Thirty-one Days of Fitness

I've not written for a while and I don't have a particular reason for that but here I go...

I follow several fitness blogs and one of them is Fitbie. Before the end of April, they started a fitness challenge that got me excited. The fitness challenge, also known as FitStreak, is to workout for at least 20 minutes everyday in May.

I jumped on the opportunity because prior to seeing the promotion for the challenge, I was going to workout everyday in May anyway. Participating in the challenge makes me more accountable and it's fun. It's exciting to tweet hash tag "FitStreak" that I completed the challenge. It's even more exciting when I get a retweet. Simple pleasures.

In addition to teaching group fitness classes, I make sure I still workout so that I focus on me. When I teach, I focus on making sure that the participants get a great workout, check their form because I want them to do the exercises correctly, and have fun. When I do this, I don't get a full one hour workout as I would like.  

I'm on the #FitStreak challenge and for my health, I feel great. Here's to your health!
