Awesome August challenge - step aerobics, crunches, and plank

Yippie!

I logged on to record Day 9 of the Awesome August and realized I reached my goal of 40 consective days of exercise! I'm going to keep going and try to exercise every day this month.

I've really been working on building my stamina this month with step aerobics. It's been way too hot to walk. I almost went out during my lunch break It was 93 degrees! I can't wait for it to cool off so I can get some fresh air.
