So, let's review some things I learned that first week:
- Lesson 1: Set aside time at the beginning of the week, with at least one contingency time (in case something comes up).
- The biggest reason I neither reached my target that first week, nor kept up the workout until this past week, was I didn't have the foresight to set aside the time ahead of time.
- Lesson 2: When planning a workout take all variables into account and plan accordingly.
- In my case, I have a toddler. As such, if I am going to take him on my "Pokemon: Go Workout" I have to be sure he's up for it. The one time I took him out, it didn't end well. I grossly overestimated his patience and how long he would put up with the cold, plus it was before his nap time... like I said, it didn't end well. BE MINDFUL OF VARIABLES.
- Lesson 3: If, after all is considered, the target goal (20k in this case) is not feasible (that first week I tried I still had school as well as being a stay-at-home dad), then adjust the target.
- This will no longer be necessary for this particular workout, but I may need to implement in the future.
