Don't you just hate it when you have a long post and then it disappears. Oh well, I'll keep this one shorter.

Welcome Maria, Donna, Susan, mbeutler, and MaryRae. Congratulations on this commitment to yourself. I know that at the end of this 100 days, we will all be healthier, happier and wiser.

30 minutes how ever we want or need to break it up really isn't too much to ask. If need be, dance while your are fixing dinneror do core work or jumping jacks during tv commercials,

My plan is to RUN on Mon, Wed & Sat. Strength and Yoga on Tues and Thurs, Walk or stationary Bike on Fri and Sun. I have DVD's and dumb bells so I can work out at home.

What are your plans?

Susan, thanks for the suggestion about printing the 100 day chart and using various colored stickers or stars to mark off success. That visual will be valuable incentive to not skip a day.

I rode my stationary bike 60 minutes this morning prior to getting ready for church. DAY 2 DONE! (actually I started 12-26 so it is day 8 done, but I'm not counting that.

MaryRae, there are several good plans for beginner mini marathons. Jeff Galloway advocates a run/walk interval method. John Bingham maintains there is no need for speed.

I've learned the hard way that consistancy is the key to success and avoiding overtraining is crucial. Hence, I am gradually building my running time back.

Hope everyone has a blessed day.

Marie

Good for you all....Kirk, Susan, & Maria. I'm sure others have checked off day 2. Lets keep the ball rolling.

I just read on John Bingham's facebook that 7200+ have accepted the challenge and he is hoping for 10000. Encourage your family and friends to commit to moving their booty too for 100 days.
