dedicated december 2012.

dedicated december is a challenge for you to stay active during the month of december. you will get one point/entry for EVERY workout you complete!

for each and every workout you complete in december,leave a comment on below. make sure you tell us what the workout was!

examples:

  • “today i ran 3 miles in the bitter, bitter cold.”
  • “today i went snowboarding for 7 hours! yeahhh pow day!”
  • “today i went to the gym and completed a lower body workout using free weights.”
  • “today i shoveled snow for 45 minutes. i shoveled my neighbor’s driveway, too!”

make sense?

sorry, but shopping, baking, or chasing your dog/kids because they got a hold of the expensive christmas gift for your mother-in-law does not count as a workout.

oh, and if you are die hard and worked out twice in one day (at separate times) then by all means leave two different comments.

every comment you leave (meaning every workout you log) counts as one entry.

i will draw a name from the comments each week and announce the winners of each weekly prize. here they are:

week 1 (december 1 – december 8) prize: fitmixer aminos & blender bottle!

week 2 (december 9 – december 15) prize: mixed case of larabars!

week 3 (december 16 – december 22) prize: gymboss interval timer!

week 4 (december 23 – december 31) prize: thermos cold hydration bottle!

Oh my goodness I can’t believe I’ve been forgetting to log my workouts! I’ve done some really good ones recently including a few crossfit workouts with my hubby :-) Yesterday was 5 rounds of 15 kettle balls, 15 box jumps and 15 hang cleans. It was a good one and I surprised myself by using a 24 inch box for the first time!
