Thank goodness its Friday

This week has been a long one for me! I have been counting down the hours until 5pm on Friday afternoon and now its finally here and I am more than just a little relieved.

1 // Yoga //

I have been all about my yoga practice lately! I go through fazes of being super into yoga in the evenings and then being super lazy on the couch instead through out the year but I really want to maintain my practice. This winter has made it slightly more challenging because the last thing I can be bothered doing after working all day is driving in the rain to yoga and back but Dylan has been making me go the nights he is home at 5pm and the other nights he is out at sport I feel more obliged to go so I hope I can keep it up. Plus look at the picture of the studio I attend below isn't it beautiful, its a old renovated church, its so relaxing in there.

2 // Trainwreck //

Trainwreck officially came out in cinemas here on Thursday and whilst I would have loved to have been able to view it on opening night work the next day would be practically impossible so I have post poned it for Saturday sometime. I'm not sure about you but Amy Schumer just might be my spirit animal, I feel we would be best friends IRL plus I recently found out that she went on holiday's with my other spirit animal Jennifer Lawrence who would also be a bestie IRL so that just makes me love them even more. (I really need to stop pretending this friendship will happen). 

3 // Prank Phone Calls //

As I run a shopping centre I am always on call incase something goes wrong. Last night I had a bunch of kids prank calling the work number which kept me up all night. It was incredibly lame, I can't believe that kids today think its cool to prank call someone, whats more these stupid kids didn't put their phones on private so I call have called them back and yelled at them, not that I would do that because I couldn't be bothered and wanted to go back to bed am a fully grown adult that would never act so childish!!

4 // August Step to the Beat Challenge //

How is everyone's August step the beat challenge going, it maybe Friday at 5pm and I may still need to get 6,737 steps today to finish at 10,000 to have officially completed the first 50,000 steps for the month but don't you worry I will be pacing all over my lounge room this evening to get those bad boys in.

5 // Vegan fact of the week //

Newborn piglets learn to run to their mothers' voices and recognize their own names. I am trying to convince Dylan that we should adopt a pig from a no kill sanctuary but he's still not sold on the idea.

How was this week for you? Did you link up with Oh Hey Friday?

August Step to The Beat 200 K Challenge

I spoke briefly about my August step challenge on Friday, I have decided to create a monthly challenge.

With August just around the corner I thought it would be fun to create a step challenge for the month of August, I have found them floating all over the blogosphere (I would have joined A Farmers Wife's most recent challenge but I saw to too late), the principles are pretty simple.....

<div class="The Hunt Life" style="width: 275px; margin: 0 auto;"> <a href="http://the-hunt-life.blogspot.com " rel="nofollow"> <img src="http://i1169.photobucket.com/albums/r503/gigigogo89/August-step-challenge-.png " alt="The Hunt Life" width="300" height="250" /> </a> </div>

.....the challenge runs from Saturday 1st August till Wednesday 31st August.

.....you can sign up after the month starts it just means you ill have to push yourself a bit harder to make up the lost days.

.....you need to complete 200,000 steps for the month, wow nelly that seems like a lot but it can be broken down however you like. If you want to get the majority of your steps done Monday to Friday and then rest on the the weekends just aim to get 10,000 steps each day you choose. 

.....but there are 3 extra days the last week of August what about that I hear you ask? Well you can choose to continue to complete your 10,000 steps for the day and break the 200,000 steps needed for August if you are feeling fancy!

.....where can I join up? Just send a email to the-hunt-life-@outlook.com to let me know you have joined up, grab the button and use the instagram tag #Auguststeptothebeat to post your progress on instagram.

.....if you would like to track this through fitbit then please let me know and I can add you as a buddy to help check in and keep you motivated!

.....but what do I get if I complete this challenge?? On completion of the challenge you will receive a weekly magnetic typo planner to help plan you weekly fitness goals. The person that complete's the most steps for the month receives a motivational BPA free 700ml drink bottle.

....if you have any questions don't hesitate to email.

.....oh and don't forget to tell all your friends, the more the merrier.

Will you join my step challenge?

Do you try to aim for 10 K steps a day?
