Health Challenge

I have decided to take part in a 90 day health challenge. When my fifth baby was born I didn't loose the extra 25 pounds I gained. I have made token efforts to exercise, but with my SI joint permanently damaged (that's what I have thought for the last 8 years) there wasn't much I could do. Now that I am healing and my body is so much stronger I have decided to set some goals. The ones I have set are:

• Be able to do 3 pullups (I can't even do one right now).
• loose 10 pounds
• Run a 5K
• Swim a consecutive mile

My boys are training me. The other day after I came in from digging weeds out of my garden for three hours Reuben asked, "Have you done your workout?". Ugh. So I attempted the push ups and weight exercises on my list.

Today, we spent two hours at the pool, stopping at the climbing wall first. I LOVE that my SI joint is healed enough to do this. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but to me, IT IS A BIG DEAL! Thanks to what Reuben calls our #CaptainAmericaSerum, I can do so many things I couldn't before.
