    Then I had to pull weeds for half an hour and split wood so I can make a bonfire and sit back and relax with a few beers and wind down from this day. It's 60-65 degrees with a clear sky - perfect bonfire weather!

    I have actually been biking an additional 50min 6 days per week, which I have not logged because I wanted it to be a baseline of activity. I may go back and add it in.....just interesting to keep track of my total burn

    I decided to add in the 50min bikerides I have been doing daily, which I do not log in my exercise diary.
    I want to keep track of my TOTAL cals burned this month in this challenge, not just the cals I log in my exercise diary.
    7 50-min bikerides 2126 cals

    Hi there, Rocky! I can't believe how quickly the new school year rolled around. The twins start preschool next week.
  • Took a Zumba class this morning 431 calories burned leaves me with 270.

    I will take zumba again as it is a good cardio class and fits my schedule - but I have no coordination and luckily can laugh at myself cause I am pretty sure I was super foolish looking - LOL

    Nice work, Paintlisapurple. It's gonna be hard for me to make it this month too. Hang in there! :happy:
  • I took a class today called CSI - it was a cardio step/strength/interval training and it may have been one of the hardest things I have ever done!!! 715 calories burned! I am now 445 calories beyond the 7k goal!!! Wooohooooo!
