Sarah

Oh dear! I always feel so guilty when I see this monthly thread start up. I've been using my sore knee as an excuse - and it is sore. However, I am going to try to post some sort of physical activity for each day even if it's something as simple as weeding for an hour or doing a short walk. It's too darn hot for the treadmill but I'll be back at it soon.

Well I just started doing 30 mins a day. I will try to add a second workout every 2nd day of 30 mins so my goal is 1400

GOAL:1400
Completed:2370mins I think this is what I needed to get me motivated.
