    Hello there. Lauranne (pron.: laur-ann) here. Thank you D for setting this challenge up it's the perfect way yo start off the warm weather and Spring. I joined this challenge because I started noticing how laaaaazzzyyy I was getting. This is the exact motivation I was looking for. I live on a ranch in East TX., and have found some great new ways to be active. For example, today I ranch biked instead of mountain biking. The weather was great and I saw beautiful country, plus burned 600+ calories in the process.

    Although I don't go to town everyday (25 miles away) one little activity trick I like to do is park as far away from my destination. I feel better knowing I had to take a little trek to get to the door. *Make sure your still in a safe area**

    Good evening, everyone! Day one of challenge down!! Some have already posted how they did, and I'm hoping it went well for everyone. Don't forget, your goal for the week is 1800 calories torched... so even if you didn't get it in today, you have time to make it up. In addition, our mini-challenge for tomorrow is to exercise for at least 60 minutes.

    I did well today - got in 307 calories and 40 minutes... so, ahead for the week so far if we average 258 calories burned a day.

    Tomorrow promises to be a bear of a day. Up early to walk my two pups, then a full day at the office, then I'm hoping for a strength training hour in the evening. Should make for a restful night sleep.

    And a few personal comments:
    - dcberg - YAY for getting on the ice! Awesome! You're going to blow us all away!
    - Jessesgirl - GREAT burn today, especially with the crummy weather!
    - l3xii - you got this!!! You can get a jump tomorrow!
    -RedMax - as always, you put us to shame! Keep it up!!!!
    - And to my collective SAHMs: You all make me laugh, thank you!!

    Bring it tomorrow!! 60 minutes bonus challenge is optional, but make sure to start your burn!

    Happy Monday! I like the mini challenge! 60 minutes will equal an even greater calorie burn! My goal for this week is to meet the 1800 calorie burn goal, complete any and all mini challenges, and drink my recommended water every single day this week. I slacked last week with my water intake and can definitely tell the difference. I feel sluggish. Good luck to every one!
