Bright smiles coming your way from a member of Team Fab Five:
As I sit here in my recliner, listening to Nightcore music, sipping my caramel coffee, and reading a My Little Pony Halloween Comicfest book, I look forward to next weekend.
That weekend is our annual Akron Comic Con. It'll be in its 5th year, and I have gone to every single one. It had to be moved to a bigger venue, and now goes for two days since it's been such a success.
I was thinking about cosplaying for this one and it got me thinking of all the costumes I have planned. I have so much fun dressing up and escaping into fiction for a day. The people I have met that also cosplay have been so kind when asked about how they made something, or for tips or ideas. This bunch is genuinely happy about their passion.
If you're a cosplayer, I advise you to enter a contest at a convention. It's fun walking around and having people ask for your photo, but getting the chance to have the spotlight on you, even if you don't win, is the best feeling in the world. You worked hard on your outfit, let everybody see it.
Smile everyday, laugh with friends, and enjoy life. Forget what you don't have and appreciate what you do.
Happy Hallows Eve!
Wishing you all good health and happiness.0 -
Not a mistake team mmckeon11 and I both had 450 minutes today!!!!! Did our first century ride over in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I will post a photo once I have access to my laptop.

I'm so sorry, team, I failed at challenge #3 this week
Had a few late nights and gave into the cravings. It's just been an insane week and I've had little downtime, which drives me crazy. My family is waiting for me in the kitchen so we can all carve pumpkins, but I had to finish logging before the spreadsheet locks! I promise to do better next week! Gotta earn all that candy I'm sure to eat, right? :P 3 -
So proud of our team!4

Good morning team 4!
I am excited about Week 3 challenges. The sumo squats are in line with my plans for this week. I have planned to start heavy lifting this week & the only way I do squats is in the wide sumo stance. I had only planned 75, (5 sets of 5 x 3 days) so I will also have to do some not weighted sumo squats to finish the challenge.
I am really glad they didn't have the water challenge this week too. There is nothing worse than going to the bathroom a zillion times after squat day!
On that thought... have a great Monday!5 -
I got a bedroom painted. It is something that has been nagging at me. Including the ceiling. Looks great and I am so happy it is done. Also bonus down .5 pound. I will take that. 4
-
I am kicking up the workouts this week now that that painting is done. You would not believe how good that feels. I have blogged about cleaning your life plate. This is my 2016 goal. I think it is going to roll into 2017 but that's OK I will keep chipping away on the list.4
-
Can I just tell you guys how excited I am about this weeks challenges? And not to mention relieved nobody is trying to completely restrict me from eating candy
Staying under my calorie goal should be simple for me, I'm doing a 7 day slim down starting today and it's low in calories to begin with so I'll be able to squeeze in a piece or two of mini sized candy while it's readily available
Happy Halloween!!4 -
I wish we were supposed to avoid candy! I don't eat sugar. That would be NOOO problem! Calorie restriction I hate!2
-
I did two of the videos today, the second video I recognized some of the moves from the first one. I did like how my joints and muscles felt when I was done and I think I'll like it even more after I do them a couple times and get the moves down better. Also squeezed in 40 squats, legs and booty are feelin it!
I had such a busy morning I hardly had time to eat, and my healthy lunch got thrown out the window when I ended up at my moms house after my sons school Halloween party and was starving because I didn't eat enough in the morning. I swear her house is full of junk and when I'm starving I have absolutely no control. So my lunch was crap, but I'm not too worried about it!
Hope everyone's having a good Monday!!3 -
I have never run home after lifting weights at the gym, before today. Even though heavy lifting, for me right now, is pretty low weight, my legs still felt a little wobbly on the run back. Already, can't wait until the restarting pain goes away, in a few days.3

I managed to watch the Kyoto videos and do two of the radio tasio videos-- like the tasio videos as they helped to loosen me up. As for the Sumo squats, not overly thrilled with them this week as I did the ride yesterday and have a 1/2 marathon this Saturday-- but I'll get them done over the week (for the team ) Did 25 today, will try to double it tomorrow.
So read on the question thread @mckeon11 that there are "finisher medals" for 1st 2nd and 3rd place. 4-6 get "participant awards" . Not that I am competitive at all but would love to see our team get one of the medals!!! 6 -
I did 2 videos and 40 sumo's today:-) Happy Halloween!3

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!2 -
I got up this morning and did the 2 stretching. This is going to be really hard for me because I hate mornings. I did solve my computer problem so cross that off the list. It took me 3 days so it was a big problem but now it is done. I did also watch 1 of the movies. This is also really hart for me so I did some hula hooping while I watched it.
It's going to be a great day.3 -
Good morning all!
I did the stretching this morning, did 15 squats (40/140) & I went for a run. That will probably be it for me today. My legs are killing me from starting weight lifting. My run was more of a walk because I definitely did not drink enough water. I was under my calorie goal yesterday, so on track for all challenges so far this week.5 -
Good Morning Team,
I did my 2 videos yesterday and today. I have 25 squats done and will try to do more later.
I was under calories (with lots of candy) yesterday. I didn't sleep well with all that sugar in my system. I think that cured me. Have a great day!4 -
I really like those morning videos. It does loosen me up for the day. I've also started my squats and have 30 done. I'll try and do a few more later today. I didn't know there were medals to be won. I want one!2
-
Morning videos done and 30 more sumo squats left to do this week. Staying under goal so far. Let's do this!2
-
Half way finished with those sumos and boy oh boy can I feel them!! I love the morning videos, I workout in the morning. Like an intense workout, st 5am. So I have found that I enjoy doing them after I'm showered and ready for the day, once my muscles have calmed down
Happy Tuesday!!!2 -
Two more videos down and another 100 sumo squats (since it's my day off), 50 to go!
3 -
50 squats done and did a big walk after work while it was warm

@SmashleyM914 After my walk I was feeling a little stiff and did one of those videos and felt great afterwards. I'm also feeling those squats!4
-
@darcijojo Did you do #5?? It is the one with the 3 woman where 1 was sitting on the chair. I am working on those squats. I am at 75. Half way. I am really not liking the stretching videos but I am doing them for those 10 points. I have 2 days done. I also logged those calories yesterday. I am feeling good today.3
-
Whew sumo's are done and I'm feeling it!2
