Goals and Such the Slow and Steady Way

March was my second month of regular exercise. I made some goals that I thought were reasonable, though I didn't actually meet them. But here is my outcome:

400 actual /600 desired minutes of exercise

59.32 actual /90 desired miles of walking or biking

I am not discouraged, this is more than I did in February so I have progressed forward. I started out with my stationary recumbent bike and would be thrilled to burst up to 18mph. Now I can reach 26mph during a burst - my kids think I am pretty amazing! I certainly can't maintain it but I can get up there. At the beginning I thought a heart rate of 130-135 was work, now I easily maintain around 145bpm. I love to see that my heart is stronger and improving!!!

Just the fact that I have kept this up for 2 months is better than the past. So I will start April with the same goals and intend to get even closer and hopefully meet them this time. I know that I will be further along than I was last month and will be strong than I am today. What about you, how will your health be different in one month?
