A Sisterly 8-Week Challenge
I’m participating in Sister Sassy & Sister Honey Bunch’s 8-week challenge. Week One was kind of a wash for me, but week two is off to a great start! Sister Sassy posted a mid-week check-in today and asked that we all post our weekly goals on our blogs… and there’s a PRIZE! So if you haven’t signed up for the 8-week challenge, comment on the mid-week check-in post and get yourself enrolled! My goals for the week are:
- Do at least four 30-minute runs BECAUSE (Sister Sassy asked that we write WHY we’re focusing on these particular goals) running is a huge stress reliever for me and supports my goal of becoming more competitive in 10K races.
- Do at least three strength training workouts BECAUSE ever since I had surgery last year, my upper body strength has dwindled to virtually nothing. This supports my goal of being able to do 25 boy pushups, which is on my 101 Things list.
- Write at least 5 pages of my short story BECAUSE I really want to submit a story to the Glimmer Train New Writers Competition, and the deadline is coming up fast!
What are your goals for the week?
Good luck with those goals. They’re great ones.
I decided to walk a good distance every day and I arrived home with a foot that pinched me with every time I took a step. LOL My spring start needs a warm up.
I am finishing the rough draft of my mainstream ms this week.
WOOT!!! Want it in submission by summer.
And I’m going to spend more quality time with my pets.
Good luck with your writing entry.
Hugs, JJ
