    Just in case I forgot (which clearly I did) - This weeks challenge has a minimum 220 min Cardio, 90 Min Strength and whatever punishment the winning team has come up with.

    HOWEVER!!!!! Since its the last week of the challenge I dont want to see minimums from anyone! I want you all to push as hard as you can and turn in some crazy numbers!!!! Team Carol is trying to see if they can get 800 cardio min - Can you? Are you up for the challenge of pushing yourselves to the breaking point and then realizing you survived?!

    Good Luck this week Walkers!!!!!!

    Dont forget to turn in the results of your goals along with your challenge totals at the end of the week.

    800 mins??????? That's 13 hours!!!!! Do they work???? LOL I'd love to see people complete that. Holy moly, very impressive and ambitious goal! :)

    I watched the final episode last night. I was kind of disappointed. It wasn't as exciting as I thought it was going to be, and they left a lot of loose strings. Where the heck is Beth?!?!? LOl Anxious for October! :)

    lol - yes we all work, thats kinda the point. Remember not all exercise seems like exercise. Gardening, furniture moving, housekeeping - its all exercise. Heck, dance around your livingroom for 30 min just releasing stress and having fun.

    I hated that there were unresolved issues in the season finale, but it just made me more anxious for October to get those questions answered. I think Carol may have to save the group next fall. She is just badass that way.

    I guess I was thinking along the same line Amy - only counting my actual time out running or at the gym in my totals - and I was trying to figure out the same thing considering I'm working 8 hours a day and I have almost an hour commute each way. If I do my run every day at lunch and I go every day after work and do an hour run - I could possibly get real close.

    Yes I thought it ended way to unresolved too - but I think they wanted to keep us in antcipation for the next season - which I am!

    Oh and about the fitspiration thread -- how do I load a picture on a forum post? I have never figured that out.

    Tyreese ad Sasha have decided that punishment should be 20 leg throws twice this week.

    Here's a link

    If you upload it to photobucket first, photobucket will give you an image link to copy over. You just have to change the IMG in the brackets to img.

    Photobucket will give you something like this.

    Same here. When I do these challenges, I try to only count the workouts that I FEEL are challenging and working my muscles.. running, yoga, lifting, etc..actual workouts. I guess we forget that other activities are calorie burners. I just feel like if it's too easy then I'm cheating myself. Lol Maybe that's why I've had such a hard time with totals. I only count my time at the gym or with dvd videos. But Yeah, I was trying to average out 800 mins between 6 days, and that's over 2 hours a day of physical activity. Wew! Ambitious, I like it!!!!!! Lol :)

    Its Tuesday and I have 210 in cardio already and 60 in strength. I have pushed myself hard the last three days and I was so sore everytime I got up from my desk at work that I felt it. So I decided to take tonight and relax. I took a nice hot bath and now I'm having a glass of wine. I will have a new workout partner tomorrow night for my weight lifting so I'll have her help me with the challenge - love that its an ab workout though.

    So I'll rest tonight and hit it hard again for the next 4 days!

    I am going to do my best to get in the totals. So far I have 95 in strength and 30 in cardio. I have strength again tonight. It is very hard to do so much cardio when my main focus is lifting. However, I am going to the mountains tomorrow with my family so there will be lots of hiking. I should be able to get it all in no problem.

    Since there is no cell access where I am going, can I send my totals Sunday morning?

    If you find you cant send them early then I dont see a problem with you sending them sunday. I can hold off on final results until you can message me.

    Yea - I figured out the picture thing so I'm going to do my fitspiration this afternoon - after I go do my hour long run!

    Ok my fitspiration is done! I am at 330 for cardio and 105 for strength, and I have two more sets of the leg throw to do (which I will do tonight).

    I plan on doing another 40 min cardio tonight and 30 min of strength, tomorrow another 45 at lunch of cardio and 15 of strength and then another 60 min or so on Sat of cardio and another 30 min. of strength so my totals should be 475 of cardio and 180 of strength. Wow to those on Team Carol who hit 800 - you must be tired! I've really put a lot of effort into my workouts this week and I don't see how I could get that many minutes. So TJ, if anyone needs me to donate some minutes to them - feel free to distribute to who needs them. I will of course, post my final totals on Saturday.

    Ok hit my totals as I anticipated -- 475 of cardio and 180 of strength. I finished the punishment challenges and stayed within my deficit all week. I have definitely improved my stamina in my runs and I have lost done inches which I can tell by the way my clothes fit. I gave enjoyed the challenge and it definitely has kept me active and focused.

    Well - Team Walker Horde - its been fun!!!

    Most of you started out as Team Lizzie and Mika, who started the challenge with 6 teammates. You lost 3 and gained 2 when you dies a horribly sad death and became walkers, so you ended the challenge with 5 players. Impressive!!!

    I have decided not to choose an MVP for the last week because I think anyone that makes it to the end is definately an MVP and you all deserve to share that honor!!!!

    Overall Team winner has not been decided yet, I still need to review goals and all the weekly totals.

    I hope each of you will be back for the next challenge and that you will continue to check in with all your teammates and the rest of the challenge survivors from other teams!!!

    Hi Everyone! I made one more thread here for us to chat, plan, and have mini challenges:
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1245111-after-dead-chat
    As most of you know, we will be doing this again for Season 5 and I hope you will all join us then and in the meantime, we will keep this group open. We're still crunching numbers, so it might be tonight final MVP's and last week's winning team and the overall winning team is announced.
