Day 57

The method I used today was good. Really good. I really liked it. This is what happened: Run for a few minutes, stop and do some burpees; run for a few minutes, stop and do some burpees; run for a few minutes, stop and do some burpees. You get the idea. It worked out pretty well! If I was tired of running, I wanted to do burpees. Then when I was tired of burpees, I wanted to run!

And I did all of this outside! I have pretty much overcome my aversion to burpeeing outside. It is just so gorgeous out that I can't bear to go to the gym-- yuck! I think I also feel like there is a little camaraderie out there in the sunshine now -- people are exercising all over the place. There was a guy sprinting while dragging a tire, a man doing tai chi in the park, and on one of my burpee stops today, a girl was sitting on a yoga mat nearby. She wasn't doing yoga, but I will give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that she had been doing yoga and not just staring at me the whole time I was out there. That was slightly uncomfortable, but I just told myself, she is just tired from all the yoga she just did and just happens to be facing my direction; it's not that I look like a cook doing this crazy exercise out in the middle of everything.
