Interests: I like hiking, urban exploring, and just generally finding new places to be.  I've also recently taken up running and yoga in the hopes of having a more holistic approach to my health. Talk to me about Star Trek, conventions, cosplay, or anything else that tickles your fancy. If hiking or camping is your thing, I'd love to hear more.  Looking for a squad?  Tell me your goals and we'll see if we line up.  Regardless, let's be friends!

 

Main Quest:

I've never run a 5k before, and I'm hoping to be able to jog one all the way through without stopping by the end of this challenge! (no matter how slow I go)

Quest 1: Get Strong!  - Strength training at least 2x a week (A > 2x a week - B = 2x a week - C = 1x a week)

Reward: Massage

 

Quest 2: Get Fast! - Run/walk at least 5 miles a week (A > 5 miles - B: 3-4 - C > 2-3 miles)

Reward: Manicure/Pedicure

Life Quest:

Sparkling Smile: Brush Twice a day and floss once (A: Brush twice floss once - B: Brush once floss once - C: Brush once)

Motivation:

I'm technically 'in my prime', and I want to take full advantage of that to create habits I can have for life while it's still pretty easy.

Do you have a specific 5k in mind? My frinds just did the 5k color run and it was really cool.

 

Also a big fan of conventions and cosplay.

Hi!  I'm planning on doing the Color Run in November, it's just a question of whether I can run it all the way through at that point.  

 

What cons do you like?  I've been to Wondercon, ALA, Fanime, Anime Expo, and San Diego Comic Con.

Day 1 complete!  Ran/walked 2 miles during my lunch break (took me 29 minutes because I'm super slow) and completed two rounds of circuit bodyweight training after work.  Also ate spinach with garlic salt and butter, and just need to brush my teeth before bed for a completed day!

 

Anyone out there watch Arrow?  I can't get over the abs on the men of superhero shows/movies.

I have always wanted to go the the San Diego Comic Con. I have only been the ther Vermont  Comic Con and the Montreal one. I am planning on going to a Wizard Con and maybe a BlizzCon next summer.

 

Good Luck with the 5k. The Color Run is a lot of fun.

have you figured out what didn't work in your first challenge?

 

You might notice that someone has added a tag to your post.  This is not to box you into a corner but rather because your goals or lifestyle have links to the guild you've been tagged and we'd like to bring you to the attention of one of their guild ambassadors. These ambassadors will be able to offer you advice, encouragement and support on your goals.  You don't even have to wait around for them to come introduce themselves to you, you are more than welcome to pop into the Scouts' board and introduce yourself to the guildies there. I am also around to answer any questions that you might have so do not hesitate to PM me.

 

Good Luck with your challenge
