Working On My Fitness

Another goal for 2018:  Find MY fitness!

First off-this has nothing to do with losing weight!

I used to love to run.  I'd go running at a local park here in SA and I loved it.  I loved being able to be outside because there was always something different to look at and people were constantly walking their dogs.  There was a dog park there so I'd start and end my runs by stretching in front of the park watching all the cute dogs run around and play.  It was great.  Until an unfortunate event happened there and then I didn't feel as safe anymore.

To me exercising has always been a solo job.  I prefer to be alone (though I don't mind occasional company) because it gives me time to clear my own mind without having any distractions.  Plus I can go at my own pace and I like to push myself and not have anyone else there.  It's selfish time for me.

After summer when the unfortunate event happened I stopped running and exercising all together.  I hate it.  But I also haven't done anything to change my situation.  So you can't complain about and not something and not do anything to change it so in 2018 I've decided that I'm going to find MY exercise.

This might mean that I go back to running and take more precautions or run with a partner.  But it also means that I'm going to try different things.  Maybe yoga, pilates, boxing, gym, a dance class...I don't know!  It'll have to be something that works with my work schedule (retail is tough, y'all).

Again, this has nothing to do with losing weight.  It has more to do with keeping some sort of balance and cleansing the mind.  I'll keep y'all posted!

What's your favorite exercise?
