Exercise buddy in Newton Abbot/Torquay area??

katwal87

Hello!

I am looking for an exercise buddy in the Newton Abbot/Torquay area, I like walking and would love to have the confidence to begin jogging/running. I am awfully lazy and am hoping that if I buddy up with someone they will help me be more accountable and won't let me work my way out of doing some exercise!

Hiya,

Thanks!

I find it difficult to make myself do any exercise, I start work at 7.30am so unless I got up ridiculously early I can't really do much before work. I finish at 4.30pm but then have to get tea ready for the family, spend some time with my son after school. Once the kids are in bed is the only time I can really do it but by the evening I am shattered and have no energy left. Trying to convince myself that I can at least go for a 20-30 min walk in the evening, I enjoy walking when I do have the energy to do it lol!

I know the feeling, I work all day in a nursery with kids age 3-5 and then come home with my two, age 5 and 10 so i do sympathise, i've been getting up at 5.45 to do an hour or if i can't manage that i get hubby to take the kids upstairs after tea and watch a dvd while i do one . Davina does some good 30 min workouts, perhaps you could squeeze one in somewhere, you'll feel loads better for it. Until this summer I have been seriously overweight, obese if you go by the charts and never eaten fruit or veg until my 30's and now i feel like a new woman does take a commitment though.
