12 Days Til' Christmas Challenge!

So.. here it is! The 12 Days Til' Christmas Challenge! As I was sitting on my couch last night with the hubster, I was trying to think of something that would be fun to encourage fitness with my friends and family before the holidays! That's when the word "challenge" popped into my head. I love competition (all those years of soccer ha!) and thought it would be fun to have some cross country motivation with close friends! Think of how good we'll feel going into this holiday ahead and ready to eat and drink to our hearts content on the happiest day of the year!

Here's what it entails:
  1. For the next 12 days I challenge us to get out and do something active, something for YOU. Doesn't matter if it's a class, a jog around the park, or the daily workout I post.
  2. Encourage yourself and those around you by checking in on fb, twitter, or texting/emailing with motivational or inspirational posts!
  3. Try ONE new workout you have never done! I think I'm gonna try TRX..heard it's an awesome workout!
  4. Share healthy recipes - it can be anything from trail mix and other snacks to full blown dinners!
  5. Workout with friends/family!
  6. HAVE FUN!
