I only ever signed up for one challenge in blogland and I didn’t see it through. I hate feeling like I have to live up to someone else’s idea of goals and expectations. This one, though, I like the premise behind it and I like the sense of community and support it will bring and I will give. And it will help Winter fly by if I have some sort of direction to follow.
The challenge starts today, here’s the website: Spring Chick Challenge or click on the image.
Commit to a NSV (non scale victory) to be assessed at the start and the conclusion of the challenge.
- Goal: Run 5K twice a week (outside or treadmill)
- Current: Run 5K about once a month
Commit to a set of nutrition parameters and track via MyFitnessPal or Sparkpeople or WW.
- Goal: Track and stay within WWP+ every day/week (27 per day + 49 per week)
- Current: Tracking and (mostly) staying within points.
Commit to a set of exercise parameters. These can be as loose or as flexible as you feel work for your personality, schedule, etc.
- Goal: Run 2x a week either inside or treadmill. Do some kind of workout 5x a week
- Current: Sporadic workouts – all or nothing – no consistency.
Commit to blogging at least twice weekly and 1 of those times must be you check in with a complete up date on your progress. All other blogs could include new insights, results of weekly challenges, or just letting others know how you are doing.
- Goal: My check in day will be Wednesdays as that’s my WW Weigh-In day. I’ll blog at least 4x a week about progress and life in general.
- Current: Sporadic blogging.
Commit to support... both giving and receiving. Check others blogs and comment as you feel motivated to do.
- Goal: Following a whole bunch people doing the challenge!
