Since there are so many Jens/Jennifers, just call me Jenilla. It's my username, why not use it?0

Team 2!!!! So glad to be back for a second go at this and I'm thrilled to see so many familiar names and excited we are mixing things up with some new team members.
I'm Kim, I live in Colorado. In the past year I've lost about 50 pounds, completed my first 1/2 marathon and hiked my first 14er. Recently I've gained about 15 of those 50 pounds back and have found I've slipped back into some old, bad habits. I look forward to re-committing to this group and myself. I find that week to week challenges (like this one) along with longer term fitness goals (i.e. 1/2 marathon) help me stay on track with my health and fitness goals.
I have a passion for travel and I enjoyed this challenge over the summer. I found myself inspired by people on this team. We have a terrific team lead, lbenson2006 and I expect we are the Team 2 Beat (love that team name).2 -
Welcome back Colorado Jen and Colorado Kim!! Glad you both have rejoined the group! I can't wait to see where our first destination is to!0

It has been wisely suggested that each team have a co-captain. I am pleased to announce that Tami, @murdog3t, has agreed to be ours! Turns out she has some experience with all this captaining stuff, so where ever I fail, she will step in and keep us going in the right direction!! Lol. Thanks so much Tami!!6

Hi Team 2. Just getting in from visiting my son and daughter in CT. I'm Lynn, an RN living 30" north of Boston in a quiet beautiful suburb....and apparently, at 56 years young, the oldest of this crew...but, hey, if the shoe fits, wear it! I think I've also heard that Age is just a Number. I'm excited to be on this team, sounds like great competitors and enthusiasm. And I happen to be going to Washington this week, what a coinkeedink. Can't wait for midnight...arrre youuuu ready to rrrrrumbllllllle!?4

Hi my name is Kimberly, I live in Austin, Texas. I'm 31 years old and I work as an Assistant Director of Athletics for the local school district. I am married and have two children: 2 and 4. Since leaving coaching and starting to sit at a desk all day I've noticed my weight creep up. I currently workout 3-4 times a week with camp gladiator. Looking forward to the challenge. I will check in tomorrow AM.3

Welcome Lynn and Kimberly. Funny we have duplicate Kim's, Jen's, and even Rhodesian Riddgebacks!! Lol! Don't think I'll make it another 1/2 hr to see the destination but will check in the morning, or more than likely sometime through the night when one of the dogs wakes to go outside. Have a good night everyone!1
-
So if some of us are night owls and go to a 24-hr gym in the dead of night, we can just go ahead and get started at midnight? Woo-hoo!2

@sabreena86 - make your introduction here!0

@lbenson2006 you will be a great team captain. I agree, communication with the team is one of the most helpful in keeping us successful. Can you list some of the more weird activities that can count for our milage minutes?
Sorry Jen, I forgot to address this...& you even tagged me. Lol. I will try to think about it and get back to you guys on it tomorrow. I need to get back to bed so I can get up in a little over 4.5 hrs now to work out.1 -
Week one posting is up as are the spreadsheets. Please look at the posting and I will work on summarizing the mini challenges here tomorrow.3

I am located in Scottsdale, AZ. Dry, warm, and beautiful. The desert mountains are breathtaking. @MissionEnforcer

@MissionEnforcer I'm in Southern California. We have a nice, mild climate with year-round access to outdoor adventure. That's a good thing, because I can't handle the cold. But I will take one for the team and suck it up for Reykjavik. (I'll be soaking in the hot springs if you need me.)

ok team we are up and running - 25 min walk before breakfast logged!!! so given that I am the first one to log anything we are in the lead!!!! lol!!! so don't let me down guys - let's stay there!!!!
@MissionEnforcer - I live in a small village in South West Wales UK - it is a beautiful part of the world. It's very rural, and I rent the fields below my house where I keep my 3 girls - pics attached. It's very hilly here which makes my walks rather challenging, it also rains a lot, which again adds a whole new dimension to the walks lol!!! We have some beautiful coastline here - the other pic I have put up was taken last weekend when a group of us went out for lunch and went to have a look at the sea - stunning!!!

I am very excited about this challenge!!! Happy to see some friends here and ready to make new ones. I believe that people should build each other up not tear each other down.
@MissionEnforcer I already introduced myself, does this still count?1 -
@lbenson2006 Have you heard from @Aprilstar480 or @motivatedsister ,they are the only 2 not to respond to my friend requests (except for jenilla1-who would like to be exempt). I resent the requests. Thanks0

I have heard from both and they have expressed that they are still in it. I hope to see their introductions in here soon.
In regards to the friending people per the challenge, please make sure you send the request twice (I think we should do this even on Jenilla's even though we know that she is exempt from this piece of it - sorry Jenilla...I just want to make sure we cover our bases...that Mission Enforcer is a stickler! ) and upon not receiving confirmation, please send me a message through MFP and not in here so that I can keep track and report back to Mission Enforcer. Thanks!3 -
Welcome to the team, Sabreen. So glad to have you! Should you have any questions about how this all works, please feel free to message me or ask the question here. We have several past members who have been through this at least once.2
