Move a Mile Challenge
What is this?
Pick a route that is exactly 1 mile outdoors (can also be done on a treadmill)
Walk, jog, or run and time how long it takes you.
Do this 3 times a week for 4 weeks.
Accept compliments from your mom about your newfound cardio fitness
Wait… But Why?
Is there anything more simple that just moving for a mile?
Nope. Literally nothing.
But Trav-
NOTHING I SAID!
I love this challenge because it’s i) easy to track ii) takes very little time, and iii) progress is nearly guaranteed.
TIP: Start slow as shit.
I’m serious. Like barely move.
Then, next time, go a LITTLE faster.
Do NOT… listen to me… do NOT try to increase your pace above a comfortable threshold until you get to week 3 or so.
You gotta be careful with cardio. It’s a mental game. If you go too hard you will hate it and quit.
Combat your weak-ass brain chemicals that will convince you to stop by making the slightest increases in pace from one session to the next.
Thank me later.
How do I track this?
Easiest way is on your “notes” app on your phone.
For example, just type…
-12/15/19 - 12:54
-12/17/19 - 11:51
-12/21/19 - 11:16
