Today I happened to look at the odometer reading (total distance traveled) while riding my bike and noticed that I had just passed the 1000 mile mark! WooHoo!
Let’s think about what this means…
One year ago, practically to the date – I remember having a real struggle with a 30 Day Challenge I had set for myself to walk 60 minutes a day. I hadn’t really done much physically in a long while at this point and my goal was to get moving again! At that point, I remember feeling overwhelmed (alarmed!) that I really couldn’t walk for 60 minutes (or even 30) without feeling really bad. I did stick with that challenge by doing 4 15 minute walks each day until I felt that I could do 30 minutes at a time.
So, fast forward to today’s big Aha! moment – 😉
The fact that I’ve (joyfully!) ridden my bike for 1000+ miles in just over 3 months is pretty amazing to me!
I’m so happy that I’ve found a form of exercise that I enjoy this much and encourage you to try to find something that you really look forward to doing as well.
