On October 3rd of this year I will be entering the last year of my 30's...I'll be
The number doesn't scare me in the least but it did make me reflect on some things that I might like to do that would make me a healthier and more well rounded person.
I had a fleeting thought that I would like to spend the year doing 30 day challenges...so 12 challenges over the course of the year. But then I was immediately stymied by wondering what to do for each month.
I knew a few things I wanted to do such as meditate for 10 minutes everyday and run a 5k everyday for a month...but then the ideas dried up.
So I turned to the almighty Pinterest.
Most of the challenge ideas they had were exercise related...and whereas I would like to get into better shape again...I didn't want to spend the entire year working out.
I was able to find these two blog posts with 100 ideas each and from there I narrowed it down to the 12 I wanted to complete.

The twelve I decided on, and in order that I will be completing them are:
