My next Bloggiesta project is one I’m very excited about — setting up a weekly meme for reporting and supporting exercise goals. Each week, we report how last week’s workouts went and discuss our plans for the coming week. It’s a great accountability technique and a wonderful source of encouragement when things aren’t going well and acclamation when we reach our goals.

I’m taking over CHECKpoint from Bookworm with a View, with Mari’s blessing. Given the nature of Mari’s blog, and mine, the event has been attracting mostly readers, so we’re rebranding this a bit. Everyone is welcome to participate, of course, but I’m mostly aiming to attract people who think of themselves as more bookish than athletic.

I want some input! What do you think of the idea? What do you think of the title “Readers’ Workouts” for describing it? Would you participate? What would help you participate?

Here’s the logo I’ve been working on (Edited to add: plus a new toned-down color option):

What do you think of it? Does it seem to express the project I described? Would you put it on your blog? Are the colors okay? Is the text readable?

Thanks for any input you can provide! And, watch for this — if all goes well, it will premier on Tuesday!
