So one added thing to this challenge is trying 5 new activities over the course of the 100 days. I will be posting a discussion board each month, in case you are doing it that way (1 new thing per month)
This weekend I will be attempting a 5k Obstacle Race.. Alone! Of course it was not planned that way but my friend backed out and I still want to go! The no refund policy is also a huge motivator haha
Anyhow, I'm terrified but excited at the same time! Anyone else do something out of their comfort zone this month?

Saturday I'm running as part of a marathon relay team, for ...FUN... I', usually super competitive so this more laid back event with others is very out of my comfort zone... I'm excited!0

For the next 7 weeks, we are doing a challenge at work where we are part of a 7 person group and we have 7 fitness activities that we have to complete per week, plus we also get more credit for doing general cardio. it's going to be very interesting, for sure! I'm very much a solo-type exerciser but we'll see how this goes!0

I'm going to a kettlebell class tonight. I wanted my sister to join me, but she couldn't.
And Saturday, I'm going to go jogging outside for the first time. I've jogged a couple of times on my bosu, because it's easier on my knees, but I want to see how long it takes me to run 3 miles, and then I can have more accurate information on how long it takes me to run 3 miles.0 -
Tomorrow I am dragging my lazy butt out of bed to go to Yoga (never done Yoga in my life) at 6:30am, I think the best part will be that I'm dragging my husband with me.0

I have just started cross fit In pain.... :laugh:0

Adding in a session of yoga once a week to my morning routine.0

Today I tried husk cherries for the first time. Very interesting flavor haha0
-
I'm doing a squat challenge and using a heart rate monitor, those are new. I was getting too obsessive with the fitbit...0

I joined to healthplex & started swimming that was my new thing for Sept! :-) it's been amazing I forgot how much I use to love it when I was younger! My Oct goal is to plan my meals out a week prior hopefully this will help me hit my protein goals, without scrambling to get it all in and I'm starting a new lifting program just to switch things up a bit.
Hope everyone is doing great :-) feel free to add me I log every bite, every day tomorrow will be day 10! ????0 -
tomorrow I am going for a 31 mile bike ride!! I think the most I have ever done was in the 20's and that's when I was 18! next sunday the goal is to go hiking with 3 dogs! (I've gone hiking and I've climbed mountains but 3 dogs is going to be a challenge! especially if I have to carry my tripawd hahaha)0

yoga is the best!! I mean I HATE actual yoga it's so akward and everything but the way you feel after is the best! good for you and have fun! (try not to laugh too hard it makes people mad )0 -
I just went running for the first time today. I was able to do almost 4 miles in 42 minutes.0

I went jogging today for the first time in over a year. I would have definitely been eaten by a zombie if this were the apocalypse, but I jogged. Some intermittent walking. I felt like I was back in middle school and 270 pounds again. LOL, but I jogged.0

Blahhhh. So I missed the obstacle race on Saturday..not intentionally!! There was an accident and the traffic was insane. I didn't make it in time :-(
However, I did try something new today! It was some kind of indoor bike but you can pedal with your feet and hands haha It made me sweat !!0 -

Thanks! I also started doing using a foam roller for the first time this month. It's a nice way to work out kinks and sore muscles. But it can hurt sometimes.0 -
