It's that time again...

Get your keyboards warmed up.  November is NaBloPoMo or National Blog Posting Month.  Once again your mission if you choose to accept it, is to agree to post at least once a day, every day, in the month of November.  You don't even have to do real posts.  Even posting a picture or video counts.  Last year we were able to keep going for several months and really had fun with it.  Many of you kept up with the posting too.  So if your blog has been lagging lately, this is your chance to turn it around.  You can even sign up at NaBloPoMo to try and get some new readers and win prizes.  Who's with us?

1 down 51 to go

We have now reached the end of week one in our 2007 fitness challenge. We are feeling pretty good and have enjoyed spending time together while walking around the track. Next week we're planning to kick it up a notch by adding in some jogging to the walking. Paul's hours will be changing yet again for at least a few months so we will have to re-adjust our routine. Cyndi has taken a long term position in South Whittier as a Kinder teacher until Febuary. The new positions will add some stress until we figure out what is expected of us we are hoping the walking will help combat some of that.

Healthy Start

Paul and I have discussed a few things that we want to accomplish this year. I am not so sure all of them are resolutions (things we want to change) but instead goals.

The one I want to share with you all is our Healthy Living Goal. We plan to walk 2 miles every day in 2007. This would give us a grand total of 728 miles this year. However, we are challenging ourselves to make it to 750. This does not include daily walking of to the car, or errands these are straight 2 miles either around a track, on the treadmill or hitting the pavement. On the side of our Hutchins Blog we will have a counter with the Goal and where each of us stand individually.

In addition I want to do some weight training or additional cardio 3 times a week. I am also trying to keep a food diary. Paul does extra at work every day with the crazy amount of stairs he is up and down for 8 hours. So... there you have it, hopefully you will all be seeing drastic changes in us.

Today Paul and I did our 2 miles at Biola's track.
