I hope no one minds that I started the thread this month. I was getting anxious. Lol
This seems to be a successful idea from January, February, March, and April, so let's keep it going! Copy/paste your details.

Successes/struggles this week: I am recovering from bronchitis so it knocked me out of workouts for 2 weeks. I'm back to being able to do light workouts as long as I use an inhaler. Today I'm doing my first 5k in a couple of years. I was hoping to run it. It looks like I'll have to walk it instead but at least I'm doing it!2 -
