In looking at my Daily Mile profile I realized that I haven’t had a non-workout day in a full week. I’ve actually gone for a run the past five days in a row. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t getting all cracked out on running again. I can’t help it. Once a runner, always a runner. That being said, I think it’s time for a rest day. Bikram yoga last night helped soothe my muscles, but today calls for not a damn thing. Woot!
As I mentioned, I am running a lot lately but I know that come tri season I’ll be annoyed at my craptacular bicycling skills. My poor Dolly is just sitting in the corner looking pitiful. I fully intend on getting a ride in this weekend. Please hold me to it.
Speaking of holding me to it, it’s time for a challenge. I rarely participate in the bloggy challenges that go around because I’m so non-committal, but this one is special. It’s special because none other than our very own BAMF KC created it. She came up with it on request by a few friends. I’m always grateful to have a challenge for the month of December when there are so many goodies around. There’s a few other bloggers that are joining in the fun. Wanna play? Here’s the details:
December Challenge
At least one mile a day for the entire month of December, running or walking. (Mall walking doesn’t count!) There’s no reason that I know of, that I can’t run at least one mile everyday. Even on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day there’s a little down time. The plus side of this is that on your run days, you’ve got that mile built in. It’s the rest days that will be tough.
I’ll post it again on December 3rd so let me know if you’re in and I’ll link you up!
Today, I’m thankful for fun challenges with friends. What are you thankful for?
You can do the runners world streak too then!…alas I am not…or I'll never rest 😉
okay, I'm in for the challenge. I have been a slug since TriRock was over and I quit my gym. I'm in a total workout funk, doing almost nothing. My muscles are atrophying. I need a new gym so badly, but nothing works! LAFitness can kiss my expanding ass. I need to get back out on my bike too. No excuse for not doing that. Laziness has just taken over.
Two questions…do you have a link to the actual challenge? Why December 3rd?
You know I am in 🙂
Don't make Dolly cry go for just 1 ride 🙂
I am in for the challenge. We should definitely get dolly out. Misty would probably like to feel something else besides my trainer.
I actually just started a challenge like that for myself but it has no end limit — at least 2 miles running every day.
I am done for the challenge it will go will with my own challenge I plan to start Dec. 1. Yay for challenges!
Can I just do all the miles over two days?
Cool, that sounds good! I'm looking forward to a resting december. After the ultra this weekend it's time for some lazytown.
Count me in I am sort of on a running streak, with clothing, as it is =)
P.S Koa feels Dolly's pain. He has not been moved since IMFL…
Y'all let me know how that goes. I'm on a down streak coming off of IMAZ until ~ Dec10th. I will be moving but it won't always be running/walking.
Yes! I'm in. I'm already for a 5k using my phone app. So why shouldn't I walk/run at least a mile everyday? This will be good because I plan on doing a weigh loss challenge on my blog and this will keep motivated to exercise everyday. Send me the link!
gosh I'd love to do this, but making it to the gym every single day for a run isn't feasable sadly. You go girl.
At least one mile a day for the entire month of December, running or walking is a wonderful plan. I am looking forward to one mile running daily. I'll take a break for Christmas.
