T.G.I.(H).F.
Thank Goodness I (Have) Friends! Exercise friends, that is!
Looking back at our wonderful H3 Intern, Allie’s post about the ‘Attitude of Gratitude’, I realized how thankful I am for my exercise buds.
Working in an environment where everyone’s main goal is living a healthy lifestyle, it may seem as though it’s never a struggle to keep up. However, we are ALL human, and have the occasional bad day. Well, I recently lost motivation of ALL things healthy due to an injury.
Fortunately, I had a motivated exercise bud to push me back into the routine. Without the accountability from others, I would have a hard time pulling myself out of the warmth of my bed at 6:00 a.m. for a 4 mile run.
Whether you are going to the gym, taking a class or going for an afternoon walk, knowing you have someone counting on you – makes it a lot more likely that you will commit to exercise and follow through.
So, this weekend, call a friend and set a date — an exercise date!
