Sandwich Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 My name is Sandwich and I get distracted. So, I joined NF just about a year and a half ago and I tried my first challenge. But alas, I fell to one of the classic blunders. I laid goal after goal, some rather lofty, fully intending to finish them all. But, after the first week or so, I stopped updating my challenge thread as frequently and my occasional post mostly consisted of apologies. Finally, I stopped posting altogether. So tragically fizzled my first attempt at a NF challenge.Since that time, I have taken Kempo classes for about a year and participated in a 5k mud run. Moreover, I have started classes back up at my local community college and have been mulling over tons of other options for what I want to do. With some better experience under my belt in self discipline and training, I think now is the time to return to NerdFitness and succeed where I previously failed. This time around I am going to set myself up to win. No more of my shenanigans. This time, Sandwich's got this! Sandwich, level 1 Half-Elf.

ARock10 Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Welcome back--Now try not to leave again if you can help it. The next challenge starts on Monday, April 15th, I think, so you should get in on that!

Sandwich Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Thank you! As for participating in the challenge, I intend to. Fleshing out my goals right now, actually. I even got my dad to do it with me, but he doesn't really want to post or update a thread about it, so his will be unofficial. Sandwich, level 1 Half-Elf.

Teros Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 re-welcome back! I'm brand new here and I'm going to be doing the 6 week challenge coming up. It's not worth apologizing. It's putting yourself down and then it becomes a thing that you dread to do. As long as you can say you're making progress and dust yourself off; that's all that matters. gl and have fun.

JasontheKiwi Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'll cheer you on, but I think I'm going to skip this one because we have a small baby and work is crazy at the mo (probably reasons I should do it, but...).
