10,000 Step Challenge Results...AND new challenge

I am so happy that I inspired so many of my friends to get up and moving. While I didn't walk 10,000 steps every day, this challenge has definitely changed my daily routine for the better. I walk to the MUNI station every morning, walk home every night, and generally more active. I hope it has done the same for you.

Now, my coworkers and I have come up with ANOTHER challenge...actually, it's a contest. We're going to all workout, no matter the length or the difficulty, and mark it down on the calendar. Whoever has worked out the most times in the month will win, well, something. Our first idea was a beer or cookie...but that really defeats the purpose. But anyways, we're all off to a good start.

The other night it was a cold windy SF evening, so I decided instead of a jog, I would try one of the workout videos streamed to the computer on Netflix. I've always wanted to learn how to dance, but since I have two left feet bigger than any ever encountered, I am way too embarrassed to go to a class setting...yet. So I decided to try one of the Crunch Dance videos.



That blonde girl on the right is even more obnoxious than the host. Yes, really.

SO how did I do? Let's just say that half way through I gave up paying attention to the lady and started doing my own booty dance.

I wasn't fooling Archie. He knew this was worse than even the blooper reel of "So You Think You Can Dance" and by the look on his face, I think he was starting to get concerned that I was having some kind of attack.

I'm not giving up though. I'm going to figure out that top-tap-shuffle thing if it kills me...or the cat.

And I'm gonna win this workout contest.

Let the games begin!
