Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
I did a nice workout outside yesterday with Wild Friends! There were about 40 people at Alberta Park that showed up for a nice circuit workout. It was nice to switch it up and workout in nature!
I went out and bought a bowl, plate, and utensils so that I can have reusable items at my desk. I use a lot of utensils during the week, so this will be an improvement!
