BUT even with the less than ideal effort I gave it, it was working - each time was a little easier than the time before. I love your idea of counting in your head - I was trying to juggle a kitchen timer (at least it was one of the magnetic flat ones), a water bottle, my keys,my phone, and an iPod while I was doing it. Not the brightest idea ever...... ha haLynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04376359694898837016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845049471542504159.post-77596059376850802662012-04-18T06:53:48.092-04:002012-04-18T06:53:48.092-04:00Hey, Kristin,

I took it to the beach and hoped to try it, but my iPod was dead when I did. That's how I ended up counting - I was determined to find SOME WAY to exercise and not be defeated. I'm anxious now to try it again and see how it goes. Good luck with it!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12171325981174463550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845049471542504159.post-56201005644698572682012-04-17T16:08:30.899-04:002012-04-17T16:08:30.899-04:00Awesome!

Now I'm considering the Couch 2 5K program to see if with the interval training I could eventually run a mile or two. And running on the beach is pretty inspiring!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02768333664657690363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845049471542504159.post-16233254671299397362012-04-17T13:50:58.820-04:002012-04-17T13:50:58.820-04:00I had issues over the weekend, too, as we left the...I had issues over the weekend, too, as we left the beach and I dealt with all the packing and unpacking and traveling and unhealthy restaurant food! I love your attitude - that's the spirit! It's always more fun to be outside. :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12171325981174463550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845049471542504159.post-10485205495440314862012-04-17T13:48:55.279-04:002012-04-17T13:48:55.279-04:00You, too!

I was doing OK for awhile, but am definitely floundering now. Time to forget about the days I didn't do anything and just focus on doing something today. I see a walk during my lunchtime happening - it is 70 here and sunny!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04376359694898837016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845049471542504159.post-36535045871407917062012-04-17T08:29:34.579-04:002012-04-17T08:29:34.579-04:00What a great encouragement for you and a wonderful...What a great encouragement for you and a wonderful way to spend time and expend energy with your kiddos.
