    Well done @gam3rguy. Sweet momento! Did you have to run through fire or anything crazy like that?

    After a very disappointing day yesterday- wrecked my diet and laid around like a sloth all day- I picked myself up today and decided to keep going.

    Chest and tris today.

    Looking forward to seeing a pic of the fire jump @gam3rguy. Pretty cool.

    Lats (discovered just how weak these are today) and biceps (fave thing to work on) this morning followed by a 30 minute TM run.

    Beautiful warm day here so the afternoon will be yard work.

    Lots of activity in this group since I was last here. Great to see so many people in my own age group. I'm 47, but I feel better than I have in years.

    Just started MFP and FitBit. 42. 6'. Need to lose a stone or so, maybe two (and then put it back on in the right places). Glad to be 'in' the club :)

    Hi folks - way to keep knocking out those workouts!
    I finally ran yesterday. Did a short 4.5 km and the foot felt just ok.
    did two back to back strength workouts last week. That's the plan for this week, but I know how things can quickly change.
    Our community is receiving 127 evacuees for a northern reserve due to flooding. As a Red Cross volunteer, I am on standby.

    Welcome to all the new folks! Great to see you here. :)

    Leg day!
    Got up early to get them done before heading to the city.
    Hot, hot, hot here- record breaking temps.

    I lifted today. Leg/glute day....am feeling it pretty good, already, so I expect full-on DOMs tomorrow.

    I have a hearing the rest of today and then UBER-driving kidlets around this evening. And tomorrow is full-day work....but hubby returns around 12:30 a.m. tonight and hopefully his work travel is kaput for the next little while.

    Let me in this group! Tired of the punks ruling the site! :)
    Just under 6'3 and was 240 about two months ago. Started hitting the gym and eating better. Down to 223 as of today. Trying for gym at least 5 days a week, I do like 25 minutes elliptical then hit the weights! Working so far but my diet is probably calorie deficient

    Had a bad allergic reaction to something over the weekend requiring steroids to overcome. Swelling up like a balloon. Skipping the scale for a while until all this flushes out. I was up 8 pounds over 36 hours from the reaction swelling and medication. Yuck

    Niiiiiiice @gam3rguy!! The people behind you at the fire look a little worried. Hope you are stoked about doing this- a tough race!

    I am with you @Beeps2011. Been watching the coverage and it is horrible. Hope everyone got out safe.

    Late workout-started after 8:30pm! Late for this old gal. Did shoulders and abs. Hate doing abs- they hurt! As my husband would say- then somebody call the waaaaaambulance.

    Random question, are you all seeing a lot of new ads on MFP in the middle and slowing down the app? I am seeing it just today for the first time like this!

    Hi everyone -I cut back my workouts this week. My ankle and knee needed a rest, but still dropped 2 more pounds. Trying to psych myself up for a color run in Flagstaff with my daughter this weekend. I could always use a break from the 100 degree weather here in Phoenix, but a 'cold front' is coming through Arizona and our run on Saturday in Flagstaff will most likely be in 30 degree weather and rain likely. :smile: Don't think the weather can ruin the fun of a color run with my teenager, but she's a bit freaked out - LOL!
