My First NSV

So I usually have a walking buddy. I woke up yesterday with a lot of energy and decided to do my walking (usually 1-2mi a day) around noon. I called my friend to see if she wanted to go, but she was at a birthday party. She told me she would go later, but I told her I was going then while I had the motivation. The trail I walk is beautiful, along the Mississippi River. There is a 10,000 step program, around 5 mi or so. Like I said, I usually just do 1-2mi since I don't have a lot of time. Yesterday was different. I walked the whole thing without stopping. And I noticed my times are getting better. I did it all in 1hr 25min. I'm working my way up to jogging, and today just might be the day I start!

Also, since I wasn't thinking yesterday, I got sunburned on my face. I'm hoping it will turn tan, so I guess 2 NSV! :laugh:

    That's great! You really have a couple of NSVs rolled into one there, as even the fact that you went without your walking buddy shows motivation and determination! Great job! :)

    Thank you! I didn't even think about not going with my buddy as a victory! I just think it passes the time faster when you're with someone, lol!

    The house brand of CVS sunscreen has a smell I like, and it's fairly cheap.
