So that's it. First challenge completed, successfully I think! For the future I will keep my water intake at around 2-2.5L per day. Eating lots of vegetables is easy for me. I'll aim for 9:30pm bedtime as I've mentioned before. And I will keep up with the 3 per week workouts. Thank you and good night. Ps see you next challenge too -Elder-

Week four wasn't quite as successful as it should have been. I got a little lazy, but I'm still happy with my progress. Bed by 9pm = 3/5 3L of water = 5/7 Veg with every meal = 6/5 Workouts (not running) = 3/3 So it was 50% completion. I aced my workouts and my vegetables. Didn't hit the bed goal but the nights were never really late. I'm going to aim for 9:30pm from now on. 3L of water I found on cold days I didn't drink as much water. I started bringing a thermos of hot water and instead of having tea or coffee I would have hot water. Which I actually really enjoy. So even though I wasn't getting my 3L some days my liquids have been 95% water, with only 1 coffee with milk in the morning. -Elder-

I got all my recovery challenge done this week! 3x stretching after workouts. -Elder- -
Week is still going well. Last day tomorrow! -Elder-

Pretty good. I've been doing stellar with my water, vegetable, and bed time goals! I haven't run this week, which technically means I'm failing my running goal this week. BUT, I have done two NF Academy body weight workouts this week and plan on a third one. That's a success to me so I'm ok with it. Thanks for checking in! -Elder-

Combat week was a success! I've got 2 of my 3 recovery goals completed already. It feels good to be stretching again! -Elder- -
Ahh I see! Lol I forgot that was there because I can't see it on my phone. Thank you! I love it too. :-D -Elder-

Things are still going well this week! The weather has been horrid so on Wednesday I did a body weight workout instead of a run. The same will happen tomorrow instead of run 3. I haven't quite decided if I'll count these for points or not, body weight workouts aren't runs and running is my goal. Water, veggies, and bed times have been amazing all week! -Elder-

My signature? Thanks! I can't believe week 3 is almost over already. -Elder-

Week 3 is starting out proper...the that past two weeks have. I got my 8km run in today. Veggies for breakfast and I'm almost half way to my water goal. It's only 10:30am! I have Wednesday off so I will get my second run in on that day. The toughest part will be run #3. I think I'll try getting up early and running before work. -Elder-

Week 2 Recap. Week two was quite successful, apart from the lack of running. 1. Vegetable at every meal 5 days of the week= Yes! 6 days actually. 2. 3L water every day of the week= Yes! It's all I drink except for 1 coffee in the morning. 3. Run 8km 3x a week= No. I got Monday's run in the bailed on the rest of the week. 4. Bed by 9pm 5 days a week= Yes! I was really tired this week. I believe because my mind is coping with working more hours at work and doing harder tasks...which is good. It made it easy to hit this goal being exhausted at the end of the day. So, all in all, quotes successful week! -Elder-

Well 3 of the 4 goals are going amazingly. Veggies and bed time are the easiest. Water gets tough some days...and I need to go to the bathroom at least once in the middle of the night. The best days are when I get all the water in me before 6pm. I've only run once this week because excuses. Half of me says your excuses are legit, the other half says they're just stupid excuses. I've started working 9-5 hours again at my job so no longer have the 3 days per week off. I've got to regroup and start the habit of waking up early to run before work. -Elder-
