By the exercise bug that is. I have been going to the gym off and on for years. During the last 3 months I have been going faithfully 3 days a week and more lately. Monday I woke up in a grumpy mood and did not feel like being cooped up in a gym. So I dawned my shoes, jacket, gloves and iPod and down the road I went. It is exactly one mile from my driveway to the second stop sign up the road. I walked the first quarter mile, ran the next 3/4 then it was time to turn around and come back.
I briskly walked most of the way while clearing my head and getting ready to face the day. I was feeling much better and enjoying the sun on my face and the cool air against my sweaty skin. I was glad I had my phone with me because the sunrise was spectacular. I had made the perfect decision and God rewarded me with this beautiful view.
I sprinted from the bottom of my hill up to the driveway of my neighbor...the goal is my driveway. The hill is pretty steep and it was a great way to finish strong. I have recently started a Zumba class two days a week in additional to my regular work out schedule. And I have to say...it is a total BLAST!
Frugal tip: running on the road is FREE, push-ups & sit-ups are FREE, walking in the mall is FREE...you can get fit for FREE

I wish I could get 'bitten'. I just hate to exercise. I've always envied people who enjoy it and want to do it. It would make exercising so much easier.
WOW I wished I had your energy and drive!! GREAT job my dear ... I'm very proud of you for sticking with this routine ... especially with everything else you have going on in your life!
But you are right ... it was the right decision and yes, God was watching and rewarded you with this beautiful sunrise! I'm sure it made you smile ... I know it made me smile!!
