He told me that since he had injured himself many months ago, he hadn't been doing much in the way of cardio exercise. But he feels he has finally healed enough and proved it by walking around several Disney parks last month with his family without incident. Yet, despite this, he had not actually started true cardio exercise again.

Last week, though, he was driving around town running errands on his lunch break and he drove by me walking. A couple days later, he happened to drive by me again.

Seeing me exercising (even if it isn't any more than a brisk walk) has inspired him to start again and he did just that yesterday. Hopefully he keeps it up.

I only mention this because usually I look to others as my inspiration to motivate me to work out. I've never had anyone use me as inspiration. This is virgin territory for me.

What are the expectations of me as an "inspiration"? OMG! The pressure! What if I fail him?? What if he doesn't like me as his inspiration? What if he says I'm no good? I just don't think I could take that kind of rejection!
