Happy Father's Day!

Week 3 mid-week recap: First of all, after only 2.5 weeks I have begun to slack on the blog updates. This blog has really been a strong motivating factor - the thought of reporting a failure shaming me into working out. So going forward I will do my best to check in more frequently.

As far as exercise goes for the week, so far so good. After taking Thursday and Friday off I stepped it up this weekend with 2 sweat-inducing runs in the late spring heat. As long as I make some time to workout either tomorrow or Tuesday I will have succeeded in this week's mission. During today's run, which was challenging but not torture and at moments even enjoyable, I felt for the first time that exercise could kinda maybe perhaps actually become part of my life. At this early stage I certainly have more doubt than confidence in myself but I will just keep at it and see what happens.

My dad is also a huge exercise inspiration. He has made exercise and good health a priority in his life.  And despite working long hours, he incorporates exercise into his daily routine even getting up some days at 5am to get in his workout before going to work.  He is also my biggest supporter (together with my mom and Rob of course) and fan of the Lia in Progress Project. Happy Father's Day Dad! I love you.
