12 days of fitness

     I received this fitness idea from runner Martinus Evans and started yesterday. Modifications are fine.

Day 1, 1 jumping jack
Day 2, 2 burpees plus 1 jumping jack
Day 3, 3 pushups plus 2 burpees 1 jumping jack
Day 4,  4 lunges plus 3 pushups, 2 burpees, 1 jumping jack
Day 5, 5 mountain climbers, 4 lunges 3 pushups, 2 burpees, 1 jumping jack
Day 6, 6 air squats, ............etc
Day 7, 7 high knees, ...........etc
Day 8, 8 spiderman planks........etc
Day 9, 9 crunches.......etc
Day 10, 10 supermans......etc
Day 11, 11 glute bridges....etc
Day 12, 12 ab bicycles.........etc.

     Already on day 2, I realize how hard this will be.  Burpees are not my friend. 


     I thought I might get a jumpstart on getting healthier next year by running the Resolution Run 5k on New Year's eve afternoon, but of course it is cancelled again this year due to covid19.  


(daily ex. update, walk 4 miles, ytd walk 920.4 miles.  pm tm run 4.5 miles, ytd run 1452.5 miles)
