Workout results 6/30


"The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender." - Vince Lombardi

Today was wonderful. It kept my workout this morning light but still managed to get a good burn in and I felt accomplished. After lunch I headed to the pool for a swim and was pleased to see my times where good even though I was not pushing it 100%. My slow or easy pace is far faster than my race pace just a few months ago. It is always nice to see improvements. It keeps me coming back day after day knowing that someday I will reach my goals if I keep pressing on!

I love your daily goals.
I have similar goals each day. I've never written them down but mine are very similar: 1G water, vitamin, foam roller stretches, calorie counting. I am right there with you!

Congrats on your weight loss.
