    I'm glad you're back!! I hadn't counted you out bc you had touched base to let me know you were having Internet problems lately.

    On crunches we are at 2610 .. I wish it were better! We are down 4 more players I haven't heard from them last week ot this week so I'm counting them out & redoing our sheet for next week. I hate to be that way but it'll make us look better. So we are now 14 from the 21 we started with :(

    This wasn't me being mean to anyone so please don't think that. Gary told us that if someone hasn't logged in for a week then take them off the sheet. I emailed the ppl several times to touch base but no replys after I know they read them so please don't think I'm being unfair. Just doing what I'm told as the captain.

    climbers, 10 globe jumps, 10 Squat Kicks, 10 ZigZag Hops! These are a little different. IF YOU ARE ABLE
    AND YOU ARE! Do these consecutively. No stopping to rest, don’t break these into sets! I’ve designed
    this so you can see just how far you’ve come. Many of you would never be able to do all of these in one
    setting on August 1st. BUT YOU’VE Found the inner Beast, You’ve Unleashed you ROCKSTAR and you’ve
    become an EXERCISE MACHINE. I’m proud of you and you should be VERY proud of yourself!

    fast or as slow as you need to! YOU CAN DO IT I PROMISE! At 447lbs I did it in one hour and 15minutes
    with 3 hills. You can do this I promise! PUSH YOURSELF AND PROVE TO YOURSELF YOU ARE A WARRIOR!
    Wednesday - REST BECAUSE THURSDAY ITS GOING TaaaaaRIBALLLLL!!!!!!!!


    Weekly Team Challenge
    4000 team crunches, 4000 Jumping Jacks and 100 extra miles! This equals about 200 per team for
    crunches and jumping jacks for the week along with an extra 5 miles for each team member! The Last
    part of the team weekly challenge is solicit a friend or family member to join MFP and begin the next
    month’s journey with you. Inspire others that’s easy. The retire portion of the week is about looking
    back at the past 30 days. You have had to retire many old habits, many excuses and reasons why not to
    exercise. It’s time to retire those and move forward to the new you! YOU ARE MY INSPIRATIONS! Keep
    it up as we INSPIRE our circle of influence and RETIRE the old ways! Go Inspirations Go!

    Sorry to my team! My husbands health has been up and down, now we are onto heart issues:(

    Since I am out of the challenge I will be here to support in anyway that I can. I wish you all luck! I am starting to log again as of today. I have dropped a pound this week, yay!

    It's good to be (semi) back!
