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242487691005400111.post-928507532610992792012-08-28T16:41:25.602-05:002012-08-28T16:41:25.602-05:00Thank you so much, Carole!!

So happy that you enjoyed the post! <br /><br />I've found that the little exercise breaks throughout my day really help me keep my energy level up so I get more done. I park far from the front of stores (most of the time!), too! So far, the little changes are making a difference.<br /><br />Good luck with your work out routine! I know that once you set your mind to it, you will make it happen!

I love trail running because it does seem to improve my balance, work different muscle groups, etc. and of course, I've loved Yoga for years. btw, thanks for the app info.!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01243729980808445909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242487691005400111.post-29438272923664938452012-08-27T13:06:28.067-05:002012-08-27T13:06:28.067-05:00I love this well-written post, Valeka, and fantast...I love this well-written post, Valeka, and fantastic quotes too! You're a woman after my own heart. I felt so motivated while watching the Olympics that I started going up and down the stairs to the basement here at home during those frequent commercial breaks. You're so right about how even a few minutes of exercise repeated a few times a day can make a big difference.<br /><br />I've also started parking my car as far away from the entrance to a store or building as possible, and I'm finding it really isn't that big of a deal, but hoping the rewards will be over time.<br /><br />That said, I'm trying to remain consistent in completing a full workout-cardio,strength resistance and toning - three times a week. I think I may try and 'get 'er done' first thing in the morning rather than midday and see if that further motivates me to do more EVERY day :)<br />Carolehttp://cjtreggett.comnoreply@blogger.com
