    I don't think the moon is quite full but it must be coming. I thought I worked with adults but I think maybe I was mistaken. :/

    No exercise for me today. It was an unplanned rest day, which is always appreciated.

    Wishing all of you a wonderful weekend. We've earned it.

    8/28 - red for no really good reason except I wanted sugar.
    25/25
    streak: 0

    @jenthibert - none of us really work with adults. It is an illusion. Our manager had to leave Thursday for a family emergency and you would have thought I was in a 1st grade class with no teacher yesterday.

    Very true but always a disappointment! Love the image you painted though. Humor definitely helps!

    Green today! 18 miles tomorrow. About 6 miles will be a trail hike. Today was 5.5, about a 13 minute pace.

    Anyone else been following the little league world series? The PA team is actually from just down the road from me. Its been crazy around here, but fun. I'm exhausted bc my husband and step son have been going to all the games and getting home super late. I need my sleep! !

    Today I just did a 30 minute walking video, but that was perfect. Tomorrow I'll probably do 8 miles or so. I have to attend a brunch, and my time will be limited.

    Hope everyone is doing well! @jenthibert You had me at 18 miles. :smiley: I can't wait to read how it went. That's so impressive.

    8/29 - green
    26/25

    Pay no attention to my diary that says -23. I logged a breakfast from IHOP that came with while wheat toast that my family ate. I didn't want to log the individual items. Without the toast I was just barely in the green.

    After looking for several months, we've been looking for something reliable and inexpensive for my teens to drive occasionally while they save for their own cars. We finally found what I wanted today. A 1997 Mercury Mountaineer with 72000 miles on it that we got for $2000. I am happy with that, less taxi driving for me.

    Was at 19/26

    And then it hit the fan. Work is very bad. Will take some days to get back on solid ground.
    Sleep and food are suffering. (And so is logging accuracy)

    8/27: poor logging, little eating: Green 20
    8/28: poor logging, poor eating, but likely green 21
    8/29: better logging, Red 21/26

    No way today can't be green. 18 miles in about 5 hours and 20 minutes. Tough one, we all had issues. One lady had issues with her knee, one had sore heels and my stomach was really squirmy off and on. Thankfully that went away as I plan to enjoy our homemade pizza and a beer! It was tough but we all finished.

    @MelissaPhippsFeagins good luck w the teen drivers! We have two in our house. Oh, do I have stories!! Tires that miraculously deflate, mystery road debris that punctures tires, fun times. AAA had been our best friend!
    @jenthibert wow! What a walk!! Sorry everyone was having some sort of issue, but you guys finished and yea, you totally earned a beer (or two!!)
    @Laughter_Girl how was your run??

    Mine was only 4 miles yesterday, which makes me laugh bc 4 at one point was a challenge! I ran at the park that's really hilly. Whew!

    One of these days I want to pick up the pace and run outside. Just need to get over being self conscious! I used to run several years ago and loved it.

    We have a teen driver too and I hear ya about the tires, debris AND stinky teen athletic gear! Ewww....

    8/30 - very green - like I should make myself eat something else, but I don't think I could

    And I did it!!! I squatted and dead lifted 100 pounds today!!! Go ME!!!

    @bbinoa, good job on your run. And AAA has been my best friend for a while. I have an unfortunate knack for locking my keys in my car and I don't want to change my own tires anymore. My truck is an F250...i could probably lift the tires now, but I'd rather let someone else.

    My run was light today. I only did a little over 6 miles. Time got in the way. It seems everyone is doing the best that they can. I'm sleepy tonight, but I'll chat tomorrow.

    8/27 green reached goal
    8/28 green
    8/29 green
    8/30 red ate at church pot luck.

    27/25

    Next month I am reducing my calerie goal. I am trying to maintain weight. Even though I hit so many green days. I gained just a bit. Not very much but I would hate to continue the tread.

    It was a rest day today. I'll get back at it tomorrow.

    @bbinoa Yes, August flew by. I'm sure your daughter looks cute with her braces. I remember those days. Glad you got that walk in!
    @k80flec Congrats on that streak! Good to see you posting.
    @tatho2014 What a green streak!!!
    @kirbygirl41 Hope the church potluck was yummy. Maintaining the weight can be a challenge. I think I've finally found my happy place, but I'm sure it'll change. You are sure to find your perfect calorie goal.
    @MelissaP Congrats on achieving such an awesome accomplishment! You're one strong lady!

    Finished yesterday with a Chevy green day. Kinda last track of my numbers after I hit this month's goal, oops!

    Need to take a good look at September before I set my goal. Hubby and I are going away for a weekend (celebrating our 20th anniversary which was in July) and I know I'll be splurging, but it's also a weekend of hiking at Acadia National Park, one of our favorite places and where Steve proposed ☺ The B&B has tea every afternoon and includes dessert. I'm going to ask them to hold some aside for us as I doubt we'll be back from hiking when it's served, lol!

    Total 23...did not hit goal.
    Moving forward.

    Excellent work ...I can not wrap my mind around the number of miles that this group must have slogged / jogged / 5K'd and walked this month!!! You are a bunch of movers and shakers.
