One Task Accomplished

This week I finished one of my black belt challenge goals.  I have reached 1,000 miles.  I cannot express how flabbergasted, excited, and happy I am in words.  When I first started the black belt challenge I did not know if I could do any of the challenges.  I just decided I would try everyday to work towards those end goals.  It really did seem like an impossible mountain to climb.  It seemed like 1,000 miles could never be reached to the top.  I just started slow with walking the dog.  The dog needs to be walked twice a day 2-3 miles everyday.  I walked him everyday except when I was sick, injured, or on vacation.  A lot of my miles came from walking him everyday.  The picture is him.  He is almost a year.  As time went by I did more miles biking on the weekends.  Many of my miles came from biking.  I did do hiking, swimming, and skiing in the different seasons of the year.  Those activities added a few miles here or there.  It became easy to exercise because it is a daily part of my life.  I enjoy being outside chatting with people, listening to nature, and getting fresh air.  I have to say this is the most amount of exercise I have done in my life.  I feel much more healthy because of it.  I will continue to exercise and log it.  I still have more tasks to finish on this black belt challenge.  This is a first of many accomplishments I will achieve this year.
