Only in my imagination! But hey... I am always ready for a challenge.

@MissionEnforcer water challenge completed! Cardio drumming/videos completed. We pretty much used all the pvc patio furniture to beat on. The three year old niece thought it was fun too, but she kept warning us that we were being loud and great poppa was going to get mad.
Made it safely to Florida, heading out to pick up race packets and scope out the beach portion of the course tomorrow morning. One sister arrived today, the other is coming over from the west coast tomorrow, the fourth lives here all the time. Prerace pasta and protein dinner is on for tomorrow evening. I'm sure someone will take pictures Sunday and I'll post them here!
I'll carry all of your good wishes along with me. Strangely it seems everyone else has doubts about being ready this year too. I'm just going to plow forward and see how it goes!5 -

Hi all happy weekend
I had to read a lot but I always love it ....nice with a cup of thea on the couch and look what my team 1 friends had done that day.
I must tell you I am so glad to be a part of this team it is always fun and now and than a serious note about things in life that is also neccesary so you get to know eachother better and better.
@vowder keep up big guy don't worry to much about the scale look at your first week workouts again it is amazing and I see you have your own "girl team" to encourage you
@ka I hope with you not to much dance
@celtikgirl have a great family time enjoy every minute of it
We all come back on track and hopefully we get our position 1 back from the summer challenge but I see the teams are more equal than the summer challenge holy moly there are a few hard members out there it is almost hard to believe if they are human.
at least a giggle to make a smile on all your faces
A woman announces to her friend that she is getting married for the fourth time. "How wonderful! But I hope you don't mind me asking what happened to your first husband?" "He ate poisonous mushrooms and died." "Oh, how tragic! What about your second husband?" "He ate poisonous mushrooms too and died." "Oh, how terrible! I'm almost afraid to ask you about your third husband." "He died of a broken neck." "A broken neck?" "He wouldn't eat the mushrooms."

Hhmmm what are we going to be doing this weekend?? I'm in for horseback riding and then maybe the water park and spa?? Can we meet at the revolving dome restaurant?? Looks like it would be interesting. @Vowder just in case you couldn't handle the 3 ladies posted earlier I found 1 lady that wouldn't give you a heartattack. Less is more! Hahaha
Hope everyone enjoys their weekend. We're doing a great job being a team!! Let's keep this spirit going!!!2 -

Stopping by from Team Five to offer some encouragement for everyone!
So I was doing my Saturday morning kpop fangirl thing when I came across this YouTube video of 40 toughest kpop dances (fan made, so my opinion was different).
https://youtu.be/59fwEoHmX5I
Some of the dancers look like they're weightless at how fast they move their feet.
I read an article about the rigorous kpop training industry. If you notice in interviews, the idols are very humble and grateful that they get to do their passion. And this is why:
In Korea, musicians are not 'discovered' like they are around the world. They first audition as a young teen, even so far as 12 years old for one member from BigBang.
Once they pass the audition, they sign with a label as a 'trainee'. They then practice relentlessly dancing, singing, and acting for an average of 2-5 years before they're even allowed to debut. One member of Beast spent 7 years before his debut.
They can be cut at anytime, perform weekly for the president of the label, and are criticized constantly to weed out the 'weaklings'. The emotionally strong and determined continue to train until finally being allowed a debut.
They leave their families at an early age and move to Seoul to pursue their dreams.
After reading about how hard an entire group of people will work to obtain their dream, and even knowing over 72% will never even debut in their life, what are you going to do today to achieve your goals?
Nothing is unobtainable in life. You want to be a king? Form a monarchy.
You want to play soccer in England? Start dribbling a ball at the park.
Make a goal, form a plan, find your passion, and do it.
Have a great day everyone.0 -
Thank you for the link @katharmonic!
There is so much to do and see today I feel like a kid in a candy shop!
First, I want to pet some ponies:
Then visit a couple of waterfalls:
And of course, I have to see a volcano!
And snowmobiling across a glacier is on the list!
@mamaelf2008, your revolving restaurant looks divine! Let's celebrate a 100% challenge completion there tonight! @Vowder, you may only bring one of the three, unless we each get a "guide" too! 2 -
@celtikgirl Good luck with your race! I am soooooooooooo jealous
Yes, no half marathon for me tomorrow. However, I did test out the spin bike after lifting yesterday, and I'm optimistic about being able to add in a couple of spin classes in this coming week. I'm going to try to get to the pool today, but trying to match up my schedule with the pool lap hours schedule is tricky. It's so much easier (i.e. convenient) to just put on my running clothes and go outside.
I've got challenge 1 and 2 done. Sorry, but I haven't done well with the water challenge. Since losing weight, coffee has been my go to when I get food cravings. And with the stress of not being able to fully workout these last couple of weeks, I've been drinking A LOT of coffee. It's just how I'm getting through this right now.
I've been trying to help @tonilogan , I really have. But if she hasn't checked in by tomorrow, I would suggest replacing her with someone from the wait list. There's only so much I can do.3 -
I'm doing this! Did I miss something? The only thing I couldn't do is the spreadsheet and. The pic is helping with that2

Yay, you found the Team Thread! Welcome!I'm doing this! Did I miss something? The only thing I couldn't do is the spreadsheet and. The pic is helping with that
On this thread, tag @MissionEnforcer, and write a brief description of where you live. That will be 10 points for Challenge #1!
For Challenge #2: Do all four videos in the "Racing to Reyjavik" three times each. Put your 10 points on the spreadsheet. Modify the videos as necessary depending on your equipment. Get creative!
To get on the spreadsheet (in order to add your exercise minutes/miles and challenge points: either go through the link under "The Amazing Race Spreadsheet" (under Announcements) on a desktop/laptop. If you are using an Android phone, you'll have to download Google Sheets from the PlayStore Apps (it's free). OR, if you are using an Apple, message @MissionEnforcer with your gmail address.
Hope this helps! 0 -
