Day 3,024

Growth:

Just like I guessed yesterday, “Yesterday Mike’s” hard work really made “Today Mike’s” life much better today!

For reals, what a difference some preparations can make! Doing a few bonus steps yesterday when I had time really helped me be a better me today.

Appreciation:

This morning I ran with Becky. After work I lifted weights. This evening I went to yoga. 155 minutes of physical activity. In each I felt the results of my increased activity level from the past month and change. I’m feeling increased strength and flexibility and endurance – not too shabby! I’m grateful for the goals I’ve set for myself this year, they’re truly helping me grow into 24-4-47 (2024 is dedicated to the fitness of my next 47 years).

Presence:

As we went into final rest at yoga this evening I found myself smiling. Having all four of us at yoga, voluntarily, and sweating our butts off was ppretty awesome. It was time we shared as a family. It was an opportunity to help the boys find more ways to stay in shape and battle stress. It was us sharing something we enjoy doing. That moment when it all sunk in, all I could do was smile and soak it in.

Thanks!!!
