@Miami: Is that your dad/uncle/grandfather? (My uncle, granddad, and grandmom are buried in Arlington.) I'm grateful to all who have served or are currently serving! I wish I could go to the local Veteran's Day parade today to show my support...
I am amazed how hard jumping rope is now. I remember doing it for hours --- that, and pogo-sticking!
A propos to nothing: I really wish we could comment on each others posting -- like you can on YouTube, for instance, or on the news feed here on MFP. I read all the postings and laugh or nod with appreciation... and you all so often don't know it! For whatever reason, I find it really hard to respond to everyone in my post. So, I'm sorry if I'm not very interactive. I really do appreciate everyone's comments, updates, and accomplishments!
Challenge 1 - Jump Rope (so far, 10 piddly minutes... ) *hope to do more tonight
Challenge 2 - Total Arm work out (1 of 3) * hope to finish this tonight
Challenge 3 - Eat multi-colors: DONE
Day 1: red pepper (red), potato (white), eggplant (purple), cilantro (green)
Day 2: kale (green), carrot (orange), garlic (white?)
Day 3: cabbage (purple), onion (white), yellow pepper (yellow)
Day 4: quinoa (brown), , zucchini (green), apple (white?), tomato (red), black beans (black)
Day 5: kale (green), cabbage (purple), carrot (orange), cilantro (green)
Colors eaten: red, orange, yellow, green, purple, brown, black, white
I've been writing down my exercise on a piece of paper...although some of it I've logged on MFP this week --- I just haven't updated on here yet as that piece of paper and my computer time seem to never be in the same place at the same time!

My father @2run2ski, I also come from a military family. My biological, paternal grandfather served in the British Royal Army & all of my dad's brothers served. I also have several cousins who serve or have served in different branches in the U.S.
My family's a mini-UN, everyone married where they served, so cool.
Have a great weekend everyone!3 -
Happy Veterans Day in the US, and Rembrance Day in Canada, Europe and other locations!
Posting this now, even though I've not eaten my White and Yellow yet, but already have 3 colors for the day with my morning protein smoothie with berries. Pretty sure I won't have internet access much over the weekend since I'm staying with a friend for the race weekend, but will try to log from my phone. But wanted to post since I'm done with the third challenge @MissionEnforcer.
