Hey Everyone.
Its always a challenge not to get bored of our workouts so this weekend I thought I would propose a challenge. Let's try to bring someone to exercise with someone we don't normally include. This could mean bringing a family member to your current workout or doing something completely new like speed walking with a friend you don't normally go with.
Let's try to just change things up...keep being fit interesting.
I will post here what I plan on doing this weekend for this challenge and I hope you do to!

I approached a young female, old man, and a little old lady in a motorized cart this morning and asked them to run with me. The young female pulled out her mace, old man tried to run me over with his Buick, and old lady got out of her wheelchair and started running and screaming. This is a tough task!!!
Just kidding of course0 -

All I can say is LOL!0 -
You are hysterical as always.
I think for my new partner for the weekend I am going to enlist my 3 year old to do a 20-minute dance silly/crazy cardio experience.0 -
Dell- you always make me smile!
Karebear - I love dancing silly with my 3 year old! She's the best dance partner I've ever had.
This challenge would be perfect for me next weekend as I've already recruited two people to start running with me every Friday starting on Feb 1... I'll start asking around though - I might be able to get one of the other girls to go with me on Saturday since that's her day off and she's usually at work when I'm not at work (we work the same job but opposite shifts, so we never see each other except at shift change).0 -
I will try to push my wife to go out walking with me. She has been very lazy lately.0

I will try to get my boyfriend to go walking with me. He always says he is going to but when I am dressed and ready to go he changes his mind. He is not big on walking...he has gone a few times but it is very very rare. He is suppose to being losing weigh and taking care of his health too since he just recently found out he is a diabetic. I am hoping that I can be a positive role model for him and that when he sees how well I am doing that it will inspire him. We'll see!!0

This is going to be a tough one. I have invited friends from time to time to do different activities at our local Y or geocaching/hiking, etc, but I don't think I have anyone left to ask I haven't already done something with in the past. I will think on it.0

I should be able to coerce my son to do some boxing on the Wii with me. Anything else and I think I'm out of luck LOL!0

I did it! I got my counterpart from nights to go to the track with me since it was her day off. I didn't run as far as I wanted to, but she runs faster than I do and I was focused on keeping up! I told her we should go to the track every Saturday so she can challenge me to run faster. We'll see how next week goes. Thanks for the push to do this - I should have asked her weeks ago!0

That is totally awesome!!! So happy you found a partner in crime. I always find it more motivating to have different people with me who challenge me.0 -
