    Way to go, Laura!

    There were a few nights when I did 10 minutes of stretching while laying down with the kids, but I made it under the wire!

    It sounds like you all killed it this week. I'm waiting on a response, but our current group total is 75%

    My goal is to strength train 3x a week plus run 3x a week.

    I will post here every Saturday since my week will start on a Sunday. :)

    My reward to myself will be buying myself a new swimsuit.

    I had originally told a friend of mine that my goal for this month would be to get in good enough shape to get myself kicked out of Planet Fitness on the last day of the month. I plan on cancelling my membership anyway since I'm moving to a different town in July. :)

    I was able to lift 4 times in a week! :) That was fun. I ran once during the week. The boyfriend was working locally on location with his crew so I spent a few nights with him. So I'm gonna say I did hit my goal for the week. :happy:

    Goal: 85,000 steps a week

    June 1-7: 104,878
    June 8-14: 93,521

    Was a little nervous about meeting goal this past week because I started tapering my running, but got the steps in anyway. This upcoming week I'm going to be moving even less, but I'm counting on my half marathon on Saturday to push me over the top.

    I'm in! My goal is a minimum of 22 miles per week in runs, for the month of June. The first week will be more than 7 days because I'll be travelling/on vacation to Canada and back on June 5-9th.

    So:
    June 1- 9: 22 miles
    June 10-16: 22 miles
    June 17-23: 22 miles
    June 24-30: 22 miles

    I'd like to average 25 (100 miles in the month) and will be aiming for that, but want the ability to fall back to 22 miles. 22 will still give me the most I've ever run in a month.

    June 1-9 ran 25 miles

    June 10&11: was sick, didn't run
    June 12: 4 miles
    June 13: 6.5 miles
    June 14: 3 miles in the morning; 3 miles in the evening
    June 15: Nosework trial
    June 16: 4 miles in the morning; 2 miles in the evening
    June 10-16: ran 22.5 miles RAWR!

    That's awesome! First time around how many days a week did you want to hit 10K? Was it twice? Now you're averaging more than that over a period 7 days. Way to step it up! (Pun intended...but serious sentiment.)

    I met the challenge and strength trained 3x this week. Tuesday & Sunday were a challenge to get through. Friday was easy.

    Not sure if I am going to hit my target the next few days. I've had a sore knee since Tuesday and have still managed to get my steps in, but even walking on it hurts and I don't want to make it any worse. Taking it easy the next few days so I can hopefully get back to running next week.

    I'm definitely in trouble this week. This is a recovery week for running so even though I've been going for walks I haven't been running much.

    I'm on schedule to complete the challenge successfully, but feel that I'm pushing it for the sake of finishing the challenge rather than because it's good for me. I'd rather start my half marathon plan.

    Can we get a group agreement that 3+ weeks is enough for this month? Do people want to take a break, a rest week, or keep going?
  • PinkNinjaLaura
    PinkNinjaLaura Posts: 3,202 Member
    I started my week on the 1st so I actually have a few bonus days at the end of the month to get my steps in.

    Donna you definitely shouldn't push yourself beyond what's safe or healthy for the sake of a challenge.

    I'm more confident now. Only need 3 miles more running to complete this month's challenge. I should get it in tonight, then on to the half marathon plan (with an interruption in two weeks for my drive to and from Houston, TX).

    I'm ordering my new tank tonight!! As soon as I see how the rest do.

    I have managed to complete my goals this week, even when injured. Today I didn't hit my 10,000 steps target but I did a 50 minute cardio workout this afternoon and it only credited me with the same amount of steps that I get for walking to work, which is 12 minutes each way. For quite a bit of the workout you had to have your hands on your hips or on the floor (burpees, spider lunges etc) so it didn't pick up the movement. I am pretty sure I would have done 3-4000 steps minimum which would have taken me well over my target.

    Well done deksgrl! Just realised I have been reading your name wrong, always thought it was deskgrl! Can't wait to hear how everyone has fared.
