I LOVE this inspiration quote! I got this from a fellow blogger on pinterest and this has really helped me in Exercising and motivating me to run 2 1/2 miles twice a day! YES! Twice a day! If I can, at times I always have errands I like to do in the morning after I run and it some times have me doing other things and I don’t get the time to do the run.
In Luke 6:45:
“The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.”
I LOVE what this verse says because it goes along with what the inspirational quote above. We have to watch our thought process, because we will eventually walk that out. Staying focus on the goal of completing that 2 1/2 mile run is my focus, I say that its easy because then my body will adjust to the run and eventually it will become easy! Its even more easy to get negative and stay there, it does take some energy to stay positive.
Exercise Means– Activity requiring physical effort, carried out to sustain or improve health and fitness. I believe this is for the mind and body! Let’s Stay focus!
My goal for this year is to run 3 miles in 18 minutes or less. It may sound crazy but I like to set goals for myself and reached them, it helps me to stay confident for me. Running 3 miles is not bad its running it in 18 minutes that’s the challenge. So far Ive been running 2 1/2 in 30 minutes. I Know that I have to run each mile in 6 minutes to run a total of 18 minutes. For me running 2 1/2 miles is my starting point of moving forward in my goal. Ive been running around my neighborhood and it has helped me to stay focused. Before I leave next week I would like to push for 20 minutes in running 2 1/2 miles and then when I get to California, I can finish my goal!
In the mean time I have been eating healthy and watching how much I eat everyday. I used to take classes at the gym but I just find that running really does the job for me, I do TRX, ZUMBA, KETTLE BELLS, WEIGHT LIFTING , and Running that’s pretty much it! I wanted to get into weight lifting but I’m doing it slowly but surely. My diet consist of drinking a lot of water, I drink tea, I LOVE my green/protein smoothies, I eat A LOT of beans, brown rice, steamed vegetables, fruit and chicken. I also take prenatal vitamins because I would like to get pregnant soon. I know….My husband ask me the same question, Why do ALL this work? Then when you get pregnant your body will change and you will have to do it again.
Well, I feel that exercising now, I’m giving my child more energy and nutrition now if I wasn’t exercising and after I have the baby I have a better chance to lose the fat exercising now then if I don’t. So Its a benefit all around for everyone! Plus why not take care of my body now, why wait later? That’s my question?!
Anyway, Here is my progress of my exercising journey and I will continue to update, update, update! Look out for more!
Be Blessed!!
