The Habit

Today we walked one mile in 18 minutes - when our goal was 15 minutes. Tomorrow we will try it again.

We have printed a calendar (made in the wonderful and versatile program by the name of Excel) and posted it up on the fridge. Under today's box it says: 1 mile = 18 min.

We are going to meet this goal and we'll keep setting stricter ones (strict in both time and distance). Today we walked fast - but one day we will run (for you folks that have been to our house, walking a mile is not an easy task on our road... this task involves 4 serious hills).

The other day Norm and I realized that our bodies are actually craving exercise, that's when we made a decision to take this on and develop a habit to exercise (which according to text books takes 21 days to develop). We'll see where we stand on August 26...
