October Challenge Adjustment

As of Monday, 11 October I am at a 100% success rate in my self-imposed challenge to run once a day for the month of October.

I managed to run every day during an extremely busy work conference last week, but last night, after getting back in town and settling back into my normal routine, I caught myself thinking "Man, I've earned a day off. Maybe I won't run tonight." I still ran, but I got to thinking about things as the month wears on.

In order to combat thoughts along those lines, I've decided to adjust my challenge. Instead of each day's run being worth $3.00 flat, every day will grow in value by $0.50. Between today, Tuesday, 12 October and Halloween, Sunday, 31 October, the run value will grow from $3.50 to $13.00! With this daily increment my run will be come more expensive, thereby warding off thoughts of "oh, maybe I won't run today."

So! Keep checking up on whether I ran the day before - you might get some green for it!
