    Just spent the entire day (aside from my run) doing lesson plans and paperwork. I'm exhausted. Hopefully this week will be more manageable.

    Well, that was a day. I went to my office and got a little work done, then set out for my long run on campus. Lots of stairs on campus so I decided to combine the run and finishing the challenge. I ran all over the place in a crazy pattern and ran up and down over 600 stairs total, which brought me to over 1950 steps. I stopped counting but there were a few more. I was intending to run for 90 minutes, but with the all the steps I was worn out and had to call it a day at 75 minutes. Not a great pace, unsurprisingly, but covered just over 6 miles. The Inca Trail is done!

    My legs felt like jello, so I also did "yoga for tired legs" a little while ago. Nice stretching for my poor quads and hammies.

    This week was a tough one! I'm looking forward to seeing what's coming for the last week. Can't believe it's been 7 weeks already, I've enjoyed this challenge so much! I hope there are no more stairs though. :)

    I see a lot of squares getting filled in and some awesome total times for the week. You guys are all doing so great! I am always so in awe of those of you getting 1000+ minutes a week. Thank you all for pushing me to do more than I thought I could.

    Hi all, just updated my stuff. Sorry for being MIA. It's the end of the semester and I barely have time to breathe. Got some workouts in though and got my challenges done :-)

    Good morning team one! Looks like Team 5 came out on top for week 7, they turned in a great performance. Great job staying close and still being number one overall! I know this team can pull off an amazing last week.

    Vancouver! This is somewhere I've actually been, and it was fantastic. Looking at all the gorgeous pictures in the challenge thread though, I feel like I didn't see it at all. I was there for a conference and I really should go back. The holiday lights are amazing. I remember having the best sushi of my life there!

    This weeks challenges are so doable! We should all be able to knock those out and pour on the minutes this week. Have a great day!
