    Congrats @Ejourneys!! Great job!

    I am still very unmotivated to workout. Should have done some strength training today, but at least I forced myself to get on the gazelle while watching some TV (better than nothing).

    1 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.02 miles); 3 min planks (67 sec, 34 sec (cramped up), 33 sec, 63 sec) = 33 minutes
    2 August: 12 min resistance bands workout (Day 1 - Upper Body); 26 min "30 Day Shred" DVD (Level 1); 31 min gazelle machine (2.00 miles); 4 min planks (64 sec, 62 sec, 63 sec, 63 sec) = 73 minutes

    6 August: 180 min clean up work at church; 18 min resistance bands workout (Day 2 - Lower Body); 30 min gazelle machine (2.18 miles) = 228 minutes
    7 August: Rest Day
    8 August: 45 min gazelle machine (3.23 miles); 4 min planks (64 sec, 61 sec, 64 sec, 65 sec) = 49 minutes
    9 August: Rest Day - not feeling well.
    10 August: 60 min gazelle machine (4.18 miles); 5 min planks (93 sec, 62 sec, 92 sec, 63 sec) = 65 minutes
    11 August: 60 min gazelle machine (4.29 miles); 5 min planks (124 sec, 93 sec, 94 sec) = 65 minutes
    12 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.17 miles); 3 min planks (123 sec, 62 sec) = 33 minutes
    13 August: 93 min SUP (3.4 miles) - moderate chop and head wind going out / calmed down on the way back in = 93 minutes
    14 August: Rest Day
    15 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.05 miles) = 30 minutes
    16 August: 61 min SUP (2.65 miles); 30 min gazelle (2.15 miles) = 91 minutes
    17 August: 13 min resistance bands workout (Day 1 - Upper Body); 30 min gazelle machine (2.12 miles); 3 min planks (straight arm - 2 sets of 60 sec; bent arm - 2 sets of 30 sec) = 46 minutes
    18 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.02 miles) = 30 minutes
    19 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.06 miles); 3 min planks (61 sec, 62 sec, 61 sec) = 33 minutes
    20 August: (just house work / cleaning)
    21 August: Rest Day
    22 August: 30 min gazelle machine (2.04 miles) = 30 minutes
    23 August: 35 min gazelle machine (2.28 miles) = 35 minutes

    Just as well I completed challenge early as it's all gone to pot this week as I've been looking after my baby niece so not been able to do my morning exercise as that child doesnt want to nap lol Had too much to do in the evenings but on the plus side I have been dancing around with her so its not a complete lost cause.
    I'm off camping for the weekend tomorrow (Bank Holiday in UK) so will be doing plenty of walking but may not be able to log until I come back as not sure if wifi there (not sure how the teenagers will cope with that but will be amusing to watch the cold turkey).

    I'd so tally the dancing time with your niece. That's exercise/activity, and not something you'd typically do. Have a wonderful time on your holiday!

    Aug 13 - 408 km cycling (1485 min) ... no, that's not a typo. :grin: My husband and I rode a 400 km randonnee starting at 7 am on Saturday 13 August and finishing 24 hours and 45 minutes later. I have the story almost ready to post to my blog, but essentially ...

    We've been training for this for the past two months and chose this particular one because it fit in our schedules and was relatively flat. We started strongly, but at the 200 km point, I broke a tooth (the tooth was in questionable condition to begin with) which made the remaining 200 km a little more challenging than I had hoped. Breathing through my mouth was painful, so I was reduced to breathing through my nose. And eating was painful, so I ran rather low on energy. I was hoping to finish within 24 hours, but I guess an extra 45 minutes wasn't too bad. :)
    We rolled into the start location at 7:45 am on Sunday.
