Mentally, I feel good. Physically, I feel exhausted. I am still can’t get over the fact that I walked 7 miles today. My goal for the day was just to finish it. But then this morning when I was setting up my Runkeeper to start I decided that I wanted to finish in two hours. I barely made it. I love my Runkeeper app. I set it up so every 1/2 mile it would tell me my distance and pace. That kept me motivated and on track.
I feel so happy with my time. I busted my hump. I only stopped once for GU and water break. I don’t know if it’s a placebo effect but as soon as I ate my second GU (3.5 miles in) I felt energized. I know it doesn’t work that fast.
While walking I saw this couple & took a picture of them. I am not a stalker but I was observing how they were with each other. It’s something that I want in the future. I want that so much & I am working hard towards one day achieving the confidence to put myself out there.
I took my handheld water bottle with me today and I have to say that it bothered me. While I appreciate having it with me when I need water, I don’t like having to carry something in my hands while walking. I just need to get used to it.
Check out all those steps… whoo hoo!
