Despite this site’s focus on my daily walk with the Lord, today I just wanted to briefly mention that today I started my daily walk with the treadmill. Despite a more consistent meal structure since we’ve brought Isaac home, my weight has ballooned quite a bit in the last 4 weeks or so, to the tune of 15 pounds or so.
Once upon a time, I had a jogging/walking regimen that was daily, and during that time, I lost 30 or 40 pounds. Of course, I was also a marching band director with all of the accompanying physical activity. I just find myself either sitting in my chair at work, or sitting in the rocking chair in the nursery, and not necessarily doing a lot more than that.
So, I’m starting with a daily hour of walking. My intent is to at some point add back in the jogging too, but for right now, it’s on the treadmill for an episode of some form of Sci-fi! I actually did some research on what the benefits of simply adding an hour of vigorous walking a day are, and was surprised to find that there are many added benefits to walking an hour a day.
So, let me throw down the gauntlet! Let’s walk an hour a day! If it’s not winter, go outside and prayer walk. Let 2010 be the year you started getting healthier!
