53rd Monday

Last week I crossed the mark, got the notification on my watch, that I had meet my daily "move" goal for 365 days (760 active calories). So that means today was my 53rd Monday in a row trying to #MakeMondayCount. I am not sure when I started using the hashtag, but I remember when I broke my last streak of move goals, and I thought... just before pandemic hit... can I do a whole year? 

Yes, yes I can. I did. I might take Tuesday off, I might not, honestly not sure. I know today I skipped my morning spin class, but did make it to a Body Pump class and closed my move ring and I #MadeMondayCount. 

I have always liked to do the opposite, instead of hating Mondays, I thoughts let's make Monday my day! Let's set the tone for the week, let's push hard, let's get a ton done, let's bring Friday one day closer. Now I like Friday, but I also like Monday... 

So here is my quarterly blog... ha. Maybe I should write every Monday... but it has been rejuvenating to me, to see how many people say that my journey to better fitness inspired them. I love when people tell me my positive posts (and not just my #MariGems posts) motivate them. I think knowing that other people see what I do, has pushed me to be better, to work harder, and stay on the grind. 

Maybe I make Tuesday count tomorrow... hey maybe not. Either way you know, you can, and you can own Mondays, or any day of the week. If I can do it for 53 Mondays in a row, you can do this week.
