    Saw Underworld today. Very disappointed. Came home.
    Wow, what a shame, they're one of my favourite bands and they usually put on an amazing show!

    Well done for getting out for the C25K afterwards, that's real dedication. :smile:

    No, I should have been more clear - I went to see Underworld the movie, lol. I didn't even know there was a band. Darn right I went running! Saturday's are my rest days (since I spike), so I didn't want to make it up today. Feels good to have done it.

    The first two were awesome. The third one was okay. The fourth one, kinda sucked. Premise was good, execution was terrible!

    Gosh, I'm so behind on them! I think I maybe saw the second, but definitely not the others. That's always such a let down when you see the potential being squandered!

    You are so right there. And now that I'm on Pottermore I can enjoy Harry all the time.

    Sorry you are feeling under the weather. I hope that you feel better soon.

    Have a great day LIONS

    Yes, I always feel great after a run, I've been slacking lately thanks for the reminder of how important it is to keep going!

    Just a reminder, here's the Week 3 challenges:

    WEEK 3:
    (Starting after check-in between 4/13-4/16
    and ending with check-in between 4/20-4/23)


    OWL (exercise): Military Presses! http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=WNO0l2jertE

    Each day you reach your daily goal you earn 5 OWLs, you earn 3 OWLs for reaching half way to your goal, and 1 OWL for trying but not reaching half way.

    NEWT (food): Carbs! If you don't already track your carbs, change your settings to track them for just this week and try to stay under MFPs allotment for the day as many days as possible this week.

    5 NEWTs for every day you stay under your carb allotment, 35 NEWTs possible for the week.

    SPEW: Earn 1 point every time you post something encouraging or motivating or how your day is going in the Common Room (ANYTHING BUT A CHECK-IN POST COUNTS TOWARD YOUR SPEWs).

    Up to 5 points possible per day, 35 points possible for the week.

    ***Remember to double check the dates for this challenge! Don't start early and lessen your progress for the current week!

    Hey Bron -

    Do you think you could post a link to the spreadsheet at the top of the monthly challenges on your blog? That way it's easily accessible. Or is it somewhere that's easy to get to that I don't know about? I always have to scroll through the common room to find it, maybe I'm missing something.

    Anyway, weight this week was the same (I weigh in on Saturdays). Cycle week, so not concerned about it. I am heading into week 8 of c25k (but I repeated two of the weeks so I've been running for 9). 28 minutes straight!! Hope I can do it, last week was 25 so adding three minutes seems like a lot. I've gotten into a pattern with 30DS as well (second time through). So I've been working out 6 days a week the past two weeks and hope to continue.
