My thighs are so sore today. After not working out for months, I think I’ve been pushing myself too hard these past 2 days. Ouch ouch ouch!

I decided to make today a rest day, but then at 11 PM I noticed that my pedometer was only at around 8,500 steps. My daily goal is 10,000 steps with 30 minutes of aerobic steps (quicker-paced steps as recorded by my pedometer). I had one hour before the count resets and despite my aching legs, I slid on some ankle wraps, put on my rocker bottom sneakers, and grabbed a couple of 3-lb dumbbells. I spent the next 40 minutes jogging, hopping and dancing in my living room while watching the news. With 10 minutes to spare, I had surpassed my 10,000-steps goal and logged 41 minutes of aerobic steps. I am so happy I did it!
