Active Family Month Blogger Fitness Challenge : Week 2 "Active Playtime"



Week 2 of our Active Family Month Blogger Fitness Challenge saw us attempting a series of circuit training in Highgate Woods....

Highgate Woods is our local woods & I .like to think we know it like the back of our hands.

Challenge 1: a treasure hunt
Challenge 2 : running a circuit of the football pitches....
no mean fit & much harder than it looked, a good incentive to practice & improve though!
Challenge 3 : push ups/pull ups & cycling on the equipment already set up there....
as many as you can do. Only one of us could do pull-ups!
Challenge 4: on your bike, a circuit of the whole wood.
Challenge 5: parents only - how long can you stay on a skateboard? Not long at all apparently ;)

This particular challenge was so much fun & it was fun to be out together, all trying activities that we never normally all do together.
We were all very supportive & encouraging of each other....and the children loved watching their parents trying to outdo each other :)

Bring on the next challenge!!
(unfortunately we arrived at the woods with an uncharged camera & terrible phone reception, hence the lack of photos :( )

This month my family & are taking part in the 
we have pledged to participate in one activity per week as a family. 
The Mark Warner campaign is focusing on families to get fit together whilst participating in fun activities.
