This is just a quick post to say I DID IT!
I hit the 224 workout mark in the 224 workouts in 2024.
I did it on a bike commuting day when I rode to work and then biked to physio after work and then home. I like that total daily distance. When I don’t have physio after work I sometimes have to take the long way to work just to get 10 km in for the day.
My actual goal for the year–now that I’ve met the official goal of 224–is 400 workouts for 2024. In a way, it’s been easy so far. It’s a lot of regularly scheduled physiotherapy appointments, a lot of personal training, and then a lot of bike commuting and longer dog walks.
I’m still hoping to branch out–yoga, swimming, dancing, longer road bike rides, antigravity fitness, canoeing and sailing–but in a year where there’s been a lot that’s overwhelming on the home and work front, it feels good to steadily chug along with the essentials.
Looking ahead to August, it’s work that will be extra busy as the Dean’s office gears up for a new academic year, and I’ve got my own teaching and writing deadlines to meet. As usual, wish me luck!
