Challenge: 52-52-52

52 weeks. 52 books. 52 pounds.

The goal of the challenge is simple. It will go from June 1st, 2011 to June 1st, 2012 – 52 weeks. In those 52 weeks, challenge participants will try to 1) read one book each week and 2) lose one pound a week. If all goes well, a year’s challenge will lead to 52 books read and 52 pounds lost in 52 weeks. It’s that simple!

This challenge is being hosted at The Zen Leaf. The main challenge page is here.

This challenge is now being hosted at Mandaland with a link in the sidebar.

I do belong to another 52 books in 52 weeks challenge and have already failed because I missed a couple of weeks but this one doesn't start until next month and I can concentrate on the health part each week as well as the number of books read. I love that challenges can overlap and that this 52 in 52 adds the health challenge.

Side note: haven't failed, she just wants us to read 52 books this year.

There are five important notes about the challenge on the main post plus letting us know that while she won't tell us how to lose the weight, she recommends SparkPeople (so do I). I hope she gets a team going.
