So as we all head into the new year we are all faced with the concept of New Years resolutions. Oh I have made
them before only to fall short of my goal as life (family and work) take over my good intentions. So this year I decided to get my friend Angela involved in my New Year resolution so that I have to be accountable to someone other than myself. Oh, I guess this would be a good place to tell you what my New Years Resolutionis.........well the plan is to be physically active for a minimum of 30 minutes for all 365 days of the year. That is right every single day of 2012. So now you might be asking why are you blogging about it? Well Angela and I were trying to figure out how to keep each other on track, she lives in London and I live in Collingwood. We tried google calendar but that was really frustrating and then Angela sent me an excel sheet that had dates on it and that is not that much fun. So when I was snowshoeing the other day I thought to myself maybe I should blog about our efforts - make us accountable not only to each other but anyone else who might be interested in what we are up to. So that is the beginning of this blog I hope you enjoy and I look forward to your comments.

Day 82, 83 & 84 - So Tired

Well the move is officially over - well all our stuff is out of the house in Clarksburg - we now have to find room for it all - it really is amazing how much stuff we collected over 13 years! 

The rest of the week included lots of moving and lots of physical activity but I still managed to fit in my minimum 30 minutes of timed physical activity.

Thursday - Day 82 - was my early morning workout at Active Life - always a great way to wake up.  I also fit in a 30 minute run on the treadmill over lunch - in between moving a ton of junk!

Friday - Day 83 - went to the YMCA early in the morning for a spin class - I did not know that the spin class was half a yoga class.  I really want to add Yoga to my workouts but I really wanted some hard core cardio this morning.  So when the 30 minutes of the spin class was over I turned up Matthew's ipod and continued on my own for another 30 minutes.  I then went to the treadmill for an additional little push - was aiming for 15 minutes but ended up pushing it to 30 minutes.  Then to the house in Clarksburg for one last pick up.  The house is officially not ours anymore - closed at 2pm - 13 years for great memories - married, 2 kids, a dog, 2 more university degrees and lots of great friends :)

Saturday - Day 84 - I am so tired - everything has finally caught up to me!  My first 30 minutes of physical activity was going to pick up my car from where I left it last night.  Out with some great friends and Sean and I were not able to drive home - so first thing this morning was my "clear my head' and "get the car" walk.  I am now heading out for a little 30 minute light job to wake myself up before we head out to a birthday party :)
