    Welcome @ejdp254 @junodog1 @MimiOfTheLusciousLawn @smile_laughter

    And we are off! I have the easiest job as team captain because everyone is so awesome! You all are so strong, especially on the thread:

    We have the morning jokes and sunshine from our Belgium connection @Wolvinnetje,
    Motivational sayings from @Tamijo1004. Insightful postings from @Leolivingbydesign. @Ingrid2017 and @Katharmonic keep us amused with the doings of Fluffy and Stella . @Mts7471 and @Aenglehardt347 keep us moving towards our final goals. @AlethaMary stays so positive and helps us appreciate our good health. Then there is that male point of view from @vowder!!!

    @KA97 awes us with her high wire aerobatics, and @GSXRGIRL61 with her consistent big numbers.
    We have travel logs from @cardbuckfan. An insiders view of the “Northpole” madness from @Mamaelf2008 and her 5k challenges. @mswanger09, last minute consistently and a little “diversity” as a cat person! We hope @celtikgirl will be back with us soon from the Caribbean!
    AND then there is @Hawkins 410!!! Talk about the true strength (and dancing toes) behind the team.

    What’s our new goal? All the challenges! ---- All of us. Every week, Every challenge. In the Fall race we would have outright won the race. --- no tie--- If someone had completed just one more challenge during the course of the race. Just one more!!! SO any given week that you really don’t feel the urge to dance, squat, step, pump, or eat something new, just remember that could make or break our victory!! DO IT for yourself and the team!

    You inspired me! I cannot wait to start!!!!

    Hi All!!! Had to check in and wish all of you an AMAZING first two weeks! It will take me hours to get caught up when I get back, and I will be sad that I missed stuff, but I know you all will do great.

    I'm taking Vowder's advice and going all stairs, all cruise... except maybe the first trip up with the 200 pound suitcase that is sitting by the door... but after that, no elevators!

    Have a great race!

    Enjoy your cruise. Jealous.

    They bring your suitcase to your room. You are ok there. On the first day, the elevators are packed, you will not want to use them then. The problem is taking the suitcases out of your room at the END of the cruise if you need to disembark early. Where are leaving from and where are you going?

    How's everyone!!!!

    I am glad to be back!! I have slipped back into my ugly bad habits and have been struggling to break them. Grrrrrrrrr! Just when I make the decision that the exercising is going to start back up again, I get knocked on my butt with a really nasty cold! This thing has been hanging out for a week now. Not cool! So, sadly I think my numbers might be a little low this week. Did I mention not cool?

    My intro:

    Name: Melissa

    Favorite exercise: Zumba. Need to figure out a way to start and finish C25K-I enjoy running but have to get myself to stay with it in the winter. And I also enjoy 90 day workout programs. I did Jillian Michael's Body Revolution last spring and I loved it. I have her body Shred as well as Insanity max 30.

    From: Reading, about 50 miles east of Philadelphia. We have few celebrities from the area. Example, author John Updike author of the Rabbit books. I have them all, just haven't read them yet. Married with 4 fur babies-all cats! Smeagol, Daphne, Smoke and Mittens.

    GOOD MORNING everybody!! Wow we are so on it!! @Ingrid2017 Love the Fluffy pic!!! and your new profile pic. @MimiOfTheLusciousLawn I think some more of us can relate to your house decor! @ejdp254 Our black lab is 6 and getting out of the total craziness --- thank goodness. @mswanger09 take care of the cold, but SOOO glad you are back!

    1. Jodi (maggie is the black lab
    2. Love to cycle in the summer, cross country and downhill ski in the winter (this season I've been out about 5 times cc, no downhill yet. The weather really sucks this year for winter summers. Temperatures up and down and up and down. I regularly do workout DVD's Zumba, Jillian Michaels, Turbo Jam and a bunch of oldies.
    3. Born in Utica, NY -- think dairy farms, not NY city. Live in small town America in Chardon Ohio
    4. My husband and I have lived the last 27 years in a small town 35 miles east of Cleveland. We walk up to the town square for the library and coffee shops, post office, theater. We also enjoy the proximity to Cleveland for big city sports, shopping, restaurants, museums. I work 13 miles from home in the heart of an Amish community. Have to pass buggies and wagons everyday in the commute. Headed there now! Have a great day everybody!
