 Finished off the year with a fab workout written by Johynee. Getting ready shortly to go and get my reds, greens, magnesium and l-carnitine. Eager to watch tomorrow's live stream after work to find out the details on the New Year's challenge it they are going to be like in years past or like they were this year.

 Woke up with a headache this morning that lingered most all day so I did keep my hair appointment then did get in 1 mile walk and pliability but that's about all I felt like doing today. This morning listened to Jackie's message that she's leaving the app team to work on the Phorm Energy team. I chose Team Kelly and sent her a message late this afternoon so will probably get a reply in the morning. Tomorrow's plan is to get into the gym and get either a hyrox style workout in or one of Johnyee's gym workouts.

 Not sure why but I'm only getting 21 hours at work next week. I'll talk to Tiff on Friday to find out why and tell her if I don't get more hours then I'll have to look for something else I can't live of 21 hours a week when I'm supposed to be full-time and getting 30+ hours.

 Tomorrow is the official start of the Last Resolution Challenge hosted by Johnyee Storey of Alpha Fitness Pittsburg. I might take Johnyee up on borrowing a 15# Kettlebell from the gym to use for my workouts during the challenge. Decided tonight to have L-Carnitine with my nighttime drink so I'm going to begin my day with it and end my day with it. Already have my Micro Factor pills broke down and in the funnel, Mega Watt, L-Carnitine and Creatine in the funnel. I think I could probably swallow the Micro Factor pills OK but don't want to take a chance just yet so just doing the powder with everything else in the morning.

 Completed Day 2 of 7 on Step Marathon Week 2 of 8. Completed another day of 1 mile a day and Pliability short routine. Completed my steps goal by 7PM and now my watch can fully charge it's at 51%. Got into the gym this morning and forgot to put my towels in my backpack for wiping off the machines. About a month ago or so Aaron and Johnyee changed out the paper towel holders for shelves to put towels on theirs are microfiber and of course I forgot I had a green one in my bag that I've had for a while. I've put my Zumba towels in my bag and still have my green one so I can use my own and not have to worry about putting theirs into the basket by the door.
