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.

Days 345 to 349 - The Invasion

This is the week it all fell apart - the bugs invaded our house.  It started with Kade who got the flu and was home from school for 3 days and then it hit Sean.  Made this weeks physical activities a little more challenging to fit in - but don't worry it all worked out!
 
Monday - Day 345 - Kade was up all night so I did not get out of bed early to get to Active Life - I needed the extra time for sleep so I could function for work.  Did not get out of the house until late in the evening and was so tired I only managed a brisk evening walk.
 
Tuesday - Day 346 - again not much sleep but decided to get my butt to Active Life, since I was awake anyway, so that I did not have to worry all day about when I would get my exercise in.
 
Wednesday - Day 347 - another day home with Kade and I am not sure if it is the lack of sleep or the fact that Kade has basically been attached to me for three days but now I don't feel great - decided to just walk after dinner tonight was not in the mood for a run.
 
Thursday - Day 348 - got a great sleep - well better than the last three nights - and was ready to get a great workout in at Active Life - it was a great one!
 
Friday - Day 349 - now Sean is sick - came home from work yesterday afternoon and went right to bed.  I was good all day and then I started to get the chills in the evening - of course just before I was planning on getting in a good run - could only manage a fast paced 50 minute walk.
