One of my road blocks in the past to exercise was work out clothing.
At the Y in my favorite Gym Girl Ultra Skirt. |
The bigger problem was, the "I can't go to the gym without the proper clothing" road block. I'd forget my bag, a piece of clothing or forget to pack, and then justify that as a reason to skip going.
Maybe it's because the Y is a different than gyms I've been in before, but I noticed there are plenty of people walking the track in street clothing.
Now if I forget something, I still go, I just walk. Though I'm fairly certain I have seen someone running the track in jeans and sandals.
As minor as this is and as obvious as the solution is, this was seriously a road block to getting to the gym and working out.
Today I just walked 3.1 miles after my morning shift and before my appointment with my chiropractor.
Pushing myself to run or walk 100 miles in February without the assistance of a marathon training plan has brought many of my excuses into the clear for me to confront them. I'll be better off for having done this challenge.
