exercise_every_dayAs promised last week, here is the October Challenge Declaration Post!
Challenge yourself for October! Find a fitness goal that you want to achieve, that you can achieve, with diligence, in one month.
Declare your goal by October 1, then on October 31 we will have a roundup of how we all did!
The goal can be simple, like being able to run a mile by the end of the month (even slowly!).
It can be progressive, like moving from wall pushups to floor pushups.
It can be process oriented, like trying to exercise 25 of the next 31 days.
Try to make it something YOU want that is challenging but doable.
If you want to participate and you just can't think of anything, check out what everybody else posts, then copy somebody! :D
I also offer a generic challenge: Achieve 20 pushups in a row at 45 degrees or lower.
If this works out and people like it, I'm thinking we might make this a monthly event, with a challenge declaration post around the 26th, and a challenge results post on the last day of each month.
So let's get started!

Breaking the Tuesday Hardees habit will probably be much more difficult than anything else I do this October. (And the ladies there are so nice! They know me! They'll miss me! How can I deprive them of the joy of my smiling presence?)
