Holiday Bootie Buster Challenge recap week one

phyllisNovember 25, 2012November 25, 2012

This has been one very good week.  I was looking forward to my first HBBC since learning about it at the Healthy Living Summit this August.

The group is very motivated and we are all checking in and encouraging each other.  I am super excited to see all the amazing goals we are going to reach at the end of this.

My goal was to particiapate in challenge everyday.  It was going to be tough with work and holiday travel but I did it and it was easy because this group is amazing

Runs- 6

Miles 25.77- PR 10 k with my daughter – upcoming post a my time was 1:05:56. My 10K in May was 1:15:10!

My second 10K was this morning and my time was 1:07:00. Sitting in the car riding back home took its toll on my lower back.  It bothered me a bit but still it was a great race with a small crowd of super motivated people.

WOW- Loved seeing Amanda on youtube. the pushups on the third go around didnt love those so much!

Strength/core-7 ( I do a plank a day every day and I up to 2 minutes plus I add in upper arms/core work for a total of 10 minutes a day)

Yoga- did a yoga class this week. I have to work at this more over the challenge

Fruits and Veges- this is easy for me since I am daily green smoothie person and a vegan!

FUN- daily check in on twitter # bestfoot ( best hastag ever) and on our facebook page to encourage each other and see what goals are next. Tweet chat was a great “mixer” this week

I am very  excited for next week.  Runners Streak is on so running every day #runnerstreak.

Chuck will be joining me for the Santa Scramble 5 k in New Haven on Sunday and I have santa hats and santa socks.  Hoping for a fun run and a pain free run for my hubby.

Here are a few pictures from last week.

    You need to take part in a contest for probably the greatest blogs on the web. I’ll suggest this web site!
