    I did today's and tomorrow's challenge
    6 extra miles

    I did most challenges in the morning inside the resort gym but some were also done on the beach at night in front of our room.
    I was only able to do extra miles instead of the other extras while on vacation,
    I actually probably have a lot more miles, but those are miles that I KNOW are calculated since they are miles from walking back and forth to the different resorts that associate with our main resort.
    On two of those days I went on all day hiking tours but I'm not including that milage since I'm not sure how many they were.

    Welp, I have some not so great news. Last week we actively had 10 people (including me) participating. This week, it's pretty much who's posting. I've checked in with members and 500lbs2marathon is helping out, just hasn't been posting. Here's a recap of what we have remaining as of today (Saturday).

    Crunches - 1,700 (85 per day)
    JJ's - 2,280 (114 per day)
    Miles - 41.5 (2.1 per day)

    Just a reminder. We have until the 30th to complete these. This is gonna be rough LOL I think there are 5 of us that are actually committed for the remainder of this challenge. This is TOM speaking (he made his appearance today) WTF!!!!! LOL Anywho, in parenthesis after the numbers above is what us 5 need to bust out together to accomplish this. There is one more person that I'm checking with. But the above numbers represent 5 people. So if this other person is able to help out, that will be great. I just didn't want to put all of my eggs in one basket. Or whatever the saying is LOL

    Have a great weekend you guys. Anyone being affected by Irene?

    Sorry I've been a little MIA. Will bust out the necessary jacks and crunches and will post a recap later. Will see how many miles i can manage while Irene stalks us here in South Jersey. Haven't been feeling so hot (stomach bug? - who the hell knows...). Anywho - Go RHA! Let's do this!

    Feel better Sweets and stay safe. As for the stomach bug, you sure it's not just nerves from the Irene BS? Sorry you're not feeling well. That sucks.

    I don't mind doing extra crunches. It's the jumPing jacks the triple d's don't like, not even with two sports bras on.

    I'm officially back home from my vacation and I was happy with the scale this morning. It's TOM and I figured I might have gained a ton with all the food I ate (I ate mostly at buffets and indulged) but only a few ounces were up.

    OK Team...all in all...I had an awful weekend. So sorry. I did well on my water but I didnt track my calories at all so I dont know where I stand but i know it was over. I didnt get the last day of challenges done this week. I will be on track tomorrow and will kick butt at the JJs and crunches. I hope this weekend didnt mess up my weightloss goals...I just...failed big time.

    Hey Luky could you do another recap of what is left till Wednesday of the Team challenge at the end of today?

    Today is Monday 8/29...remaining for Crunches, JJ's and miles...

    Crunches - 80 per person for today and tomorrow
    JJ's - 152 per person for today and tomorrow
    Miles - 3 per person for today and tomorrow

    Numbers may vary as I believe one person is still doing the challenge and not reporting until the last day and one person pretty much ended the challenge on Saturday for themselves. School starting etc. Which I totally understand. For those who have stuck it out, I think I speak for the remaining team as a whole when I say many thanks to everyone who has stuck it out.

    I can handle the JJs and crunches...the extra miles each day...might be pushing it. Especially since we are already doing a 5k tomorrow...I will give it my best. I can probably get in the 3 miles today or at least close to it

    I would just like to report that 352 JJ's are complete. Of course 200 were for today's challenge. I hate jumping jacks even with two bras the girls try to defy gravity. Challenge is done, still have extra crunches and walk to do. I was just venting about JJ's. I hope those of you in the Sept challenge have team mates that can go the distance.
