Setting a goal to keep it.

I started off running since I was in grade 2 in high school. But I did not know the importance to release calf muscle which is much tight now and is not suitable for dress and pants. Therefore on 27th, April 2016, I downloaded the app KEEP and set a goal to keep my legs in good shape. Till now I have exercised 232 days about 5984 minutes. However my calf looked the same as before. I was really frustrated and wanted if I would no longer achieve my goal and keep fit. I even thought to skip diets and ate only fruits instead of meals. ( I only thought about it but never did it. )

I was wondering the reasons several days and got the answer. I was supposed to focus on one exercise in a period of time and do not exercise the other one until I have been familiar with it. I have tried many different exercise courses but never done one thing once.  And I also need a coach to guide me to find the suitable courses. 

In a word, I am quite pride of my persistence without rewards and others' supervision. I have formed a good habit to exercise almost every day and then I can keep exercise and adjust. I believe I will make it come true this summer. :)
