After a really long absence I have returned! Work and hockey coaching things got busy (in great ways) and I wandered away from the awesomeness that is Nerd Fitness. While I wandered I began to notice that I missed the friendship, accountability and tremendous google-fu that only NF Rebels can provide. So I started this battle log to serve as a place to share what I’m up to and stay in touch with the Rebellion. I created a 4 week challenge for myself in the style of a 6 week challenge crafted around the things I need to work on. There are about 800 things I want to cram into my weekly schedule, but I want to keep things realistic so I picked 3 things I want to do more of. Workout, Write, W-clean my house (damn, I really wanted three things that started with W…) Witcher Wild Hunt came out in May and experts (me) agree it is the greatest open world RPG ever created by mankind (I like it a whole bunch), and a perfect theme for my battle log. You play as a monster hunter for hire who plies his trade with swords, spells and super human senses. Lucky for me I have all those things.... Weekly Goals: Workout 2 days per week- strong, fit Witchers live longer.Write at least 1 hour per week- Witchers can have hobbies too.Witcher cleaning contracts- 2 per week- I swear monsters live in my house, constantly creating clutter and dirty dishes. Jerks. End of Challenge Goals: 15 regular pushups in a row (right now I’m doing them from my lady knees) 10 pages of writing completed A clean house Rewards: Warm fuzzies. When I work out I feel good. When I keep up with my cleaning duties I feel good. When I spend time writing I feel good. I often get the feeling that life is going way too fast and I don’t have time to do everything I want. The best way to combat that feeling is by identifying priorities and spending my time and energy where it matters most. (Sorry Netflix) Time to sharpen some skills, slay some monsters, and craft my legend as the greatest me there has ever been. *Jennifer Stark equips her silver sword and gets to work*
