  • Anyone up for an exercise challenge? Someone else started a thread like this for Jan, Feb, and March and it helped me stay on track. I'm hoping others will join. Use the template below and then you can just return and edit daily to log your exercise. That way new posts are reserved for comments and conversation and not daily updates- it keeps the thread from getting to big too quickly.

    I will be very interested to hear how it goes with NROLFW.
    I agree that 90 days is a long time for this challenge. I started to slack off towards the end the last time but the challenge kept me motivated. I'm hoping to have the same impact again
  • Welcome Changergirl, KimL1214 and Angelic Fruitcake (awesome name by the way!).
  • Welcome Kymish!
  • NROLFW was awesome last night, I'm glad I gave it my all. However I am sore today. It's mainly in my upper body which is good as I'm planning on going for a run tonight.
  • I thought I would be able to run last night but I was in too much pain I think I'll try a Nike Training Club workout for arms and abs today so I'll at least move a little! And if I'm not in pain I'll try to go running tonight.
  • I'm in!

  • Welcome Crispin!
  • Thanks, bunnabear!

    I'm so glad you started this thread. I've been challenging myself on this solo, but I think going public will keep me motivated.
  • crispin- It's so weird how posting your plan and results to strangers aka going public, is so motivating!!!

    Angelic Fruitcake I'm sorry to hear you're injured, what's wrong?? And hopefully you've got a speedy recovery.
  • Changergirl - Yes, so odd how posting it makes me feel more accountable to keep up. I also like watching the template fill up. Why did I never think to make one of my own to use? Such great ideas here.

    I see you're in South Korea. Are you an English teacher?
