I find that I am more accountable for what I do for exercise when I have to report to someone. It motivates me to get moving!
A couple of years ago I participated in a 100 Mile Challenge and I loved it. It made me want to go just a little bit farther so that I could report an extra mile. Recently, I tried another challenge where we were supposed to keep track of working out as well as other things and I found that it was too much for me to keep track of.
So, I decided to start another 100 Mile Challenge to motivate me to move and maybe to help get you up off the couch too.
· Each challenge runs for three months (Challenges begin in January, April, July & October - feel free to join in at ANY time though!)
· Each mile you walk or run equals a mile in the challenge
· Every 15 minutes of other exercise equals one mile(biking, yoga, tennis, swimming, etc)
· There are NO half miles - push yourself to go that extra half mile or another seven minutes and count it as a mile. You can do it!
Each week, I will put out a call for miles and you will report how many miles you did that week. I will add your name and miles to the sidebar. Be sure to check back to make sure that my math is correct! Each week, I also hope to post some motivation - something to make us want to move, a favorite healthy recipe, etc. Feel free to contact me (batnt99 at gmail.com) if you would like to do a guest post.
Join in and let’s move!
