Hey fellow rebels! Listen, I've been doing pretty good on the last 6 week challenge but I've sort of fallen into a slump the past week. I'm pretty sure I know why, but for the life of me I can't get off my ass and bust out a decent workout. It's been since last Friday since I had a workout and I'm not sure if I can push through these last couple weeks. I should also probably mention that I'm going to Laurier University next Monday for school and I've been helping some of my friends through some rough personal stuff. Can someone please help me replenish my motivation bar? Pretty please?!?!? Thanks a bundle, mikeylol69 PS: I might not be posting in the right place so I apologize in advance (new to forums :/)

Hey everyone, I have been hanging out at NF and turning all my friends into NF fanatics for the past 4 weeks or so and now it is time for my first challenge. I am pretty excited about it and have been anxiously awaiting for the time to come. I enjoy challenges a lot and am looking forward to be motivated along with all of my Adventurer teammates. I focused my goals a lot on running because I am planning on running my second half-marathon on August 18, 2013 and I want to train better and be better at running. It has become a huge source of pride and fulfillment in my life and improving will only make me feel that much more successful. Lately, I have also been slacking a lot on the food front; from pancakes to cookies and other snacks, I am afraid I will revert back to nasty habits I have tried hard to change. I am hoping in the next six weeks, I remind myself why I stay away from such "treats" and make the changes more concrete. I also would like to work on art and be more accountable for it. Art is a passion of mine and I get too hung up on being good or bad, so I put it in the back burner. I want to give myself the opportunity to engage in doing what I love more often. My goals are as follows: Goal 1 Run an average of 13 miles per week. Grades: A: 13 miles or more for the week B: 10-12 miles for the week C: 7-9 miles for the week D: Less than 7 miles for the week Goal 2 Average 12 minutes per mile during all of my runs Grades: A: 12 minutes or less per mile B: 12:01-12:30 minutes per mile C: 12:31-13:00 minutes per mile D: 13:01- more minutes per mile Goal 3 Eat clean, with the exception of 3 free meals per week (aka- anything I want ) Grades: A: 3 free meals a week B: 4 free meals a week C: 5 free meals a week D: 6 or more free meals a week Goal 4 Sketch for a minimum of 30 minutes a day Grades: A: 5 times a week or more B: 4 times a week C: 3 times a week D: 2 times a week or less For goal 1 and goal 2, I will use runkeeper to keep a steady log of my times and runs. For goal 3, I plan on using a food log/diary and for goal 4, I will sketch, sketch, sketch. Cheers to success, everyone!!!
