100 Pushups Today!

Kirk and Bryce should be doing some of
these about now, huh?

 Thank you to my sister, Jenny and my sisters-in-law, Marie and Rebecca for reporting your activities.  So far everyone's contributions have helped me get in some great RAFs - today I did 100 pushups!  I still haven't gotten in a formal workout (what is WITH me lately!?) but I've got one more day to get that accomplished.

Who else can inspire me?!  I still need it!

Some of you have apologized that your workouts aren't all that interesting, but, who cares?!  You're doing them, aren'tcha?  So, good job! 

Besides, I have a fun little challenge in mind for October that should help spice things up on that front.  Ooooo, the anticipation!

100 Lunges Today!

Lunges keep me and Spidey in
tip-top shape.  We could be twins...
except I'm not such a leotard fan.

Okay, Mom and Dad Johnson and Mom Taylor reported in some of their workouts lately.  Thank you so much.  You seriously inspired me to get in a few Random Acts of Fitness today.  I did a total of 100 lunges by breaking them into 5 sets of 20 repetitions throughout the course of the day.  I did a mixture of front and back lunges and, sadly, I'll probably be sore.  A month ago that wouldn't have even phased me!

I'm positive this will lead me into my full-blown "real" workout tomorrow.  I'll let you know.

Thanks for the help, but I still need more inspiration from the rest of you!

Last-Minute September Challenge

Hey, if it weren't for the last minute, nothing would get done, right?!

For this challenge, I need your help!

Okay, we've got 4 days to get this one done and it's all about ME.  Well, and it benefits all of you as well. 

Since accomplishing my amazing feat of running a half marathon (thankyouverymuch), I haven't done a thing except eat.  (To my credit, there have been some fruits and veggies involved in that eating).  Not a single workout to be had, though.  It's my goal to get at least ONE (and hopefully more!) workout in before Sept. 30, 11:59 pm. 

Please join me and report about it.  I need your inspiration and motivation!!! 

If you have been exercising, then this should be no problem for you, just email or leave a blog comment about what you've done and you'll get a point!  Easy peasy!  If, like me, your workouts have been struggling, let's do something these next few days.  Head out for a walk, hop on the bike, tread or elliptical, pump some iron.  It doesn't have to be anything killer, but it does have to get your heart pumping!

Let's do this, family and friends!!!  Please help me!!!

Combat your inner couch potato and Overcome Lazy this week!!!
