I’m about to go on my first walk in over a week! I haven’t been able to leave the house because of that unfortunate situation that has swept the world, but I’m finally cleared to leave and it means I’ll be able to take my dog for a walk. How fantastic is that?
I was really sad when I was first told that I had to stay home for a week without leaving. I have this step goal that means walking 100km per month every month, and as soon as I was told that I wouldn’t be allowed to leave the house, I knew there was going to be an issue. How can I walk 100km per month when a quarter of the month has been taken away from me? You can only imagine my disappointment. However, this year I’m trying not to be the type of person that dwells on things I can’t control. So what did I do? I pulled off my socks and committed myself to spending the entire week doing my foot care treatments. Cheltenham footpaths are hard on the feet and seeing as I wasn’t able to walk on them for a week, I decided to take the opportunity to actually properly look after my feet for a change. I usually neglect my feet because I never give myself time to relax them. I have to walk a minimum of 3km per day to reach my 100km per month goal. I’m going to have to double that for the next two weeks now that I’m free to be able to hit my kilometre goal. Oh well.
At least this time off from working has given my plantar fasciitis a rest. My feet are never going to get this much time to relax ever again so I hope they enjoyed it. Anyway, it’s time to leave for my first walk! Here’s hoping it goes well.
