This is it. The end. With only 5 more days to go. And my body failed me. I am unable to finish 75 Hard.
Not because I didn’t keep my commitments…
Not because I wasn’t feeling terrific….
Not because I wasn’t seeing the results….
My body simply failed me. I fell ill and could not do the daily workouts.
Sucks…
But it is what it is.
I must say that I am pretty proud of myself. I can honestly say that I did follow through and I benefited tremendously from the experience.
I completed two books…
I increased my walking pace and distance…
I lost 20 lbs and gained muscle…
I am drinking far more water than I ever had before…
I am sleeping better and my energy levels are definitely increasing…
So did I fail?
I think not.
I think I once again proved to myself that nothing is impossible, nothing is insurmountable. You simply need to make a decision, create a system and implement it – unwavering in your focus and determination to complete.
Once I recover, I will continue with the activities of the challenge as I believe they are very important in not only building a healthy lifestyle but also in building the mental fortitude that we all need in order to push ourselves past our pre-conceived limits, helping us to achieve our true potential. I won’t be as rigid on some exceptions, though – I will enjoy the occasional glass of wine.
