Getting started is often the hardest part. Commit to getting 1% better each day. Maybe that’s committing to a 20 minute walk a few times a week or a similar aerobic activity. If you live in a city try walking to a store you otherwise would have driven to or taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Small commitments like putting your gym shoes on when you get home instead of sitting down can prevent us from pushing our exercise goals further down the road. What are some ideas you guys have for getting started?

After being diagnosed with PTSD + losing my job of 14 years. I found simply walking outside provided so much relief. I felt good afterwards. I had more energy, my mental mood increased, I connected to fellow walkers by simply saying good morning, the fresh air + sun spoke to my senses rather than untamed thoughts.
There is something about those small connections during runs or rides that makes the morning a little better. A "good morning" or "hello" accompanied by a smile can go a long way to letting someone know they are alive and seen.
