    Went on a great hike today! Took a break at the half way mark, sat down for a snack.... all I had was chocolate covered almonds... :-( Oh dear... That was one of the longest hikes I've ever went on!

    I chose 5k and walked. It was easy because the kids were already outside on their new trampoline. I just walked my yard/neighborhood like I normally do.

    Nice job getting the challenge complete, we jumped into 3nd. We still have 3 people that haven't reported, if your having problems with the spreadsheet, feel free to message one of us. Plus our team thread is a good place to input your information.

    For lunch today, we're going to our favorite German restaurant. Happy Friday, everyone!

    Hi team, sorry wasn't active much this week. My kids and I got sick. We have flu like symptoms. I managed to walk 1.15 mile outside as part of the first challenge, and planning to do the rest tomorrow. For the third challenge I'm on day 3/5 giving up popcorn. I used to eat it all the time even on breakfast. It's too salty and should not replace meals and causes me discomfort in my tummy. I will do my best to do the second challenge even if I do it in 10 minutes intervals.

    I am sore today from my run last night so I decided to go for a brisk 36 minute walk and get the blood flowing to those muscles. When I went to add these minutes to the spreadsheet, I noticed that we had already made it to Alaska! Way to go, team Six Pack!

    Sorry to hear that you are under the weather, @ghizon. Great job on doing what you can. Just listen to your body and rest when needed.

    SPREADSHEET CHANGE:

    VERIFICATION CHALLENGE POINTS WILL NOW APPEAR AS "GREEN", UNTIL REVIEWED.
    "RED" NUMBERS INDICATE THAT YOUR POST HAS BEEN CHECKED, REJECTED, AND NEEDS TO BE REPOSTED.

    PLEASE READ THE CHALLENGE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY, AND FOLLOW THE EXAMPLES, IF GIVEN.

    Challenge 2 completed. I did the beginners workout, but modified some of the moves as I have twinged my back and have reduced mobility. I have entered the 10 points but if it is felt that it shouldn't be granted I fully understand.

    I had to modify too, I say you can keep it!

    Welcome @mosey1951 We are glad that you are a part of our team. If you have any questions please feel free to ask on this thread, or send me a message. I also sent you a friend invite.


    @GrandmaJackie Happy Birthday.

    Sorry guys it has been crazy at work, trying to catch 2 weeks up, plus keep up with this weeks work. Hopefully, next week I will be able to check in a little more.

    It is great to see everyone getting those challenges on. Double check your challenge points. IF they are RED that means you posted the challenge wrong in the thread. Black means a ok, green waiting for Missionenforcer to verify.

    Tonight I am getting a new puppy! So excited.

    Challenge 1: Complete

    I chose the 10.49 mile Iditarod, because I knew some of it would have to be indoors this week. Mon: 3m Tues: 3m Weds: 3m Thurs: 2.57m I completed with various ways; elliptical, stair stepper, and mostly walking indoors/outdoors. It felt good to stretch my legs this week!

    Challenge 2: Complete

    I completed the Low Impact Workout for Beginners-40 minute total body beginner workout due to not having access to weights the day I wanted to complete this workout. I always enjoy the fitnessblender workouts, so this one felt good as well!

    Hey Sixpack! Super busy this week, sorry haven't been as vocal! Finished the first two challenges today, and will be able to post for challenge three tomorrow after finishing today without soda! It's been rough, I'll admit, but I can tell my body is thanking me for it already. Seeing family this weekend and making sure to pack some of my fitness stuff so I can still get in minutes while at my in-laws. Haven't seen them since Christmas, so hoping that they'll notice a difference in my progress. It's okay if they don't, but not gonna lie that I am hopeful! :smiley:

    Hope you all have a great Sat. and Sun! Don't forget to keep posting those minutes! I'm so proud of us this week!
