Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Being decently organized (but far from perfect) can help us anticipate challenging days in which exercise will become much more difficult to do.
Exercised through the weekend and Monday morning knowing today and yesterday would be long work days living in a hotel.
The benefit? No guilt.
And even joy in not exercising.
We’ve covered mental and physical, now scoot over to emotional (spiritual), click go.
Again a friend asked, “Did you run this morning?”
“No, today is another active rest day.”
For three consecutive weeks running has happened Monday through Friday.
It’s been years since this sort of purposeful rhythm graced my schedule.
Now there’s an anticipation for the weekend to end and a hunger to run on Monday morning.

Play the hand we’re dealt, sage advice. Sometimes we can stumble upon a random break leading to a discovery, a breakthrough, or simply an overdue reminder.
Wouldn’t it be interesting if the next time a friend asked, “Did you run this morning?”

The good news is I planned for this – active rest. Foresaw a tight turnaround and planned to not run this morning. Huge relief to not have to feel guilt for not exercising – on top of the drain from only three hours sleep.
Oh, and did I mention shell shocked? Confused? Doesn’t make sense? What?

Do you ever amaze or astonish yourself? Being in Tallahassee for the past three days, I planned on three days of active rest– purposefully not exercising. This is different from meaning to, but not.
None of the other six adult chaperone’s exercised during these three days either. Pretty sure only one of us was purposeful.
