The Challenge: Row 10,000 Meters Every Day For One Month

To ensure I got that workout in every day, I set my alarm for 4:40 a.m (I know, so early!), snoozed until about 5:00 a.m, got dressed then rowed from 5:20 to 6:20 a.m., so I'd have about 10 minutes to stretch before waking the kids up.

To ensure it happened every morning, I set my laptop up on a little chair next to the rower, so I could choose a YouTube video to entertain me. I was really loving shows about tiny house living, minimalism, whole-food, plant-based cooking, and The Moth stories.

I also made sure my sneakers were next to the rower, my Apple watch was charging (so I could track my workout and heart rate), and my clothes were in the bathroom. In the morning, I just had to get dressed, brush my teeth, head downstairs and row!
