Monday Blues

I was up early and fired up to walk after yesterday's heavy rain. Today was bright and sunny and I enthusiastically started my walk almost flying, which I found out later, not good. I was too ambitious. I made the mistake of skipping my warm-up 5 minutes walk and sort of flew into brisk walk. after 10 minutes, I panted and my legs were strained. I lost my rhythm and had to slow down. So I eased it off with my normal pace and walked home.

Lesson learned today: take it easy and do not get overzealous.

Milestone for the day: I beat the Monday blues. For the first time in many years, it was easy to get out of the bed without wishing it was still Sunday.
