karinajean beats the terrible horrible no good very bad winter of quitterdom

Everything about that update got me like

 

I think a 10-race grand pix sounds awesome, especially as you keep thriving with all these runs! I'm also a huge fan about learning to lift, but I'm not sure when on earth you'd manage to find the time in your schedule. 

 

I also love this bath article even though I don't really like baths.

I really want to lift, because I think my body type loves muscles, and I want to see what that's like on me. but, yeah. I don't know when I can do it -- unless I stay at the dojo on tuesdays and thursdays late, and have someone else pick up twelve and bring him home to his mom's house. I just haven't made the "ask" yet.

 

I have a love hate relationship with baths! I don't think I'm doing them right because I reach a point where I'm like: this is boring! done!

Congratulations on all the milestones achieved - and that you have (so far) survived February!!!  

[Lara]

I am always amazed by your levels of energy!

Hey! That wrap up was great, lots of things accomplished! So glad the test went well Or are you not happy with how the video turned out?

[Priscillia]

You've done so so much!  Congrats on the test and on slaying the craft room cleanup!  Plus all those milestones, shiny.

What a great article!  "Sit in your own filth in the dark and get a little bit drunk and pray for daylight saving time, here before we know it."  

 

Really like the 10 race grand prix idea.  Now sure how often you need to train so I suppose it could be tough to add lifting too.  I think they are a great compliment though.  Maybe you have some weeks with more focus on running and then switch to a few weeks of lifting?  It's hard to fit in all the fun.

I either watch stuff on my laptop or listen to music. Occasionally with a beer or glass of wine. Then it's not boring.

ack, guys. another 4-week challenge that I feel like I totally punted. Now, if this was a 6-week challenge I'd be dusting myself off and getting ready to finish strong for weeks 5 and 6. meh.

 

anyway. I owe a recap, I need to set up a new challenge, and I'm going to keep this up until I can get it right. I hope I can get it right. I hate this vague feeling of not getting it right. today, though, I'm stupid busy. hope I can get to it tomorrow

It seems that you work better in 6 week periods. Why don't you keep doing 6 week challenges? I mean, it is not forbidden. I had lots of problems to adapt to the 6 weeks format, so I finally decided to do 4 week challenges on my own. I was a bit of time-lag with the rest of nerdfitnessers, but it was manageable, and the most important, it helped me. And NF is about helping yourself, it doesn't matter how many weeks the challenge lasts.
