  • Made my goal of sticking to my exercise schedule for the rest of the month starting the 25th. This thread really helped me stay on track. On to Dec!

    My goal is to stick to my personal exercise schedule each day.

    11/25: 45 min Irish dance practice
    11/26: 25 min jog/walk
    11/27: scheduled rest day
    11/28: 60 min walk
    11/29: 25 min jog/walk
    11/30: 28 min heavy lifting

    B F R - Gardening is indeed hard work and it sounds like you were doing some heavy lifting there. Well done!
