From @musclegirlfusion:
"Since I started posting in this challenge, you've given me a reason to blog on steemit. No matter how discouraged I get when it seems like no one is reading what I write, I know I can write it and post it here and it adds to the challenge. So thank you for giving me the motivation I need to stick with blogging!!"
From @bitfiend:
"After starting 6 days ago I already feel stronger. This is definitely the most consistent exercise I've done in an extremely long time but I am happy to be taking part! While I walk around mostly in pain, I know it's all for a good cause! My health! I am feeling better and I'd say my sickness is mostly gone now. I think that if I had not been exercising, I may have been sick for a bit longer. Persistence pays off!"
From @mightpossibly:
"I find it deeply satisfying to do these reps, which is a big deal. I've always hated the gym and prefer to exercise at home. But I've lacked the discipline to do it. It sort of feels like I have gym buddies now, without the hassle of going to the gym."
From @notorious562:
"I seriously cannot explain how much this group pushes and motivate me to keep working harder. I love this fitness community and the support and encouragement will help us achieve our goals."
From @khufu:
"Your challenge has helped immensely to keep me motivated lately. I've had a lot of... problems going on so your challenge has been a quantum of sanity in an insane world for me."

I try to do it whenever I’m checking out the thread. I figure that is kind of the point of this movement. 😁
Yep, I don't understand people who don't upvote others... Isn't that the whole point of a community thing like this :D?

My notes:
Today was a kick ass day. I was not only able to get a run in, but I was able to double dip and get a Crossfit workout in. I felt so alive and thrilled to be able to kill 2 workouts in the same day. I am going to be running more this week since on Sunday i will be running a half marathon again. I hope that someone out there is inspired and motivated with my daily post. I would love to hear people success stories so please comment them below.
P.S I forgot to upload yesterday's workout on your post! SMH

Hey @steemmatt, I haven't get any SBD from you. Please cheak that.
I tried sending yesterday but the interface to send SBD was changed and it made me hesitant. It looks like it's a new permanent change, so I proceeded now and sent it.
yea I got it. Thanks a lot.
