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.

One Hundred Days

Today is a milestone - I have kept my New Years Resolution for 100 days!!!!!  So today I did 100 minutes of physical activity and I tried a new sport.

I started the day with a 10 km/1 hour run with Roxanne bright and early - it was a windy cold one but we made it through none the less.  I also finally got myself some new running shoes - boy they cost a fortune!!  But I figure my feet and knees are worth it - might try them out tomorrow :)

Then after dinner Sean took me for my first road ride.  I was a little nervous but it was a really nice ride - not many cars on the road, still a bit windy which wasn't that bad - slowed us down a little!  We just did a big loop that took us 40 minutes.  It was fun and I think Sean really enjoyed showing me the ropes!

So now only 266 days to go - over 1/4 of the way done!  So far so good :)
