I joined Heathers team for Walk Across Texas. It's a program to help get Texans more active. There are 8 people on our team and each person on the team has to walk/jog at least 13 miles a week for 8 weeks. This will add up to the number of miles it takes to "Walk Across Texas". Today was day 1. I got up this morning and did 3.5 miles on the treadmill. I joined her team so I would be encouraged to exercise. I don't want our team to not make the miles because of me! I am a MAJOR excuse maker!! I always have something else I "need" to do. I will have to do extra on the days I'm off in order to get my 13 miles in for the week becasue I hardly ever exercise the days I work. It's part of my excuses...up at 445 at home at 800, I believe there is no time after supper and baths, etc. :) Anyway...I had a good start this morning, and hope that I can keep it up. I need enouragement!! And Heather will give it to me! She will not lose!! She's a coach's wife!! COMPETITIVE!! And hopefully after 8 consecutive weeks, I will be motivated to keep it up. I always slack off for some reason, but maybe not this time. I have a few pounds I want to lose, and hope this will get that going! Wish me luck!! :)
