The Challenge

Yesterday (that being 9 min ago) I did a challenge that Tara over at 263andcounting.com put out. It was to do 92 minutes of working out on 4/16/2010. Well, I am happy to say I did it! Not only did I do it, but I shattered it at a whopping 95 minutes!! OK OK, maybe that is not really shattering the goal, but I sure as hell made the challenge.

I did 60 min on the treadmill, 10 min on the elliptical (that machine is still defeating me, it kicks my ass), and 25 min of weights. All together I supposedly burnt 1093 calories. I say supposedly because the machines said one thing and my VidaOne Diet and workout program say two totally different things so I don't know what one to believe. So I just went with the lowest of the two and that was what the machines totaled out at.

It was a nice workout and I am looking forward to the next challenge on Tuesday the 20th set forth by Tony at theantijared.blogspot.com . His challenge was to do 60 min of working out on that day. Well, I already know I can do 95 min, so 60 is not a big challenge, so on Tuesday I will make it a challenge for myself. I will do 60 min of working out...BUT...I will do 30 min on the treadmill and 30 min on the elliptical! Now some of you might be thinking, blah...30 min on the elliptical, that is no big deal, but if you have been reading this blog you know it's a big deal for me. That machine always kicks my ass big time. My longest time on that beast as of yet has been only 10 minutes. So for me to attempt 30 minutes...well, that is huge. I will let you all know how I do and by all, I mean all two of you who follow this blog so far :p.

So I think Tuesday's quest will give me enough XP to level up and hit 2. :p
