30 for 30
25 Oct
Ready girls (and boys)?! Let’s take a walk…
In addition to committing to eat healthy, I propose we take a challenge together to walk for 30 min for 30 days. This in addition to making healthy lifestyle changes will also be a healthy change [for our] heart. 
Challenge Starts: Nov 1st
Ends: Nov 30 th
*Optional Additional Challenge: 1 sweet a day for these 30 days + 10 push-ups a day.
***
Q & A
How do I report in?…
Nov. 1st starts on a Saturday, Nov. 30th ends on Sunday. So, every Saturday report (i.e. 4 out of 7 days) as a comment on this post, the last report-in will be, instead of Nov. 29th, we’ll extend to Nov. 30th. Also, if you did the *Optional Additional Challenge – please include that in your weekly report as well.
*View sample report below (comment area)
Does it matter how I do my walking?…
Of course not! Whether it be on the treadmill, or outside, as long as you get walking consistently for 30 min. Also, speed doesn’t matter. Slow or fast, run or jog – do what you can.
Will there be future 30 for 30? Or is it just for Nov. ?…
There will be more, but I’ll edit the challenge to help us progress and keep it interesting. 
How can I help spread the word?…
Yes! Please do! Grab these images below and link them on your sidebar to the appropriate blog post:

Man, I was really bad this week. FOrgot all about it. SORRY.
I will do much better this next week.
I’m adding in some water for myself this week. I’ve been skipping it lately and drinking only Pepsi. (so bad, I know). I’m going t challenge myself drink at least 2 glasses of water a day for starters.

Note: I did not recognize that I did only once last week. I need to work on that for this week especially with Time Management.
Agh, I walked for about 5 hours this week and did yoga twice. Next week, I’ll do better and put in the proper format you’ve asked.

OK I know it looks like I just gave up. But I am right back up and going again this week. I gave my self a free eat day on Sundays. I have found my desire for certain crappy foods is going away.
