June Challenge

I am all about challenging myself.  Can I go farther?  Can I do more reps?  Can I beat my previous time?  Can I do more without being as exhausted? 

 During the months of April and May I challenged myself to complete the Couch to 5K program.  I can't tell you how many times I started that program, but I finally finished it.  Now, I LOVE running.  Yes, me.  I.LOVE.TO.RUN!!!  I have now taken my runs outside and it has become almost therapeutic.  I can just let my mind wander and let it all out.

During the month of May I challenged myself to wake up at 5 am every weekday morning and 6 am every weekend morning to complete the squat, crunch, and muscle challenges (all found on facebook)..




I also completed the "May Exercise Challenge" found here.  I went from nearly dying from the modified version of the burpees on day 1 to doing full sets of burpees by the end of the month.  

So, now that the month of June is here, I will be redoing the squat challenge (have I mentioned how much I love squats) and adding in the ab challenge. 
I have had problems with sit ups in past challenges because of an achy tailbone.  My goal will be to find a way to make it work.

How will you challenge yourself?
