Got sick. Work got busy. And I fell off the exercise and drinking-less bandwagon last challenge. (Other than alcohol, food has been pretty good though. I blame our garden which is currently exploding with kale and lettuce faster than we can eat it). For inspiration, I signed up for a 5K in mid-July. Gives me a bit of a shorter-term thing to train for than the half-marathon in November. Also... I really loved part 1 the new season of Stranger Things. I can definitely relate escaping the upside down to pulling myself out of this slump and back into better habits. In the interest of keeping things attainable, I'm also really going to embrace the "fitness is a dial" mentality with this challenge. As such my current vision of goals for this challenge are: Movement Dial: 1) Walk the dog 2) At least 1 rep of each warm-up routine 3) Full warm-up routine or 10+ mins yoga 4) Full warm-up routine + Run (any length/distance) 5) Full warm-up routine + Run 30 mins Warm-Up Routine: Nutrition Dial: 1) Track food & water in journal 2) Track, Drink 2 L water 3) Track, Drink 2 L water, and up to 2 alcoholic drinks 4) Track, Drink 2L water and up to 1 alcoholic drink 5) Track, Drink 2L water and 0 alcoholic drinks
