    Konichiwa! Congratulations to our challenge leaders on getting things worked out with posting our destination to Japan. I had no idea fall was so beautiful there!
    I love the calorie counting goal. I know I'm going to need it after tonight when we have bags full of candy around my house. It's just so tempting to dig through my kids trick or treat bags after they go to bed :wink:

    Yes, if you watch them both videos may award yourself 20 minutes. This is a one time only deal! I’m feeling generous. ;)

    20 minutes watching videos although movement not too much jiggling plus 10 minutes gentle stretch. Sorry but been advised not to do squats due to injury but hopefully will be on the mend in another week :/

    I'm in total awe. How does everyone get so many miles in? I would love to do more but an hour workout usually does me in lol. I'd love to contribute more though.

    I know I'm retired and all my kids are older too. Your doing a marvelous job! I usually split my workouts throughout the day, morning and evening.

    It would be a good idea to message hawkins410 and talk about a way to modify the challenge due to your injury.

    CALLING ALL RACERS! DON'T FORGET TO USE THE OPTIONAL WEIGH-IN SHEET IF YOU'D LIKE!

    You can find it under the "Weight Track" Tab on the regular spreadsheet.
    Don't worry if you didn't start during Week One, it will still work for you!

    Sylvia - I have 7 children and when they were at home I didn't have one minute to myself or if I did find one, I didn't have the energy to use it exercising :) Now they are grown and out of the house and I have all kinds of energy. Of course you know I love to hike. It pushes me to the limit and then I have to find the energy to stretch if I want to walk the next day. lol My husband loves to veg in front of the TV in the evenings so we moved our TV out of the bedroom and into the exercise room. If we want to watch, we have to be on one of the machines. I have 2 treadmills, an elliptical, a bike, a healthrider, a glider and a "all in one weight machine". So no wasted travel time to the gym. I do ride my bike to work sometimes or just go in early and bike along the parkway in the mornings. I actually own 2 bikes, one is at home and I keep one at work. (I am the boss so I can pretty much do what I want at work). These past 4 weeks I have pushed myself harder than I have for awhile and I am amazed at what the body will do. In the beginning, I did the amount I could. Then everyday I would up it just 5 min. Of course, I use different muscles each day and different intensities.

    Awesome Shauna! doing squats while your children trick or treat.

    Well, no leftover candy here (Yay!!! because I would just eat it). And I threatened my husband to NOT go buy any half priced Halloween candy at the store! lol (because he would)

    morning Rajio Taiso done. It's a nice warm up for anything you plan to do.
