SnowOwl Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I've been gone, but it's time to come back. Just simple tracking and hopefully lots of support! I need to exercise and stay healthy, which can be challenging as a teacher. So, simple goals: 1. Meal prep breakfasts and lunches for the work week every Sunday. 2. Exercise daily. Anything counts - yoga, walking, body-weight. To help with this I signed up for the assassins' mini-challenge. That's it - move and eat properly. I'm excited to be back! 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment

SnowOwl Posted September 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 I did box jumps, some negative pull-ups and wall push-ups for the mini-challenge yesterday, plus two gonoodle dances with my class. That tiny amount made me sore so I may go for some yoga this evening. I prepped lunches and smoothies, but not breakfasts for this week. Not too bad, but I need to get that piece figured out. 2 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment
SnowOwl Posted September 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 Yesterday I didn't get any movement in. I worked late and was busy until bedtime. Work is crazy busy this week, but I still need to move! I did do a 15 minute yoga session tonight though! It felt good to follow through with something, even a short something! Tomorrow I'll try to get some strength in for the mini. 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment

Do you have stairs, or maybe you can do a quick walk around the building or something?

Great ideas, but unfortunately not as I'm a teacher and have my kids with me all day. I could maybe do some squats during lunch on days I don't have meetings though - the few kids in the room then will think I'm crazy, but oh well! I'll give that a try next week. Remembering will be the new challenge! I got in some last minute squats last night and am hoping to go for a hike today! (Have to get grading done first though...) 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment
SnowOwl Posted September 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Went for a run/walk hike today. It was good to get out and push myself! Also did a brief hold for the mini - had to carry some heavy buckets anyway. 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment
Sunmage Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Hey Welcome back What if you make your squats part of your teaching? Won't hurt the children to get a little movement after lunch, will it? Of course you have to demonstrate 2 Quote Fate whispers to the warrior: "You cannot withstand the storm."

SnowOwl Posted September 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 I keep forgetting! Maybe I'll set some fun alarms and whenever they go off everyone has to get up and do X 10 times. Squats, jumping jacks, push-ups, etc. Once the kids have it down they will be able to jump up do the thing and go right back to work - big surprise for anyone observing me! Maybe we'll change the thing each month so they can really get the hang of it. I went for another run/walk today after work with my husband. It felt good to go out after work, I never do that as it starts getting too dark. I need to get out there while I can! 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment
SnowOwl Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Didn't do great this week, but I'm trying. Missed my run this morning, my running friend got sick and cancelled and I stayed in bed, but I helped my husband stack wood this afternoon and have plans for a run after work later this week. 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment

SnowOwl Posted October 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Ran last Thursday and went for a hike today. Today was supposed to be a run but my husband got distracted by a new trail. Prepped lunches and smoothies for the week too! 1 Quote Race: Elf ~ Class: Druid Apprentice ~ Level: 12 Current Challenge 2015-2016 Challenges: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve 2018-2019 Challenges: (first one in progress) Link to comment
