The Challenge
The 2nd annual better healthy living challenge is coming up next month. I can’t believe it’s been a year already but I’m ready for it, are you?.
Last June, the challenge was a hit. Sure hope you’ll jump in and participate! The rules have changed just a bit this year and are much easier than last.
Since my readers are a nice mix from beginners to advanced when it comes to fitness, weight loss and healthy living, we are going to keep it simple. Simple is good!
Your goal for this challenge is to focus on doing ONE new thing every week that will impact your life in a positive way. If you are more advanced, step out of your comfort zone and go for something big.
Here are some examples of things that might impact your life in a positive way:
- Try a new workout
- Sign up for a race or start training for one
- Find a new recipe and make it
- Help someone in need
- Say something positive about yourself or someone else
Those are just a few ideas. You can choose to do whatever you like. The goal of the challenge is to incorporate something fun and meaningful into your life.
Challenge rules:
Every Tuesday in June (starting 6/12/12), I will have a challenge post where you’ll need to check in and comment to let us know what you did to better your life the previous week. Everyone who checks in each week will be entered into a drawing to win a prize. Everyone who participated the entire month will be put in the drawing for the GRAND PRIZE I’m donating, a Polar FT7 heart rate monitor and Polar FlowLink
. And who knows, there might be more goodies added to that grand prize.
If you have a blog, you can post your challenge update there. Then come over to the Tuesday posts and link back to your blog.

LOL but I’m so glad you’re in! I wanted to keep it simple this time around. I mean last year was good and a huge challenge to do a full 30 days of exercise but I think this round will be much easier and every will feel comfortable participating. Good stuff!
