Are you ready?
Brad and I have decided that we need to get into shape. In order to help us do so we have designed our own fitness challenge for the summer. It rewards us with points for good things we do like going exercising, eating fruits/vegetables, and drinking plenty of water. It also punishes us for being lazy and eating sweets. Brad has been so organized with it and has programmed an Excel sheet to tally up our points. I have no talent with with Excel so I'm really amazed with what Brad has done with it.
Along with the benefits of a healthier lifestyle, we have incorporated prizes to keep us motivated. We each get individual prizes if we get a certain number of points, but we also have prizes for if we earn a certain number of points together. That way we both try to motivate each other to work hard.
So, this morning we went out for a hike. We live so close to Slate Canyon we can just walk out our door and be in the mountains in two minutes. Slate Canyon has so many trails that we are going to have to go on a lot of hikes to explore them all. Today we went up a few of them.
One of the most amazing things about Slate Canyon is the breathtaking views. You can see all of Utah Lake from many points on the trail.
We had lots of fun taking photos up the canyon. We're going to go out again on Saturday for a much longer hike to see what we can find.
So, are you ready?

Way to go. Ryan tried to start a Packer Family Fitness Challenge a few years ago, but never got past how the judging/prizes should work. Hope yours is more successful than his.
