Courtney's Summer Challenge: Week 1
Kick-off your summer with Courtney and some necessary "me" time.
Welcome to the kick-off week of Courtney's Summer Challenge! Your challenge this week: "Take some time for yourself and just move."
Courtney wants to see you take a walk each day this week, and she reminds that a week has seven days in it! She doesn't care how long or how far, just that you do it. She also reminds that this "me" time is so important, and that you can't take care of others unless you're taking care of yourself first.
Week 1 Prize: DIR T-Shirt and Free Wholly Guacamole (Winner: ALYSSA)
Participate in the challenge by posting below. It could be your progress, success, hurdles, or even encouragement for other participants. We'll draw one winner to receive a shirt and some tasty guac, announced week 2.

I walked outside twice yesterday; does that count for today? :-)

I just noticed the challenge yesterday. I walked my dog yesterday and haven't done well today. Stuck inside writing a paper that's due tomorrow. My goal is to join in this and get moving more; if I get out every day, that's more than icing. It'd be cool to win the guacamole, but it'd be better if I at least start walking more.

forced myself to go to the gym and did Cardio fusion class (which is a step aerobics, and weights. Now I feel great!

I just got back from a 35 minute walk tonight! I did it briskly, and I had my itunes workout mix up loud, and at one point, I actually found myself singing along, and throwing my hands in the air, and then I noticed this couple sitting on their porch watching me! :-) they smiled and waved, so I waved back, giggling!

I did my walk last night with my daughter who is 7 months pregnant. She did pretty good. We will be walking each night, until she can't anymore.
