    Weekly Goal: 3,500
    Mon: 94 (cleaning)

    Wed: 863 (Power 90 Cardio, Wii EA Sports Active, Walked 2 miles)
    Thur: 325 (Power 90 Sculpt)
    Fri: REST DAY
    Sat: 775 (Power 90 Cardio, Yardwork)
    Sun: 650 (Power 90 Sculpt, Wii EA Sports Active, Wii Just Dance 2)

    Total: 3520

    When will the week 2 challenge be posted? And will it be posted here? I missed last weeks, only saw it thru teammates posts. :sad:

    I would look for it to be posted after all of the announcements are made by the team captains in the main thread. If our captain doesn't copy it to here, I will do it, so that it's hopefully not missed by anyone. Good luck!!

    I've added you to our roster, just be sure and send me an updated weight every Friday and check back here and on the main thread for updates/mini-challenges.

    WOW I just looked at the spreadsheet! us spartans are awesome and i am so glad that I found this challenge and this site! i needed to be made accountable instead of living the "oh well i messed up already today, lets just eat whatever i want for the day and start tomorrow" that clearly doesnt get me anywhere.

    thank you all for just being there!

    I've taken this from the main thread!

    Now -- this week's mini challenge. We had such an overwhelming positive response to the calories burned challenge -- we'd like to keep it. Some of the feed back we got was that 500 was alot to shoot for though. So -- Here's what we revised....we know that time is limited for alot of us. some people can burn 500 calories watching an aerobics video -- others can spend hours trying to acheive that.

    Your challenge -- should you choose to accept it is......

    30 minutes of exercise for at least 6 days a week.
    64 oz of water/day.

    What we'd like to see Friday is....
    How many minutes did you exercise for....
    How many calories did you burn...
    How many oz of water did you drink....

    Was wondering should we have messaged with cals burned for the week? I didn't but i sure can!

    I accept the new challenge! It should be easy after last week's 500 calorie daily burns:tongue:

    It looks like the Spartans are doing really well, based on the updated spreadsheet results. It's kinda hard to tell for sure which team is winning b/c of the different numbers of people on each team..

    Go SPARTANS!!!:bigsmile:

    30 minutes a day 6 days a week - easy
    64oz water - more of a challenge.

    I am one who can workout for 60 minutes going full force & still not get 500 cals, so this is good.

    I have been on a slight hiatus for the past few days and ready to start off fresh today with the new challenge and stick with it. Curveballs that life throws sometimes can come at the most inconvenient time!!!

    Go red team!

    Thanks for posting the challenge here. I just have one question. Friday is only 5 days away - so when should we send the minutes/calories/water to our team leaders? I guess I was confused about this last mini challenge also. We weigh in on Friday...but when does the mini challenge week end?

    I'm not 100% sure kassie, I think the mini challenges are Monday to Monday but that'll have to be confirmed by our boss lady lol

    Thanks for posting! I was just getting ready to post this myself.

    I didn't have anyone send me their calorie burns because I didn't realize I was actually supposed to be tracking that, too, so don't worry about it. :)

    To answer a few questions:

    I didn't realize that I was actually supposed to keep track of all those calories burned, so if you WANT to send me your calories burned, I can total them up and give an update, otherwise, don't worry about it for last week.

    Since the challenges haven't been being posted until Monday, it only makes sense that they would run Monday-Sunday, but weigh-ins are on Friday. I'm not sure on this one either, so I'll check with SommerJo and get back with you.

    You guys and gals are doing awesome!! Keep up the good work!
