Change it up!

I REALLY worked hard in the gym this past week and I almost felt like I may had overdone it a little bit.  I wanted a bit of a "change of scenery" today and so I woke up early and headed to Tempe.  My mom was here with me visiting and so we decided to walk around Tempe Town Lake and then up "A" mountain.

It was much shorter than I remember as a child & teen. With that said, there is a steeper trail up and it was a GREAT workout!  There were LOTS of people there getting their hearts pumping.  Then there is a great reward waiting for you at the top.  The view of Tempe to the South and Phoenix to the West. It was a great morning workout!

We walked around the Healing Field exhibit on the lawn at Tempe Town Lake to see the 3000 flags that represent the lives lost on 9/11. I was able to see Ivhan's flag ( a member of my church who perished that day).  Very touching!  We got lots of steps in and I almost had my 10k steps after leaving there that morning.

The key is to change it up every once in a while and to always KEEP MOVING!
