Boy, it feels good to be logging these last few workouts. I'm so impressed to see everyone's progress. It really has been a motivator for me. It has also been an odd comfort to me to know I'm not the only one tortuting myself with all this exercise.
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
6- 1/13/14, 60 minutes strength trainjng
