    This is very very sad. I have been doing this moving my butt challenge since they began. I seem to have lost my mojo. If anyone finds it could u plz return in back to me. I am in need of some!!!!

    @bigmama65: I found some mojo lying around here in Wisconsin. Sending it to you express.

    Seriously, though: Hang in there! I've lost my mojo before. When that happens, I try to make myself do something--anything--no matter how small. Generally once I've started things start to snowball. But, like darkrider said, maybe try something new...? Get some new music to listen to, or a recorded book to listen to, as you workout. Or, workout with a friend...? Good luck!

    Okay, total honesty here - I was being extremely lazy today. Then I came on here and saw everyone's @ss moving and thought to myself you can move a least a little - jumped on the treadmill and did one mile of HIIT and one more mile for speed. Two more miles running to add to my total for the month.

    Never would have done it without all you @ss movers, so thank you to all!

    @ bigmama - Someone much wiser than me once told me - Your good days are not your best days; your best days are your worst days when you push through and do it anyway. You can do this!!!

    @ glenoakchic Go to trickerfactory.com, follow the instructions to set up your exercise ticker, then copy the bbCode and paste it in your post. You will have to update, copy, and paste every time you want it to appear.

    @vhuber, I read this story and couldn't resist sharing it. It’s not really related to fitness but it relates to Butt-e and Montana.

    Butte, Montana began life in 1864 as a gold-rush town, but huge deposits of copper were soon discovered on what came to be known as “the richest hill on earth”. Situated more than 5,000 feet above sea level, and riddled with shafts and tunnels, the city boasted that it was a mile deep as well as a mile high. As the tin mines of Cornwall and Ireland went into decline, Gaelic-speakers flocked into the town to work the mines. The census of 1900 shows Butte to have been the most predominantly Irish city in the US, Boston included.

    Father Sweeney, a contemporary american priest from Butte learned some Gaelic from his grandparents. On a visit to County Kerry, Ireland he addressed a large lunch gathering, concluding with the traditional Gaelic toast that translates to English as “The goat is on the spit”. Unfortunately his accent wasn’t quite up to it. “The Gaelic for ‘goat’ is only a hair’s breath removed from the word for the male organs,” says father Sweeney. “You can imagine how shocked the good ladies of the parish were to hear this American priest proclaiming, ‘My balls are on fire’. ‘I’ll be dead for years,’ he said, ‘and that’s all they’ll remember me for in Kerry’

    @ Bigmama - your mojo is just down the road a little way. A quick little walk and you'll find it. If you just move your *kitten* for a few minutes it will come back. We're all here to make sure you find it.

    I did 3 miles today with 2 miles of HIIT. Trying to improve my speed little by little.
