Day 9 – Week 2 – 2 mins

Back on the bosu today for two mins. The weather has turned lovely here in London, which means I should be getting outside for my cardio days – but somehow even I feel it is a bit silly to go outside for only two minutes. That would involve having to put my outside shoes on, which is one more excuse I could use to trick myself out of exercise. So I think I will stay inside until I get up to five minutes – and then it will quite the reward for making it that far to get myself out in the fresh air. Of course, being England, I may miss the summer all together if I do that! Our summers have been known to be remarkably brief.

To explain the outside and inside shoes concept….before starting this process I realised my usual trainers were looking decidedly grubby. The park I like to walk in has some pretty muddy bits. So rather than think, “Oh no, I can’t get on the bosu until I’ve cleaned the mud off my trainers” and give myself another excuse not to do it, I just bought a new pair of shoes that are for inside exercise only.  Works a treat!

A big welcome to Pat, who is joining me on the journey, I’m hoping she’ll keep us up to date with what she does with her ‘minutes’ from time to time as well…
