On day 21 of this year long read of the Bible in chronological order. Read a few chapters daily then listen to a short (6 min) podcast.

Texreader How‘s this Recap book? Is it good? Do you recommend it? 3y
robinb I just purchased this! Haven't started on it yet...what do you think of it? 3y
Felso The book is really not necessary. It‘s what she says on the podcast, maybe a little different wording. But she does talk really fast so it‘s nice for me to have it. Also it‘s nice to have if I‘m someplace where I can‘t listen to the podcast, I have the book to fall back on. 3y

Felso I really do like this plan. I have it on the youversion Bible app so that helps me stay accountable. You read about 3 chapters a day and then listen to a quick summary that‘s about 6 minutes or so. 3y
robinb Thanks! I'll have to check into the podcast. 3y
eanderson I was curious about this! One of my friends is doing the one on the Bible app. I‘ve been doing the Bible Project through the OT and have been working on the NT. I may have to check this out. 3y
Felso @eanderson I love the Bible Project, I‘m planning on doing that next year. 3y

#bookfitnesschallenge Didn‘t meet walking goals but did well elsewhere. Finally got out to the pool today and walked in the pool. Felt glorious!! I‘m going to try and do that 3/4 times a week. I can read, catch some rays and walk. Win-win-win! @wanderinglynn (started points this week -65, ending -79)

#bookfitnesschallenge Only goal met was supplements taken. 😐 Still not feeling 100%. Finished another book- 3 completed and still listening to one. @wanderinglynn (points beginning of the week 61, ending 65) I‘m hoping to get to the pool next week so I walk in the water. ⛱

Oops, forgot to post check in yesterday. Still feeling sick, coughing my lungs out. So walked just once. 🙁 Didn‘t drink enough water this week. But kept up with supplements 🙂 Finally went to the doctor today, hopefully this cough and congestion will be in it‘s way soon. Great job everyone for meeting your goals, I‘m cheering you on! #bookfitnesschallenge @wanderinglynn

LiterRohde Just happened Thursday night! After a full day teaching and then 4 hours of parent teacher conferences in the evening, some coworkers wanted to go for a drink. I said no, I‘d rather just go home and read. “Oh, come on, come on. It‘ll be fun.” Repeatedly. I had to say yes so as to not look like a jerk. At least that‘s how I felt. So, another two hours around people at a bar. Hooray. 🥳🤬 5y
