Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to do a fun and healthy #CommitToFit campaign with Subway Canada as part of #CarlsCrew.
It was 6 weeks of challenges, some that were pretty tough I might add; however, it helped me to increase numerous healthy habits to my daily routine, and my family’s too!
If you’ve followed me on Instagram, you will have noticed that I am doing the campaign again! Woohoo!
The whole crew has been following this handy dandy chart to assist us with our challenge, it’s quite handy:
The only item I missed were the squats (probably because I don’t like them too much). Have no fear, I’m gonna rock it these final 2 weeks, how about you? You can also join up to receive emails about the challenges on the Subway Canada Facebook page.
This round of CarlsCrew challenges is a quick one though, it’s only 4 weeks long and we are already halfway through!
Last year I was honoured to meet the official real-deal Carl, the great role model leading the Carls Crew. He came to Winnipeg, so now that I’ve met him, I need to make him proud! Carl’s weekly emails are motivating and I love that he infuses his own personal experiences every time.
As with any type of physical activity, make sure you are doing what you can for your body type etc, and consult with your health professional as necessary.
Are you busy on September 29 at 8pm (EST)?
I hope not, because there will be a fun Twitter Party hosted by @SubwayCanada and you can win fabulous prizes! All you have to do is follow the #CarlsCrew hashtag at that time and you’ll be good to go!
That’s not all, I have an amazing giveaway to share with you! I’ll be checkin with ya this week to see how you’re doing on the challenges and give you additional opportunities to win, so stay focused folks.
GIVEAWAY TIME!
Open to Canucks of course! Ends Oct 12/15 Good luck all!
