Today's 10 minute walk is helping you keep your fitness promise, which adds another link

to a growing fitness chain.

I'm walking as I tend to do early morning just a moment ago, just a moment before I started walking

I could hear in the distance one of those large

trash trucks picking up one of those large trash containers behind a business

or or restaurant and then the truck backing up with the beep beep beep, beep. Other than that, it's going to be a quiet walk this morning.

I'm awake, barely, and the rest of Myrtle Beach is either asleep

or just waking up and getting that coffee going.

Yesterday I told you about Angie and Angie's fitness journey,

which began around the same time this podcast did.

She was one of the first people who reached out and said she was listening,

that the podcast was bringing her value, was helping her. And she really latched onto the idea of a fitness promise

and built a fitness chain of over 250 days.

And then there was an injury, Angie had to push paws on her fitness chain.

And it was so discouraging because for the first time in Angie's life, she was succeeding at fitness.

She was moving forward. There was momentum. She was doing something hard

that she had never done before, that she had never had success with before. And that's what that

fitness chain represented. It was, I'm doing a hard thing. I'm succeeding. I'm winning and I've

never won at this before. So having to break that chain was really discouraging for Angie.

And she didn't have to sit out long to recover from the injury, but long enough.

And she started a new fitness chain, continued building the fitness momentum.

And she ended 2022 strong, so strong that she set a really big goal for 2023.
