So people on Twitter/Facebook have been doing monthly fitness challenges which is a great idea not only to motivate others but to keep yourself accountable. So I am stealing the idea and using it to keep me on my toes! I've been running but the last couple of weeks I have only done long runs and skipped most of my shorter weekly runs, so my March Running Challenge will be to run EVERY DAY at least a mile.
This is great to get you out there even if you are on a tight schedule and most likely once you are out there you will end up running more than just a mile. My friends who have done it got a lot faster with this challenge, I guess it works a bit like speed work (shorter/faster runs) so i am looking forward to this.
My other March challenge is 100 Squats a day. I need to target specific areas of my body that will make me a stronger runner and this is definitely a good one... On top of making my behind nice and perky for bikini season.
On top of that I am focusing on a LEANER diet to get those abs out, AB RipperX 3 times a week, a few pole dancing classes and silks which should take care of the upper body strenght since I'm already in Level 2 (Climbing and out of the Hammock!).
Add to this a swim a week and maybe next month I will start cycling again... Oh lord, talk about packed schedule! The first few days of the month will be challenging, heading to California today for the IIN Mega Conference... This will definitely get me motivated but since its a Girls Trip, it will be hard to not fall of the wagon when it comes to going out for drinks and prioritizing my workouts. The up side to it? 100 squats and a mile run take very little time so at least with those two things I can keep me on track!
That's it for now, I will be posting some silks and pole pics when I come back from Cali!
XOXO
