Devote yourself to something so daring even you can’t believe that you are doing it – Oprah Winfrey
If you had told me last year that I would be participating in a fitness study and enjoying it I would have told you that you were dreaming. Yes, I can't believe I am doing it!
Yes, this is my third week in the Brest Cancer Beta fitness study and all is going well. I seem to be improving very slowly however it is really hard to tell. The only measure that I can really see if the length of time that I and do my aerobic training and my heart rate during that time. I sure hope it is doing something to my body as well but not sure what at this point! The results will take one year so it's a bit like waiting for Christmas morning to come when you were a child.
The shoe issue seems to have solved itself so I feel that the shoes that I have now are the ones for these little Cinderella feet! I am hoping that these shoes are going to transform me as Cinderella was transformed. I'm not looking for the prince (I got one already), for the pumpkin coach (I have my Nissan Versa already) or the other princess trimmings (diamonds) however I do hope that this effort that I am putting in will make a difference in my health and will contribute to the health of my friends daughters and grand daughters. This is my only wish. I hope that it is not to much to ask for.
I met Vicky while on the treadmill. She is a realtor and was randomized for the 1 hour portion of the study and she is in her 1st week. She is motivated and excited to be in the program as well. It is great to meet so many people with a common goal. It is very inspiring and motivating!
Reflections on my journey in my 12 months of fitness. Moving from the couch to the stairmaster, running and other activities.
