The challenge starts tomorrow

People that know me know that I’m always keen for a challenge and not happy if I’m not busy with one or planning to undertake one. In recent years these included losing nearly 30kg of body mass, training up and completing my first 10km, first half and first full 42km marathon.

Not forgetting about the 160km on a cycle around Lake Taupo, 4 day 360km+ cycle events and a number of other challenges which I have forgotten about or simple don’t want to recall....

... one of the biggest motivators for me to succeed is to tell as many people I can about my new challenge and pride not to be labelled a loser does the rest...

So my next challenge is simple:
100 days of fitness which include (or better said, exclude)
- No carbohydrates for 100days
- A diet of fat and protein as much as I like, whenever I like.
- 1 hour continues cardiovascular exercise every day (running, cycling, rowing, walking, whatever)
- 3 litres of water a day

The aim is to lose 10kg+ weight and increase exercise intensity as I progress. Simple and straightforward.

I’ll be updating this blog every few days and weigh myself every tenth day to plot my weight lost progress online.

Tonight (31 Aug. 09) is my last night of freedom and planning to make it a good one.
