The 4x Challenge!

It has taken me awhile to figure out what I wanted to do for my follow-up-non-weight-but-still-tangible challenge.

I was trying to do pushups and I got to 25! Yay! Then I realized I could use them as part of my challenge. Then I realised I also wanted to incorporate my marathon training into it. And situps! And Pikes!

So I thought about what I can easily (relatively) do now. I decided that since 10k is the run I like best, and 40k is about a marathon. I would quadruple everything and call it my challenge!

Here it is!

4x Challenge 2012/2013
Pikes: 12 x 4 = 48                                                          Reward: New bathing suit
Pushups: 25 x 4 = 100                                                   Reward: Pedicure!
Situps: 50 x 4 = 200                                                       Reward: Massage at Langdon Hall
Running: 10.5 km x 4 = 42 km                                     Reward: Running in a marathon!

I have until April to get to the distance for running, so I am hoping the cross training will help get me ready for the big day!
