Today was day 2 of my 30 day walking challenge. My husband, who has been sick for the past two days with a fever around 101, decided that he too would walk with me. We pushed play and started walking with Leslie Sansone and her groupies. Let me just say she is waaaay too happy to be exercising. She is peppy and very encouraging and I'm glad she can't really see me flip her the bird when she says things like, "Ok, let's take it up a notch! Yeah, that's fun!!"
But I digress.
Back to my ill husband who was working out next to me and at the end of the first mile I was waiting for him to bend over, look up at me, grey, sweaty and with pitiful eyes, winded gasp out "Ok... that's good." Instead, he looked like he was enjoying the workout and was ready to go another mile. I wasn't about to let a sick guy continue on to mile 2 while I dropped out, grabbing my sides, mumbling breathless curses since I can't get enough air in my lungs to articulate real words. Noooo... sick dude is still going and that means I was going to keep going. We finished two miles and hey I survived. So, I guess that means I need to bump it up and do the two mile walk again tomorrow. The good news is that I did it!!
