Are all you Canadians as excited about the @x_weighted challenge starting in January?

Me?  Well since I apparently enjoy torturing myself putting myself on the spot for the world to see and since we’re already planning on conquering the half marathon in May, I think why the heck not sign up for this too?!?!  I mean, my plan already is to train hard all through the Winter and the Spring in preparation for the race, so why not take it another step further for a chance to win some awesome stuff which includes three grand prizes:

• A weekend getaway and customized training session with fitness expert Paul Plakas at his Canmore Retreat;
• a Toronto makeover weekend by stylist Fred Connors, courtesy of FRED.beauty, Tourism Toronto and The Fairmont Royal York, Toronto’s landmark hotel; and
• a fabulous home gym provided by Ultimate Sports Equipment. 
• Additional prizes include Detecto scales, New Balance gift certificates, Nature’s Path gift baskets and more

So I guess we can call this the “bulking” phase for pre initial WI? lol
