  • I'm making progress! So happy!

    My goal for January is to complete a total of 15 workouts (averaging 3 per week, but allowing flexibility if needed). I also have built in a little incentive for myself if I meet my challenge ($40 to buy books), with the potential to earn extra for each additional workout completed ($5 extra per workout).

    1- 1/2/14, 20 minutes walking 3.5 mph, 30 minutes strength training
    2- 1/3/14, 60 minutes walking on treadmill (10 3.5 mph, 50 3.0 mph)
    3- 1/4/14, 60 minute brisk walk at the lake
    4- 1/5/14, 60 minute brisk night walk
    5- 1/7/14, 45 minutes strength training
