the bobby bones workout challenge!

hi friends! well, since my last post i have felt much better, and am so thankful for that. maybe the teenager is gone (well, the bad parts of being a teenager i guess)! anyway, let me share with you a new challenge i am going to take on, starting today, that will help me meet a lot of my goals i have shared with you in the past.

its bobby bones' 45 workouts in 45 days challenge. any other fellow listeners out there? i listen to the bobby bones show every morning as i get ready for work, and love it (you should all listen, too)! bobby, amy, lunch, and carlos all let me start my day with laughter, and the thing i love about them most is that they are real people who make you feel like a friend, even though you are just listening. i have to admit, i follow them all on twitter, and saw one of bobby's tweets today: that he is setting a goal for himself, to work out 45 times in 45 days, no days off, unless he is sick. quite a lofty goal, but he has invited others to join him in this challenge.

i read his tweet just after i got home from a refreshing, long bike ride to the lake. so, today's workout is done! i am going to jump in the boat and accept this challenge. i think it will be great for me, for so many reasons, but i think it may actually happen because there will be many others out there doing the same thing, and blogging about it. strange, but i think this real but not so real support system may help me stick to it, for reals. :)

want to join? visit bobby's blog at http://bobbybonesworkout.blogspot.com.

for me, just in case you are curious, i plan to work out in a few different ways: some days a long bike ride or run on the trail, others working out at home before work, and then sometimes i'll go to the rec for a yoga class or for a swim. does yoga count bobby? :)

excited about changes to come!
