Jump in with both feet!

How often in life do we allow someone else to determine our happiness, our stress level or our schedule? Today, you are taking back some control. You are going to make the decision to do something different. Besides, insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Let's make a change... together.

If you are an avid gym rat, if you are training for a half marathon, you know what PR means or you were up at 6am to hit the weight room, this post probably isn't going to help you. If you just felt like you were going to be sick and have no idea what any of that means, that's okay and welcome!

This week, you're going to walk. Yep. I know you have sneakers. And some socks. You live on a road. And you have a phone or a watch. Or both. BINGO. You're ready!! The ultimate goal? To complete a 5k (that's 3.1 miles).

Sunday 8/30	Monday 8/31	Tuesday 9/1	Wednesday 9/2	Thursday 9/3	Friday 9/4	Saturday 9/5
Rest	15 min walk	Rest	15 min walk	Rest	1.5 mile walk	30-60 min walk

When you get to Friday's walk, if you don't have a specific area with marked mileage, you can download a free app that will calculate your mileage for you (try Nike+, MapMyRun, or RunKeeper). Be sure to check back daily for your journaling prompts. Have a great week!
