Christmas Challenge Week 1

Bike- 33 of 150 miles.
Run- 15 of 75 miles.
Swim- 0 of 5 miles.
Lose 10 lbs-0 of 10 lbs gone.
Gospels-Halfway through Matthew.
Track food- Good the first couple days... than... came Cody's surgery.. needed groceries.. excuses, excuses. Right now I am baking cookies! It's Christmas. I can't let my boys miss out on all the Christmas traditions. Ok. Ok. So they are too little to know. The cookies are for me.
Plank-Can hold for 30 seconds now :)

So I am not wear I hoped I would be by now. But I also forgot about Cody's surgery. You are probably thinking, okay that's one day! Right? Wrong. 4 days spent in Hollywood in December so far due to his surgery. It's the 9th. That's 4 whole days gone.. so 5 days to accomplish what I've accomplished. Not too bad! But I can do better.
My knees are still feeling achy. I've been standing up a lot running errands and cleaning. Time to stretch them.. but HOW?
Like this.

You've got your plate full sweet Adrienne!!! I don't know how in the world you do it with your husband being gone. Just make sure you're not over doing it and that you're taking some time for yourself. Oh, and awesome job on the plank challenge. I'm at 25 seconds (3 sets each) but have been slacking off...oh boy!!!

I love planks. And that stretch is my ABSOLUTE favorite! I never realized how much sheer PLEASURE I could get from the right stretches. Keep up the fantastic work!
