I Surpassed My Original Goal

Long story short.....

I lived my life on a couch.

Joined a gym in June.

Couldn't walk on treadmill for more than ten minutes.

Rode stationary bike to make up a few extra cardio minutes.

Only DREAMED of elliptical.

Stayed religious to five to six days a week.......

Fast forward to Movember and December......

On elliptical ONE HOUR A DAY...

Reaching a 10k + on a daily basis (about a 9:40 minute mile consistently throughout workout).

Can't believe this 53 year old dog has learned new tricks!!!!!!

That's great to hear. Sounds like you've revived yourself into a fitness machine. Excellent work. Just goes to show we're never too old or too out of shape to get started and turn things around.

I hope you'll consider joining our fitness challenge thread. We do it every month. Even though the month is half over, it's not too late for you jump in.

That is great. You keep it up. The eliptical is also gentle on the joints.
