On Tuesday I did not feel like working out at all.

I didn’t have time to do anything in the morning before work, and when I came home I just wanted to watch the Mets and relax.

But I had to get in a workout to continue my streak for the Peloton 100 Day Challenge, so I did a 5-minute core workout.

It was not my finest effort.

But that’s the good and bad thing about this challenge, which I completed yesterday, which also means I achieved the first of my 2025 goals:

The good is it kept me motivated to do workouts even when I didn’t feel like it.

The bad is that there is no reason I had to do a minor 5-minute workout on Tuesday. (So, more good: Now I no longer have to squeeze in a workout like that when I don’t feel like it.)

I feel like I played out this 100-day streak pretty well, because there were not many days in these 100 days that were like Tuesday.

I had a pretty good plan most of the time.

You may remember I mixed in the meditation early on in the year.

And then I finished off these first few months-plus with the 5k training program, which has been great - it really provided a structure to my workouts these past six weeks, especially once I had to work around my out-of-the-house job and my routine got flipped on its head.

Bonus Peloton badge: This was my first 100-day streak of any kind. (I will not be advancing much further, unfortunately.)

The other cool thing about this 100 days is it filled the first part of the calendar year, which was the least exciting part of the calendar as far as my exercise life.

I knew once the 100 days ended we’d be heading into BAA 5K time and the Boston Marathon, and ramping up the training for the BAA 10K and then marathon training.

So, I feel good about achieving one of the goals I set for 2025.

But I’m even more excited that it was really a launching pad to get to some of these other goals that are now much closer here approaching mid-April than when we first set the goals in January.
