    Oh the best laid plans! I have not gotten up early at all this week. My children are out of school, so for the first time in months I am able to sleep in (if you count getting up at 7 sleeping in) and I am taking full advantage.:blushing:

    7 is not sleeping in LOL!

    I've actually been good. I woke up early Monday and Tuesday and worked out. This morning, I decided to sleep the extra 45 minutes instead, but now kind of wish I would have just gotten up. But my 2 for the week are done. I think I'll end up doing a couple more days of early morning workouts just because of how my schedule is this week.

    Wow you already have the two workouts behind you - excellent! More is always better! Great morning burn.

    Finally was able to get a morning workout in today. I burned 931 cals doing Bridge to 10k (Week1 Day1), Jackie Warner Xtreme Time Saver & Strength Training

    That is a serious workout in the morning! Great job!

    Excellent way to get rid of those calories early! I'm still skimping on 2 broken up workouts - hope to catch up this weekend.

    I thought I was doing awesome. Haven't done a morning workout since Tuesday morning though... Still have 2 under my belt for the week and will be doing it again on Saturday, but still. Grr.

    Every effort is great this first full week of April! We still have today and 2 more mornings to fit in some great burns. I managed to finally get a complete workout this morning (Friday). The others ones were so unsatisfactory with me hurting my shoulder blade one day. After my rest day and lots of stretches yesterday I'm back on it!

    @LG61820 - you are always great and consistent and you still got that morning burn. It was super hard for me to get started. We have more weeks to beat our first week!

    GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD Morning, Everyone!

    I did Level 1 Shred this morning. Now I'm trying to decide between 30 minutes of stepper or 40 minutes on the dreadmill?:ohwell:

    I didn't make it up early to work out. I actually sat in bed and argued with myself for 2 full hours about it this morning. :blushing: I did get my workouts in, just much later than I hoped for.

    You are still on it Kate! I will have to get my morning workouts towards the end of the week but excited to get some burns in! On "rest" days today (Wed) and tomorrow (Thurs). Let's do this. We are 67 days away until summer starts!!!

    Sooo how's the April Morning Challenge going??? I see one reported member :happy: I will tally and post tomorrow morning. Let's not lose our momentum now that Spring is here and Summer is fast approaching! I know I still have a mission and that is to increase my days to start with a workout and have it BEHIND me. Oh yeah and also to get to my next mini-goal.

    Hard to believe we are coming into the 3rd week of April! Let's do this. :bigsmile:

    @CricketKate - I know I really struggled getting a decent morning burn. I think I squeezed in 1 this past week. :ohwell:
