Day Nine - The Sabbath Revisited

Day Seven - Walked at a 3.0 backward for the entire mile.  Took 20 minutes.  Noticed that when I walked forward my muscles were more willing to do what I commanded them to do.  Thoughts:  I am an adrenaline junkie and need change.  It's been inversion fog all week and 20 degrees.

Day Eight - Went to Rec Center with the kids.  While they swam I ran for 1 mile on the track in UNDER 10 MINUTES!!  Very happy.  Thoughts:  I love having the Rec Center as a little oasis in the winter.  How nice it is to go run and then soak in a warm pool playing with my kids with all the inversion gunk.

Today - After doing a mile a day all week, plus all the wieghts, sit-ups, etc. I have realized that my body NEEDS REST at least one day a week.  Not being above reproach, I will make a revised commitment to walk 1 mile every day and rest on the Sabbath.  Thoughts:  I feel better about this decision.  Some things can't be explained logically - they just feel right.
