31 things challenge Update

So...we're close to the challenge coming to an end...like I said before, I'm gathering up people for the next challenge, you in? want more info? let me know....

It'll be a birthday challenge...by your next birthday what fitness goals do you want to do or achieve...for me, i'll pick 30 things until my 30th birthday :)

Alright, my update.

Work up to 25 full pushups (I've been doing my p90x and working out, I can tell my chest muscles have gotten stronger, I might just try and do 25 pushups this week)
Track food daily (yep)
Try a new recipe weekly (yep)
Blog/tweet update daily (yep)
Share my goals with friends (yep)
Meditate/journal at least weekly (ish)
Take before/current/after pictures (need to take after)
Get 7 hours of sleep (uh oh, do naps count?)
Incorporate more weight-training into my schedule (love it)
Learn one old Turbo Kick round (this is hard!)
Eat at home more often than out (yep!)
Walk Dolly each day (ish)
Celebrate successes not weight based (yep!)
Run local stairs with friends weekly (yep! when it hasn't been raining)
Increase outdoor running mileage to 5 miles / run ** I can currently comfortably run 3 miles outside, would like to just get back to running around 5 (I might just try this tomorrow morning)
Finish reading In Defense of Food and Women Food and God (finished Women Food and God, definitely recommend)
Try P90x weekly (love it)
Call/email/text my family daily (stole that from Monica's) (almost daily!)
Stop hitting snooze (hopefully getting 7 hours of sleep will help, this is also stolen from Monica) (er)
Go to the Farmer's Market on Saturdays (have gone once, need to go again)
Stay committed to health even when on vacation/out of town (haven't gone out of town since Memorial Day)
Park 'n' walk when I go to stores (stole from Crocker, this will be hard when it's hot!) (i've done this more often than I thought...even when I go to the gym)
Turn my computer/cell phone off an hour before bed (um)
Set health intentions for the summer and year (setting the challenge is my first step)
Say when i'm full and stop eating (that's so hard!) (getting there)
Don't compare myself to others, enjoy my journey for myself (found so much freedom for that)
Make weekly menu and meals on Sundays (YEAH!)
Finish unpacking our house (need to do the last stuff!)
Clean/garden weekly (love it)
Encourage and read group members' blogs/tweets/updates each day (hopefully 'm doing that!)
Check in with group members to see how they are doing and to update how I'm doing (hopefully i'm doing that)

Hm, I like the idea of the birthday goal. That's a good amount of time to really work on some stuff! I'll have to give this some thought.
