Off on the right track!
My 2013 fitness journey began today. I got in 30 minutes of toning doing the Jillian Michaels Six Week 6 pack video today! Only 51.5 more hours of toning to go this year! :)
I'm waiting for the snow to dry up to start on my miles (although one of my last miles to finish out 2012 was completed by walking circles around the yard while the snow was coming down on New Year's Eve... note to self to not get so far behind on miles in 2013).

Today I also started the Facebook group for those who are up for the challenge of walking/jogging/biking 365 miles this year. I'm quite overwhelmed by the amount of people who agreed to take on the challenge even knowing there's no prize at the end of the year! So inspiring! It's a no-lose challenge. Even if you don't make it all the way to 365 miles any miles you get in is better than none. I did find that the more miles I put in and the closer I go to my goal, the more determination I had to make it. Which is how I was able to put in 18 miles the last 3 days of the year!

For those wondering how to keep track of their miles... I purchased a Garmin Forerunner watch online through Wal-Mart at the beginning of last year. That was one of my best purchases all year! I love it! I have also used the Nike Running App on my phone (its free!). But I did find that the App is not as accurate as my watch, which surprised me. Either way you'll be close to knowing how far you went. I also set challenges to go further each time, or faster, or jog more of the mile. It led me up to completing my very first 5K all ran last year! That was a great accomplishment, too.

Well good luck to all who are making 2013 a year to take control of their own lives and bodies! You won't regret it!
