It's Just 30 minutes!!

It's just 30 minutes...It is just 30 minutes...It IS JUST 30 minutes...AND I'm out the door!

So Carla and I set a goal to wake-up every morning at 5:30 AM to do just 30-40 minutes of cardio. We were suppose to start on Monday...we are still trying lol..a good thing is that even though we didn't wake-up on Monday we went for a walk/run in the evening, so we did do our 30 minutes just not when we planned for it.

Day two comes along and we still didn't wake up at 5:30 AM. I had a really jam packed day and came home to many other things I needed to take care of. When I was driving home I was telling myself "you have to go for a walk, it's just 30 minutes" then I stopped at the market to buy some fish for Elba and I told myself "when you get home, you have to go for a walk, it's just 30 minutes". I got home with a load of bags, washed the dishes, put the away food, and seasoned the fish that needed to marinate for 15-20 minutes in this aromatic ginger Asian sauce I whipped together.

Then I thought of all thing I still needed to do, I paused and I said aloud, "It's just 30 minutes J, just 30 minutes J... then I drank a glass a water, ran into my room, changed and put on my sneakers and said to myself "it's just 30 minutes...it IS JUST 30 minutes and ran down the stairs and walked out the door, one foot in front of the other, became another, and another, and another, fresh air in my lungs...sigh.. suspiro (en español)...I smell burning wood (reminds me of DR, sigh)...someone is cooking shrimp with garlic..yum!...let me stop at the market for some berries for tomorrow..back on the road...wow!! I'm home..30 minutes became 45 minutes of cardio...I did it! And that's day two of cardio. Hurray!

GOAL: Breath the outdoors "just for 30 minutes" every single day that you can! It IS JUST 30 minutes. Even if you don't make it when planned, don't give up, make it your plan, it's just 30 minutes. :)
