A mix of exercises

Just a quick note, I've been walking and running and swimming. Doing some push ups and even and few pull ups of late. That's really good and all but not very interesting in and of itself.

It's just that my ankle started to get really sore with all the walking and running.

And because I've started blending lots of different exercises something interesting did happen, I'm still able to keep on with this process of getting hard. I can still swim and push up and pull up, and that's really neat.

Previously, I'd have probably just stopped walking and running and been stuck without an alternative.

Diversify your exercise like you'd diversify your financial portfolio to weather the storm. There, a mix of metaphors or similes or something.
