Twelve months, twelve challenges: Meet this athletic inspiration
Updated | By East Coast Radio
A challenge for every month of 2022...
It takes dedication and intention to set time out in your day to focus on you. Whether that means you focus on your mind or your body (we suggest both), it shows commitment to yourself.
This woman has made it her mission to focus on smashing out challenges spread out through the year, in aid of helping female athletes, who form part of the extreme and endurance development athletics space.
"Ingrid Avidon ascended and descended the Westcliff stairs, Johannesburg, 177 times marking the beginning of her 12-month extreme adventure challenge. A challenge believed to be the first of its kind, especially for a woman, entails her completing one extreme challenge for each month of this year." (Business Insider)
You see the thing about these kinds of challenges is that it pushes people to commit. Once you have communicated it with everyone, you have to follow it through. This is a great model of thinking.
It pushes you to actually concentrate on achieving your goals. Whether that is to help someone else or helping yourself, it is important to positively change your mental attitude when trying to achieve physically and vice versa.
