    Do we have a specific team name for each team and are there captains for each team? If so who is the captain of my team.

    Just did the mini challenge, it wasn't too bad, completed Bushmen & Tabata, definitely tough! Good on water and calories. Does anyone know if someone is working on one of those signature badges for the Wappo Warriors???

    OK, team 4, I've tried to friend each of you, but I can't find bubblesburst80 on Gary's friend list.

    Gary, perhaps there's a typo?

    If anyone knows bubblesburst80 could you ask them to send me a friend request - I'd like to
    be connected with my teammates so we can help support each other as we take on September.

    Thanks!

    I'm confused about something. Part of the description for the team getting points is to not go over calories for the "6 days". What day is the 7th day? Is it that you can't go over daily, or that you can't go over your total for the entire 6 days?

    You cannot go over your calorie allotment for the 6 days of the challenge. the 7th day is your day of rest. It is up to you if you want to go over your calories that day.

    We are all under the Wappo Warriors umbrella... Gary is captaining all 15 teams and I am helping him co-mod this forum and answering questions to the best of my ability! :drinker:

    Just finished Tabata and the bushmen challenge, I hope no one wants to smack me for this...But I LOVED today's workout, I carry stress in my upper back and neck and this really worked those areas, it almost feels like I've had a massage....Well .... almost :laugh:

    Sorry Gary but I am dropping out cuz it all just seems too confusing with all the stuff I have going on at home here. I wish you all luck and trust me I by no means am balking out on my usual exercises and cardio on my own! Thanks for the invite and message. Perhaps some other time when things are less hectic. God speed everyone!! <3

    So far, I did the swimmer things and walked .6 miles. Not sure I'm going to get the other walking done today. Also, I might not earn 5 points for the team this week as I'll be dealing with funeral stuff because my hubby's granny passed today.
