NeuroPunkNonsense Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Last month my mom suggested we participate in our community's Coldest Night of the Year walk. They have three distance options - 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km - and we both agreed to the 10 km one. Unfortunately it's been a while since I've walked 10 km. I have until February 22nd to train. Goal 1: Walk 5 km every Monday morning before work. Goal 2: Walk an extra km/week on one of my days off (Week 1 - 6 km, Week 2 - 7 km, Week 3 - 8 km, Week 4 - 9 km, Week 5 - 10 km) Goal 3: Stretch 3x/week All donations I receive for walking will go to those hungry, homeless, and in need in the Oceanside community. 2 1 1 Quote Current Challenge Reboots: Sane Cholesterol / Perfectionism Horse / Charity Masquerade Wheel II Wheel Triumphant Present Stumbles Original Challenges: 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Link to comment

NeuroPunkNonsense Posted January 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 3/3 stretches complete. I might up my stretch goal because it feels so damn good.

NeuroPunkNonsense Posted January 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 It's snowing. I might have to take my Monday 5 k to the gym. Assuming I gather enough willpower to actually be active.

DJtrippyT Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 This is a great challenge and it is so you. I remember when you learned a few words in Hungarian just to make a lady more comfortable.

NeuroPunkNonsense Posted January 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Half points for Monday. I walked a total of more than 5 km but didn't do a 5 km walk. 1/3 stretches complete. 7 km walk unlikely to be completed. We got positively drenched in snow here this week. I did, however, shovel snow which is a great (read: painful) workout.

NeuroPunkNonsense Posted January 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Got knocked bloody with the one-two punch of winter and illness.

NeuroPunkNonsense Posted February 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 So uh. Oops. Guess this challenge was a bust. Still doing the 10 km for charity but I got in a lot less training than I intended to.
