RES Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I am noticing a reoccurring theme here...I've also noticed that my goals seem to be keeping me in the Adventurers, while I thought I wanted to get to a point I would move to the Druids, I find I'm rather fond of this class...so I'm going to stick around... So on to my other realizations...I find that I love how I feel when I eat Paleo, I am miserable when I stray from this...I love doing 5k's, never thought I would hear myself say that...I love how I feel after I do yoga, so at peace...I will love what I am able to do when I finish school, however I am rather burnt out on it and am trying to maintain, December 8th is my last day! I can do this! Paleo is not an issue, I do this daily without really thinking about it, so why is it so difficult to find my motivation with the rest of it? When I was doing my whole30 I documented in my (now fairly abandoned) battlelog, it helped to keep me accountable. This challenge I am going to do the same for my workouts/studying for the same reasons, I need something to keep me accountable! A – Elliptical/treadmill, 18 workouts (3x week - 6 weeks) (+2 STA, +2 CON)B – Skipped 1-3 (+2 STA, +1 CON)C – Skipped 4-6 (+1 STA, +1 CON)D – Skipped 7-9 (+.5 STA, +.5 CON)(which will irritate me because I hate fractions of points!)F – Skipped more than 9 I determined with the last challenge that I am not doing well at getting through the c25k, so I am going to start by doing 15 minutes on the elliptical or treadmill and work up to 30 by the end of this challenge, which is adding 5 minutes every 2 weeks (doable!) after that we'll work on c25k (aka next challenge )Also doing a 5k August 23rd (still need to sign up for this)A – Yoga (or BBWW), all 12 workouts (+2 STR, +2 DEX)B – Skipped 1-2 workouts (+2 STR, +1 DEX)C – Skipped 3-4 workouts (+1 STR, +1 DEX)D – Skipped 5-6 workouts (+.5 STR, +.5 DEX)F – Skipped more than 6 workouts. Homework, 30 minutes a day, every day but Tuesday, because everything is due on Monday, Tuesday is also a tough day at work so that will be my 'free day' +2 WIS, to be adjusted accordingly if I don't do it.

Stonie Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 You looked like you were having too much fun, so I joined the adventurers too! I really need to get my diet under control.

If you are running a 5k as part of this plan, why will you be doing c25k in the next challenge?I'm walking, not running, I've walked two 5k's so far...I want to do c25k because I want to actually complete the program (I'm stubborn like that), and I want to run a 5k instead of walking it.Got up early and did 15 min on the elliptical this morning!!
