Almost half way!!!! Way to go everyone!

Hi Everyone
I feel horrible that I didn't make my goal. I have two huge events, and a contract job plus helping my husband get ready for a craft show. My house and my workouts have suffered for sure. I did well at the beginning of the week but it feel apart quickly. I was just under 2000 cals burned. I will try and push myself harder next week but am afraid with the time involved I'm going to have a hard time. I am going to wear my HRM and see and will see if I can find a pedometer to use, as the event spans 4 parks in two city blocks so I'm going to be curious to see what I burn doing that.

You are all pushing so hard and logging such great success. Keep it up. It's awesome!

Have a great week.

I am really burnt out this week and it has me frustrated. My daughter and grandson got here for Easter weekend, last night, so over the last three days I have also done three hours of carpet cleaning, washing dogs, striping beds and washing sheets/comforters, a lot of extra cooking, grocery shopping, and tons of other cleaning. I think all of the extra stuff has really burned me out. Plus, today, it is snowing/raining, AGAIN, and it has been dark outside all day long. BUT, I have kept PUSHING MYSELF to get in my workouts and to feel good about it.

Happy Easter, one and all! 65 and beautiful here for us today! Can you believe, everyone, that the end of week 3 is here, and that we are half way through out challenge??? WOW

You have all had another fantastic week, and a fantastic three weeks so far. What a great commitment you have all made and are following through on, even if you don't quite make the goals/requirements. Being here, being committed to the challenge, and working it to the best of your ability every day is just great.

I look forward to the rest of everyone reporting in today.

Let's have a strong finish to our last half of this challenge! Way to go, keep it up!

Happy Easter everyone!

I have decided that mother nature must know my schedule and decides to only give nice days when I am completely unable to get out and ride...today would have been perfect to ride but I was stuck with family. Saturday was cool and windy so I did not get nearly enough time in on my bike. Thankfully this challenge does not track our food, as I really enjoyed the big Easter dinner.

Saturday
125 minutes-cycling. I had hoped to get 4 hours in but after 2 hours, I was freezing and called it a day. Rode just over 25 miles so I am well off my pace.

Sunday
23 minutes-running (which is shocking as I never run)
18 minutes-walking

Not sure on my water for either day....sorry. I drank a lot on Saturday with the riding but no so much today. Will try to improve that for next week.

Total for the week: 791 minutes and 135 minutes of that was strength training. According to MFP, that burned 6885 calories. I have been really bad about wearing my HRM (or starting it)

Hope everyone has a great week!
