March 16th - March 22nd

Congratulations to garzadrive for winning our Love Your Body list challenge! You rock!

Pick one, two, or all three challenges. Remember: these challenges are optional. Not completing them will have no effect on whether or not you win the UAC.

Physical: For 3 days this week, exercise twice as long as you normally would.

Mental: Research a diet or exercise program you don't know much about but are interested in. Report your findings here.

Diet: In honor of St. Patrick's Day, eat a rainbow every day this week. Post in here every day and tell us what colors you ate that day. Colorful, natural foods count as "colors." I.e., bananas count as yellow; Twinkies do not.

The colors are ROYGBIV: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo/violet (purple).
