Thursday - last work day of the week

Thursday was a pretty normal day.  Same old walking and balance ball workouts.

work walk

I walked 1.82 miles in 34:37 minutes.  Today was a rough day for the balance ball and actually walking also.  It was tough to push myself today.

I'm wondering if I'm pushing too hard.  I know that probably sounds lame, but does your body know when it needs some down time?  I believe it does.  And being my age, I probably need a bit more than someone in a younger age group.

Does that sound right?  I need some help here.

So after work, I did not go biking.  Everyone was asking why I haven't ridden my new bike yet and the only explanation I can give is that I'm beat.  (and I had already planned my maiden ride for Friday)

Does anyone else ever get this way?  I want to keep moving and in the "movement", get fit and lose weight.  But when I get feeling like I did today, I fear that I won't reach my goals.


One good thing was, in the evening, I saw that I was only at 9100 steps on my fitbit.  So I did step that up and cross the 10,000 step line.  That made me feel good.  That's a plus, right?

Tomorrow, maiden bike ride!
