    @MissionEnforcer My name is Kim and I live in a small city in Wisconsin. The fall here is as beautiful as Iceland :) We are going on a road trip today to view some of the backroads and find some new trails to hike. Maybe add pic later.

    @MissionEnforcer I've done all the drumming videos and introduction video 3 times. I'm sweating and wore out. I'm keeping my ''drums" set up for more fun in the coming weeks. Let me know if I'm tagging you correctly , thanks, Kim

    The new challenges look like great fun!. Although I have already introduced myself, I will do another quick one for the challenge. I want to get those points!

    @MissionEnforcer Jennifer, Colorado Just below the foothills. Lucky me. :) 39 mom of 3, Work full time in a desk job. Ugh

    I have so many challenges going on this time, but it is really cool that a lot of them coincide with them, so it isn't too much more work.

    Hey there! I'm Kasi, sorry for the late introduction. I'm a bartender and the weekends are pretty busy for me ;) I joined this team later in the challenge last season and I'm glad to be back again. I'm 36 years old, married with 4 kids and a grandbaby on the way!!! I live in Salem Oregon. I absolutely love it here. We are so close to the beach and the mountains with tons of gorgeous lakes and rivers in between. Words just don't do it justice so I'll share a few pictures...

    I got married on this beach in Pacific City!

    These are the kids! This picture was taken in Sunriver during our annual winter vacation.

    We spend a lot of time at Detroit Lake. The first picture is at our favorite swimming hole on the upper arm of Breitenbush river. The second is of my dog Deuce at our camp spot!

    I have sent friend request to everyone and have received all back but 2! So excited to see everyone checking in. I am adding my 10 points for the first challenge. I will resend invites towards the end of the week. If I haven't gotten acceptance (minus Jen) . I did 35 minutes of walking on my lunch and plan on doing another 30-90 minutes tonight.

    Do I need to send invites if I have already accepted all the invites I've gotten?

    Did 4 miles of walking on my disaster of a field trip (rain? Really so cal? On the one day I take 80 kids to the beach?).

    @MissionEnforcer I live in so cal and tried to take my students to Dana point and aliso creek today. We ended up at oso creek trail (bet you know where I am talking about

    Late to the party! A long hectic weekend and still recovering lol. I'm from Texas, 33, no kids, and love to travel. I just got back and should stay out for the challenge duration.

    Headed to the gym after no working out the entire weekend...it'll be brutal. I've accepted all the requests I've received, definitely don't think it was 21 so will go back and send invites for anyone else on the team I haven't gotten. Will check in later.

    ABOUT CHALLENGE #1:Make sure all of the requirements have been met. All Teams have 21 players; some probably haven't shown up yet. Trying to "friend" them twice means over the period of the week, not the same day and not before the game started (which is today, Monday). There is no need to send a request to anyone who is already a "friend".

    The purpose of this challenge is to start bonding as a team, get to know all of your team members and to get comfortable posting on your team’s thread. Until I can verify that everyone who's going to show up has done so, and enough time has passed to realistically establish those connections, points claimed for this challenge will not be verified. Unverified Points show up as "Red" until accepted. Once accepted they will turn "Black" and the points will appear in the "Totals" column.

    Your post should be made on your particular team’s thread and needs to have @MissionEnforcer appear somewhere within that post (tagging). In this case just stick @MissionEnforcer (no spaces) by itself at the top of your post, or use it in a sentence (uh...maybe not). It doesn't show up as an E-Mail, but instead as a notification on my site.

    NOTE: THIS POST IS NOT INTENDED TO BE DIRECTED TOWARD ANYONE PERSONALLY, AND IS BEING PLACED ON ALL TEAM THREADS. No puppies were harmed by the writing of this post!

    Hi Team 2. My name is Lynn, I'm 56 years young, and appears so far I believe I'm the oldest on our team.
    But hey, If the shoe fits....although I've also heard Age is just a number.

    Oops, cont. I've been married for 29 years, have two amazing children, a daughter 28 and a son 26, who both live in CT at this time.
    I live 20" north of Boston in a quaint old town that I grew up in.
    My first challenge ever was the Spring Amazing Race and I loved it
    The enthusiasm on Team 2 is contagious and I'm ready to do my part.
    Happy healthy challenge to everyone!

    My day off work today so trying to get extra exercise minutes in today. 140 minutes so far with all the drum videos exercised with 3 times and 6.2 miles of walking tracked on my fitbit. Stopped at a couple parks on our road trip today to get some hiking in. Sweat during the walks as it was 78 degrees F which is unusual for October in Wisconsin. Going to get more minutes in while watching the Voice tonight.uzt6r4f848d1.jpg
    Here's a picture of Wisconsin Beauty in the fall.

    Hi again everyone! My name is Gretchen and I am 25 years old. I just got married in July and live with my husband and two cats in a beautiful town in PA. I am a learning support teacher and a swim coach as well as a grad student. I'm excited to be a part of this group! I have friend requested everyone who did not friend request me. I am glad to begin the week with a strong start as I will be traveling to Disney later this week :smile:

    Bri here, checking in for the day, Beautiful normally Southern California decided it wanted to give in to mother nature a bit today. Woke up to some rain, loved it!! Not able to get any workouts in today due to Drs visits. But tomorrow i am all over it. However i did complete the water portion completed, that wont be an issue for me ever!

    Sorry guys, feel like I totally failed as captain today. I was hoping to get in here more and dole out some pearls of wisdom...that didn't happen...lol. Had a busy day at work, came home and had a few things to do before eating dinner, including a little exercise with the husband!! Since dinner, I have been trying to watch Dancing With the Stars (and not exercising during like energyseeker).
    Please refer back to Mission Enforcer's post about what all is required to get the bonus points for challenge 1.

    I did do a little calculating, and with 21 members this week, each of us only needs to do just under 54 minutes of exercise 5 out of 7 days. If you are a daily exerciser, it would be just over 38 minutes. There will be people who do more also, so if you have a reason you need to take it easy on a particular day, please do not feel like you have to put your health in jeopardy or anything.

    Also, please remember to add your exercise minutes to the spreadsheet on a daily basis if you can. Please enter a 0 on a day that you have nothing just so that we know that day is complete for you. If you have troubles posting on the spreadsheet, you can message me or ask on the team thread for someone to add it for you.

    I have had all friend requests accepted from all but Jenilla so please make sure you have all of them as well. We should hopefully be able to start counting those bonus points soon, I hope. BTW, loving all the pics!!

    How do we document our water intake? Do we just post it here in the thread? Should we tag @MissionEnforcer too? I want to make sure we get the credit. o:)

    67.5 required oz., consumed 72.0 oz. (Will do much more on days that I run!)

    On the water challenge, you do not have to post it in here or tag Mission Enforcer. However, posting in here might be a great reminder and/or be a motivator to others, so it can't hurt. On that note, I did hit my goal of water for the day. Goal is about 65 Oz and I drank over 80 Oz. :)
