So as we all head into the new year we are all faced with the concept of New Years resolutions. Oh I have made
them before only to fall short of my goal as life (family and work) take over my good intentions. So this year I decided to get my friend Angela involved in my New Year resolution so that I have to be accountable to someone other than myself. Oh, I guess this would be a good place to tell you what my New Years Resolutionis.........well the plan is to be
physically active for a minimum of 30 minutes for all 365 days of the year. That is right every single day of 2012. So now you might be asking why are you blogging about it? Well Angela and I were trying to figure out how to keep each other on track, she lives in London and I live in Collingwood. We tried google calendar but that was really frustrating and then Angela sent me an excel sheet that had dates on it and that is not that much fun. So when I was snowshoeing the other day I thought to myself maybe I should blog about our efforts - make us accountable not only to each other but anyone else who might be interested in what we are up to. So that is the beginning of this blog I hope you enjoy and I look forward to your comments.

The Week of Days 107-113

Well this has been a busy week with no time to blog.  So here is my "coles notes" on how the week went.

Day 107 - Monday - Started with an Active Life workout - this was testing day - which I feel I did pretty good at - improved my time and got close to some of the fastest times on the board - my excuse is that my legs are too long which kills precious seconds!  Then did get in a 45 minute run on the treadmill too.

Day 108 - Tuesday - today was technically my day off - I was really, really tired and my legs hurt from Mondays workouts.  So I ended up going for a brisk 45 minute walk at the end of the day.

Day 109 - Wednesday - sleep in and missed my run with Sarah and Jen - so I ended up jumping into a great one hour spin class later in the morning.

Day 110 - Thursday - another morning at Active Life - today was a great strength workout.  Then in the evening the boys and I went for a 50 minute walk.

Day 111 -  Friday - jumped into another Active Life class - since we are in between sessions for the next two weeks I thought I would get one more in just in case!  Another great class with lots of cardio to.

Day 112 - Saturday - Today was a sleep in and boy did I need it. Was hoping to get a bike ride in but it was raining, windy and cold - not my favourite combination.  Ended up jumping on the treadmill and caught up on HGTV for 50 minutes.

Day 113 - Sunday - Surprisingly got to run with Heather - whom I have not seen a lot lately - it was great to catch up and to get in a 9.5 km run (she did 10km - had to run home from my house).  Turned out to be a great day, it was still windy but the sun was shining so on the trail it was really nice.

Well there you have it my week in a nutshell.  All caught up and ready for the week ahead - talk to you tomorrow
