Day 1

Happy to report that I went for a morning walk today. So far step count is around 4800. Went to Upvan lake. While it was nice, felt that it wasnt quite worth the while. But good that I did it against the chatter in my head. I want to continue doing things I am scared of.

The walk itself was nice. Just when I thought I was halfway around the lake, I found I was nearly done. So walked on the road a bit more afterwards. There were a few ups. But wasnt tired too much. Saw quite a few folks running/walking around. Good feeling that was. Somehow I didn't look much at the lake when near the lake. I suppose I was too worried about not losing my footing on the wet pavement.

All in all, good feeling about being done. Best of luck to me for tomorrow.

Physically active

I want to become physically active. I was reading Anu Vaidyanathan's anywhere but home. It makes me want to push myself physically. I used to love working out in Bangalore with S. While that magic never quite reappeared, I enjoyed walking hugely for a few months after buying the fitbit. Now I want to start again.

I know this much that I will start with walking. I don't know how much outdoors and if any indoors. The competitions helped me last time. Can I dare to run? Maybe a c25k? We will see. I hated myself for not trying Zumba. How can I ensure that I give myself a chance? Only I can do it. I will give it my best.

I will go for a walk tomorrow and I will check in here. Best of luck me!
