Last year, after finishing my 31 days of exercise challenge, I wrote:

“Tired legs, tired arms… Pooh sticks thrown off a bridge show more skill in the water than I did [swimming] this morning. I was very glad to finish the swim and, with it, the challenge.”

Today, I feel good, and I feel I have benefitted from trying some form of stretching each day. So much so, I’ll be continuing the challenge tomorrow by incorporating some form of stretching each day into my routine.

Most importantly, I started the challenge because I felt pain in my right hip, and, today, I can report I have not felt any pain or discomfort for the last two weeks. Yay!

Who’d have guessed it? Taking care of yourself and trying not to run, bike or swim your body into the ground, is actually a good thing to do! 🙂
