365 Days of Activity: Day 4
Update:
I got through the weekend! Nothing can hold me back.
My left hip (specifically my IT band) got really tight Friday night, and I’ve been dealing with that since then: ice, ibuprofen, stretching, and massage. I changed how I sleep to accomodate more hip mobility. This all seems to have helped, and I’ve been able to keep up my routine, regardless.
I’ve noticed that while I did not make any commitments concerning diet, I do seek out healthier items when I’m being active. I’m ok with this.

I’ve been thinking about why else I was so motivated to do this. I’m too young to be this worried about my future mobility. Why am I so determined to take this on? I took myself on a date Saturday night (treat yoself), and it came to me: I haven’t really challenged myself outside of work since I finished grad school. That was over a year ago. I was pushing my mind and had to be very organized to get everything done. It’s been nice to have some downtime, but I really want to push myself again. This is an opportunity to do that. Push my body and my will.
My activity is already done for the day. Let’s keep going. Gotta be organized and push. I’m gonna chug some water and get back to work. More updates soon.
