    Snowstorm Stella hit here today as well! I think we've gotten about 13 inches, with the possibility of a couple more overnight. I had hoped for a pre-blizzard run this morning, but the storm snuck in sooner than expected.
    I haven't decided what challenges to do yet this week - will wait until I know how many miles I can get in tomorrow. But I can guarantee it won't be dancing! Maybe I'll start counting stairs, just in case.
    @120maggie I am both shocked and relieved @hawkins410 did not torture us with Irish step dancing!!!!! Must be my lucky week!

    Challenge 2 completed:

    I chose the Recovery Day Routine from last week in Jamaica because I felt really sore from my run workout and tromping through the snow earlier today. It felt really good to stretch, especially my calves. And I just love the beginning with twisting and flailing the arms. I feel like a little kid when I do that.

    Challenge #3 completed:

    I had:
    spinach - twice, once in a smoothie and tonight in a spinach, chicken, and mushroom lasagna that I made (tried a new recipe and it turned out pretty well!).
    avocado - twice, once on my taco plate and today in an egg, bacon, avocado and cheese sandwich
    brussel sprouts - roasted with taco seasoning and eaten with taco meat
    baby lettuce mix - big side salad tonight with my lasagna

    And I have leftovers of all of that so I will be eating green all week.

    Challenge #1
    Week 4 Thailand.
    Kickboxing
    I like how quickly the cardio session goes by and that kickboxing works my trouble spots. abs and flabby arms.
    (Also for the fun of it I did the Jamaican week 7 video)

    CHALLENGE #3
    This should make @MissionEnforcer happy
    So far I have eaten many green foods this week. More than the required five and I am just starting for the week.

    Yesterday I had several different leafy greens in my salad. Plus I had wasabi for my seared tuna.

    Today I had six green things.
    • For Breakfast I had a fruit salad which included two GREEN things - Kiwi and Thompson Grapes.

    • For lunch I stole a little of my husbands left over scallop and shrimp pasta. The toppings included Artichoke. No picture of that.
    • This evening I made the Jamaican Curry Chicken. It had scallions in the vegetable; also included many of those Jamaican spices from last week. We also had Lime cilantro rice. (We'll keep these recipies.)

    Looking forward to fitting more green things in. In the house I've still got spinach, cucumbers, zucchini, peas, green beans, celery, bell peppers and alfalfa sprouts.

    And that old container of sour cream is looking a little green..... :o

    Challenge #2
    Sabai (Relax!) Your feet! -
    Tuk Tuk to Thailand. I chose this challenge because standing on your feet all day and with workouts by the end of the day I need time to relax my feet. At night before I go to bed I give myself a little treat massaging my feet which makes me feel good and relaxed.

    Did 5K today, but I am not sure what challenge I am going to apply it to yet. I don't know what my second challenge pick will be. The foot massage is appealing.

    CHALLENGE #1 Week 6

    “FROSTBITE FOOTRACE OR IDITAROD?” Option #3

    I did 12+ miles indoors on the treadmill. The reason I did this particular one is that I'm sick and it's one of the few things that doesn't make me dizzy or more congested. I really prefer being outside, but that is just not happening until maybe this weekend. I'm hoping for great things.

    Challenge #3

    I ate 4 different green fruits/veggies: kiwi, spinach, raw cabbage (in my Asian salad), and green grapes. And broccoli. I forgot to include the broccoli.

    If ever there was a week to max out points and complete all challenges, this is it! I've lurked some of the other teams and I think there may be some point holding back until Sunday in an attempt to sneak attack and up their points all at once. If you're the top dog then there's no reason to hide it. Let's proudly post our points team!

    I hope the lurking is not a problem.

    Challenge #3

    I have eaten spinach, lettuce, green onion, sugar snap peas and cucumber every day this week so that is at least a portion of each! ( but likely much more!)

    Challenge #2
    I chose "RANDONNEE ON REUNION" 5k from week number two. I chose this because I hate exercise videos, and it was the only challenge #2 that was not a video. Plus, as I'm sure everyone knows by know, I enjoy running. And I always run outside.
  • ka97

    4 mile run and a kickboxing class tonight. I may use the kickboxing class for my challenge #1, depending on what the weather has in store for us. At the moment my plan is to do the iditarod (10.5+miles) on Sunday, but there could be more snow on the way. Too soon to tell right now. I don't mind the cold, but I've had enough of the snow already.
    Challenges 2 and 3 are done and posted, and will update the spreadsheet shortly.

    CHALLENGE #2 from Week 2: “RANDONNEE ON RÉUNION!”

    I walked at the zoo today for over 5 miles. I chose this challenge because it is Spring Break for me and the kids, and we have been spending a lot of time outside. It's been nice (91 degrees today).

    This is more fun than I thought.
