Jogging Commute
How do you fit exercise into a busy day?
Plan and prioritize!
Last night Tate and I talked about making exercise a priority today, despite seeing patients at the clinic from 7:45am-6:15pm, and so we set forth making plans to move.
First order of attack, we walked the morning commute, coffee in hand. 1.6 miles and fresh air? Check.
Tate even did a little resistance training on the way by carrying a backpack full of our running shoes and clothes. Phase Two of our plan involves a 3.5 mile jog home on our lunch break.
After a quick shower and lunch we’ll bike back to work, Phase Three A.
Biking between home and the clinic actually takes the same amount of time as driving so it’s really a no brainer. Plus I LOVE the feeling of biking, it’s like flying when you cruise down one of Cville famous hills.
I am most looking forward to Phase Three B, which involves an after-work bike ride to have drinks with some girl-friends. It’s supposed to hit upper 70’s here today and I know a little social hour on the porch will start my weekend off just right.
On the topic of starting the weekend off right, I have gotten some requests from local readers to add a weekend Core Four class.

Even if you don’t have time to run at lunch or can’t walk to work, remember that every little bit counts! There are always work jacks…
