The Scarlet Pimpernel is dead! Long live Teancum! If you saw my last challenge, you saw that I have re-branded myself a bit, and as a reward for succeeding last challenge changed my character name from the Scarlet Pimpernel to Teancum, after an ancient assassin and warrior. This change was to provide a fresh start, with new commitment and inspiration. I started forming some good habits last challenge, and intend to continue, and also level up! And what better way than to emulate Teancum and join the army... (and here is a link to the song if you need some extra motivation) I'll basically be continuing my goals from last challenge, under a different name... If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Be a Man: Never miss 2 in a row Swift as a Coursing River: Skills training (balancing, climbing, jumping, hanging, crawling, etc.) 3x per week Force of a Great Typhoon: NFA Body weight workout 3x per week Strength of a Raging Fire: Modified NFA level 4 diet - Avoid sugar/fast food (and never 2 in a row), eat more vegetables, choose whole grains, move to level 5 (see below) Mysterious as the Dark Side of the Moon: Daily study of scripture Scoring - 90% is pass, zero week is bonus, missing 2 in a row is fail I am also hoping to level up in a few aspects this challenge: Exercise - I am currently doing NFA body weight level 3, but this challenge I am going to take on the boss and move to level 4 Diet - I am currently at about NFA level 4 for diet, but I think I can move up to level 5. This will require: Vegetable daily for at least 10 days out of two weeks One week without eating pasta Weight - I really want to get below my 250lb benchmark. That's 10lb and I think I can accomplish that this challenge if I stay on target Seems like a lot going on this challenge, but I think they're all doable, and in-line with each other. I'll also participate in the mini, and might even check out a PVP challenge this time, as I haven't tried that before. Having a defined reward seemed to work well last challenge, so I'll do so again. Successful completion of this challenge will qualify me for a lesson trial in martial arts, parkour, or some other new activity that I'm interested in trying out. What good is training to be an assassin if you don't put it to use?! Let's do this thing!!
