Adventures.

Heeeeeeeeeyyyy!  It's April 1st and you know what that means!  A-Z Challenge is in full swing!  If you've clicked on my A-Z Challenge page, you'll know that I'm being totally conceited and writing all about myself this challenge.  Why?  Cause it's my blog!  





There are several aspects to my life that make me happy and give me comfort.  Things I enjoy, people I love, and so many memories to reminisce over.  But there is one thing that can truly relax and rejuvenate me. Something that can bring me back to life and reset my happiness.  That thing is an adventure.

My adventures aren't extreme.  They aren't expensive and they aren't generally too planned.  They come out of nowhere and bring so much peace and excitement.  From something as major as a visiting a new city to simply taking a different way home to volunteering to head a community project, the new and excitement keeps me going and revives me.

I wouldn't say that I get bored quickly, but I do like subtle changes that throw something new into each day and each event.  Saying yes when I've always said no, and sometimes saying no when I've always said yes.  They are my little adventures.  My little changes, my own little currency of happiness.

enough IS enough.

  I can think of many 'e' words that are relevant to my commit to be fit theme for this A-Z Challenge: energy, exertion, educate, excel...the list could go on and on. I finally settled on the word 'enough'.   Christmas of 2010 I was at the lowest weight I had ever been.  I remember being very happy and very, very hungry.  I was over-exercising and under-eating.  The weight didn't stay off because it wasn't a lifestyle that I could keep up with.  By summer 2011, the weight was back on. In my commitment to be fit and my quest to lose the last 10 pounds, I will be doing enough.   I will exercise enough and I will eat enough.  I will change my body and change my life in a healthy, and maintainable way. When I run, I will run fast enough.  When I lift, I will lift heavy enough.  When I stretch, I will stretch far enough.   I will, simply, do enough.

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?

Good choices.

Happy Monday everyone!  I hope your week is a good one! We're on Letter G for the A-Z Challenge, and my commit to be fit post is about making good choices. Making good choices isn't always easy for me.  Mainly, because I'm usually really drunk and not thinking about what's best for me in the long run. You're probably thinking that I'm talking about making good diet choices and, of course, I am, but they aren't the only choices that need to be made when choosing to live a fit and healthy lifestyle.   Nutrition and diet choices are, actually, probably the easiest of all them all.
