Back 2 Basics Challenge

I feel so lazy sitting on my butt all day and not doing anything. 
Screw this knee problem.
I'm over it.
Another one of my reasons for not pushing myself to get back to the gym is that I'm saving money by not paying for another month at the gym. BUT! I know that once I pay for that month, I'm going to get the most for my money. 


A friend of mine on MFP posted about a Back 2 Basics Challenge that she's doing and as the description says, it's a "a swift kick to get back on track" which, in my opinion, is what I need, as well as some nice strong pain meds for my knee (LOL!). It starts on Monday and runs until the end of July. Not only will it motivate me to keep working, but I am the type of person to work really hard to complete a goal/challenge, which is what this is!


There are four challenges:

  • Weight loss: 5% of body weight 
  • Miles: 90 (walk, run, jog, etc) 
  • Calories burned: 18,000 
  • Minutes exercised: 900 

I'm going to try to complete all four of them!
