Mental Toughness?!

   I wonder if the ability to run on a treadmill in a garage, with no media, and only a phone in case of an emergency call, for long periods of time is a way to train mental toughness? It can be difficult to stay interested! However; I am currently driven!
   Yesterday I took the day off not because I wanted to really, but I actually only had one hour of free time throughout the entire day from 5:30am to 9:30pm! It was a packed out day of ministry!! I always tell people be thankful you are busy! It beats the alternative!
  Today is a bit different. I have some time available so I put in a 70 minute GA (general aerobic) run. Finishing out at 7.01 miles. That's a total of 180 minutes so far this week and 19.01 treadmiles! I'm closing in on the 10 pound total of weight drop. That is a huge amount of weight! And in all reality I beat'cha I could lose another 10!
   I wish I had some pics to post before and after...it's difficult to tell anyway, most people thought I was skinny to begin with and even though I've dropped 10lbs no one has noticed except Sandy because she sees me........
  Peace!!

Agreed, better to be busy than sitting there like a bump on a log.

Great mileage so far this week, and woohoo for nearly 10 lbs!

I finally found some motivation and got the scale moving in the right direction again - phew. Thanks for the inspiration!

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
