Fitness Challenge: Day 1

I've been looking for something to help me focus on doing something about my fatty fatness and I saw this fitness challenge online and thought I'd give it a try.

The Ironman Triathlon Fitness Challenge for December has begun! All skill levels (and distances) welcome. You do not have to aspire to be an Ironman to join this challenge. You may join at any time and adjust your goals to fit how much of the month is left. (We'll be back next month, too.)

The rules are simple:

Between December 1-31, you must complete:

2.4m of swimming (4200 yds)
112m of biking (any bike indoors or out will do)
26.2m of running/walking/elliptical

Add up your distances and post them to the daily thread using the following format:

Earned Today (or most recently) / Earned to Date / Goal for Month

If you do a little bit at a time it is totally manageable.

Will you reach the finish line by the end of the month? Good luck

I started today so here's where I stand:

Running/Walking: 0.5mi / 0.5mi / 26.2 mi
Biking: 10 mi / 10 mi / 112 mi
Swimming: 0 / 0 / 4200 yds

Ashita ga aru sa

There's always tomorrow.

Thanks to the Jelly Pinched Wolf and Kashi, Bob and I were recently introduced to this song. After hearing the song, we looked around online for a translation and came across the following music video on YouTube.

There's an English translation at the bottom of the screen - the video just made us love the song even more!

I get mad, I get mad, I GET MAD!

For years I've been listening to Bob do this Sesame Street skit about a goat that "gets mad!" I've always loved his rendition, and finally found the skit online at YouTube.

Enjoy: Sesame Street - I get mad!

Which Sci-Fi crew would you best fit in?

Found this over at Fiat Lux!



You scored as Enterprise D (Star Trek). You have high ideals and know in your heart that humanity will continue to evolve in a better people. No matter what may happen, you have faith in human beings. A rare quality. Now if only the Borg would quit assimilating people.
