February "Love Yourself" Monthly Challenge

 

Welcome to the FEBRUARY Love Yourself Challenge! For new members, every month we host a challenge to help keep us motivated to reach our goals. We are a very diverse group, many ladies are training for KDF or other spring/virtual races, other ladies are beginning their running journey and some aren't running much right now or focusing on strength. With Covid, many people are finding it harder to make time for themselves especially with kids at home, NTI, crazy work schedules, not leaving the house much, etc. This challenge will be focused on getting back to self love and self-care so it's adaptable for everyone, regardless of where you are in your running journey.

Because building habits is important, each day we'll have a different self-love focus that will repeat each week throughout the month of February. If you have a specific running/mileage goal, we want to know about those as well, so please share here in the monthly challenge.

Below you will find a breakdown of each day...and remember these will repeat each week:"

Mile Monday or Meal Monday: Make time for 1 mile every Monday. This can be a 1 mile walk, run, on the treadmill, stair stepper, elliptical or any version of cardio in which a mile can be calculated. OR Share a healthy nourishing meal that you are using to fuel your body.

Tuesday Tunes: Listen to some tunes that make you feel good. You can also share your favorite tunes that you love to listen to while running/working out.

Wellness Wednesday: Take time for your wellness - whatever that means for you. Some ideas are running, reading a personal development book, 3 things you are grateful for, self-love affirmations, listen to a podcast, listen or watching something funny to laugh, etc.

Thirsty Thursday: We all know how important hydration is for our health and especially running so today's goal is to drink ALL the water. Drink at least half of your body weight in ounces of water.

Flex Friday: Stretch, yoga, mobility for flexibility or do a strength workout.

Share Saturday: Share something positive with the group. It could be something you LOVE, are grateful for, an affirmation, favorite book, etc.

Silent Sunday: Meditate, read a book or digital detox and spend time away from screens!
