Done

I am done with my Holiday Challenge, 102,655 meters.I still have a couple of days left at work to add to the total except I'm finished working out for the year. This decision came hard to do as I still enjoyed the exercise, but I'm disappointed with the reward from the challenge. For those many meters, I only made $2.11 for the charity of my choice! That's it! I'm so disappointed that all motivation has left me. Another 10,000 meters for the next 2 days would've only net an extra $0.40. Should I do it for so little? I think not especially since I absolutely don't want to be here for the rest of this week.So, it's good to take the next two weeks as rest and reformulate my exercise goals for the upcoming year. I think I'll be including the rowing machine in my routine, but not as much meters. I averaged 30,000 meters for these past three weeks excluding yesterday. That's a lot and my knees kind of hurt. I'll probably try to do half as much in less time. I'll want to increase my treadmill time as that is a good way to build stamina quicker than the rowing machine. I'll want to do more resistance training which I abandoned on this quest. Welp, it looks to be a nice ending and a good thing for the future. I've got some goals.

The Spirit of Christmas Future

Next time, to get into the Christmas spirits just put on the soundtrack to "A Charlie Brown Christmas." The opening bars of the opening song, "O Tannenbaum," is so holiday is ridiculous.

Trying to collect the base cards and the Polar Bear minis. Especially the Orioles

Then I got some minis that are supposedly signed by the players. Here’s the couple that I’ve got.
