Well, I only worked out a minimum of 4x one week. I didn't make my mile run goal either. My calf muscle is still strained - maybe I need more calcium. But, I did exercise more this month than I have been, so I'll still consider it a step in the right direction.

so, tracking for the last two days of November and a round up:
Last week was a bit of a write off as I wasn't very well (dragged down by the flu jab) but let's get the last 2 days recorded:
29th - 35 mins swimming, 20 mins JM 30DS
30th - 35 mins swimming, 20 mins JM 30DS
So that's on track for the last 2 days - better late than never eh!?
So overall total: 1232 mins
Total ahead/behind: -368 mins
So, although week 4 was a bit of a blip, I'm generally proud of how I did in November. I think my December challenge will be by the day, rather than over all - give me more incentive to do something every day.
Happy new month everyone! X
