Yesterday I did 10 mins, then nearly "died" because of some strange abdominal cramp, which then went away I did another 13.5 min quite easily. That's Day 15 done.
And I forgot to do the other exercise (stationary biking & skipping), so no point in continuing my other challenge now. Must restart. Maybe today if I don't drop dead when I get home - so tired... Must get up by 6 am this week, and haven't been going to bed early enough because I've been watching the Olympics. No skating on TV tonight though, so I'm looking forward to being in bed way before 10 pm.
And just 3 more days left at work - tomorrow and Monday and Tuesday, and then free free free!
Too bad there is no way I can get paid for all the things I love to do in my spare time! 
And too bad I don't have as much money saved up as I should. I don't have little, and probably couldn't really have saved up more than that, but still, after 4 months on a well-paying, full-time job... 
Oh well, as long as I can find something equally good in April, I'll be fine. Money sucks! 
....I mean that a pause day is not like a freebie, that you use instead of making your challenge. You WILL do 21 days sticking to your challenge but that may be spread over (in the case of Level 3) 24 days ...or you'll be starting over at Day 1. The pause days are as you like them, planned or oops! gonna need a pause day. 
Ok, does that clear things up. And like the name, you pause in your counting....Day 7, Day 8, Pause Day, Day 9, Day 10...like that. Ok? 
This challenge is exactly what I need to get me moving.
Thanks for the grin!
Oh boy... have you ever had that kind of "no argument needed" stuff used on you??? But it has been working well for the most part. Well... gotta go... ttyl!
Just time for a quick update, as the dogs are convinced they are STARVING. Horrors 
I have been wanting all day, so just stayed in).
dressage and this is major work for the horse and the rider, especially when the horse is like mine and doesn't want to work. Talk about sweat-dripping and often on the cold days I get asthma and can't get air. It's a real discipline and super hard work but I am determined to become a good rider so that's my motivation. The mirrors sure make me feel sick though...still it's been worse.
23 minutes without a break is great! Be careful not to overdo it. Were you well hydrated? By the way, are you in Australia now? as it says by your "location?" I hope you feel better. Maybe the pain was gas or some reaction to some food you'd eaten,
Glad to have you with us. Hope to see more of you! 
What's this heel pain you have? Have you been running? 
Way to go! Too bad about the gym, but shoveling is major exercise! I remember it well. Keep up the good work. It sounds to me like you're really thinking things through more these days, using real logic to counter the tough times. That shows major progress I think. Good for you, jolly!
