When your husband mows and grooms the back field path where you run, and he asks about your weekly schedule to help you find more time for running, and maybe he even comments on how you need new running shoes… is he calling you fat? Maybe. It certainly feels that way for a minute. Or, as Handsome recently said (rather defensively), he just knows that you’re in a much better mood when you run regularly.
He’s absolutely right.
Anyway.
The point is not just to do some slimming; it’s to stretch some boundaries. Experience those feelings of accomplishment and transformation.
The slimming will happen naturally because with that much consistent activity and challenge, your body will crave better food and more water. and you’ll be shocked at what changes happen in two weeks.
“Lack of activity destroys the good condition
of every human being,
while movement and methodical physical exercise
save it and preserve it.”

Marie, thank you! You have inspired me to do an IRON GOAT of my own! I have several health issues that I have to work around, but I have challenged myself to walk 26 miles the month of July. I did 12 miles in June by walking every day. Looking forward to hearing about your updates!
