Several weeks ago I got up off the couch and started training for a 5k race this fall.  The air was cold and the wind raw.  Then spring happened; raking, mowing, weeding, pruning and helping neighbors do the same.  I suppose I could be discouraged for getting sidetracked but I’m not.  Isn’t the whole idea of exercising to get up off the couch and be active.

One thing that hasn’t changed is my dog walks. They are longer now and more frequent.  I look forward to more traditional workouts once the yard work is caught up.
