A Mile A Day: Day 17
I have no idea whether it’s Day 2 of Whole30 or the mom who came in behind me this week at daycare simultaneously dripping and sniffing snot, but I am feeling whooped today. The weather isn’t helping matters either. “Unseasonably warm” would not paint a clear enough picture for you. It’s HOT. We’re desperately running…

A Mile A Day: Day 16
A family walk complete with carried tricycle. I carried. And Day 1 of Whole30. A success.

A Mile A Day: Day 15
I’m doing it, ya’ll! I am halfway to my goal today and already plotting ways to keep up some sort of daily routine. It’s life giving. Breathing fresh air. Soaking up the sun. Feeling the stretch of muscles and ligaments. Today’s walk was sloooooow. I doubled back for a short bit after I realized a…

A Mile A Day: Day 14

A Mile A Day: Day 12
I had some extra time yesterday so Winston and I abandoned the usual path for a 3 mile walk. There’s a big difference between 1 and 3! I keep thinking that it’s just walking so I can add miles without a thought but yesterday proves me wrong. My knees! On the plus side, I rediscovered…

A Mile A Day: Day 10
I’m officially 1/3 of the way through this self-imposed challenge! I walked up to a local soccer game with my family and back. The trip was short of a mile but in the same way we eyeball a serving size of [insert guilty pleasure here], I was tempted to count it. The anxiety of the…

A Mile A Day: Day 8
If you are wondering how I could possibly say anything new about walking nearly the same mile for 30 days, I assure you, you’re not alone. I’m actually wondering that myself. The frost was still on the grass this morning so that’s something. There was slightly more traffic. There were certainly more stubborn stops by my territory-marking…
