    For one of my challenges I chose to take showers that are shorter than five minutes to help save water. Before the challenge started I timed one of my showers just to see the normal time I would take. Although it wasn't extremely long it was still around eight minutes so I had to work on cutting it down. At first when I started the challenge I felt rushed during my showers, but now that it has gone on for a while I have gotten used to the shorter ones. So throughout the ecochallenge progressing it has become easier and easier to complete this task.
