Markiel's Challenge

[markiel_tero]

For my 6 week challenge, the main quest is to lose 6 lbs.

 

In order to do this, I will work on my hiking/road marching.  I will get my 12 mile time to under 3 hours while carrying 30 lbs of additional weight.  Also, I will work my L-sit time up to 1 minute straight and steady.  And lastly, I will get my 5 mile run time down to 45 minutes. 

 

The reason I am working on these specific goals is that they are, with the exception of the L-sit, actual requirements of my current profession, and I would like to exceed the standards that are set by my organization.  I plan on losing 24 lbs over the next 6 months, as well as dropping my 12 mile time to 2 1/2 hours with 35 lbs, and running sub 36 minutes on my 5 mile.  All of these goals will put me in the running for Scout/Sniper platoon within my battalion, something that I have always aspired form but never put forth the effort to do.

 

-Edit:  Forgot to mention, my challenge won't start for another week.  I'm not in an area where I can weight myself.  I'll still be working on the other stuff, but won't be able to get a starting point for a week or so.

Hi!  Welcome to Nerdfitness :-)

 

Those are excellent clear goals.  Very measurable.  An L-sit would be a rather odd work requirement.  The others are clear.

 

You'll be right on to come in for the next challenge then.  Watch the top bar for the new challenge forums to be posted.
