A New Beginning

Well - resolutions need to be made and broken but every once in a while you realize that you have to really exert yourself to get somewhere.

Today was my first morning with a personal trainer.  He arrived at 4:55 am and led me through a series of warm ups, core exercises and then weight activities for an hour.  I am completely a beginner with the core strength between a miniature marshmallow and a piece of cooked spaghetti but Bryan was encouraging and optimistic.  I was surprised that he had me using 6 and 8 pound weights, plus this bell ball thing.

After he left, Jet and I made the 2.2 mile circle walk.  She mentioned that we had not done this in a while -- it took some effort and she just glanced over at the 2 big rabbits we saw at the 1.75 mile mark and  nodded.  No effort to chase at all.  Well soon they will be in mortal danger as we build up our strength.
