Spreadsheet updated to here.

Okay....feeling the love! :blushing: I was hoping* somebody read these lol...it was hard to tell, but thank you, thank you, thank you all of you that take the time to read these. :flowerforyou:

And the first gold star for September goes to DJMICHEALS for encouraging another challenge member to get moving and report their numbers! I love it! And I thoroughly encourage each of you to do the same if there's someone in the challenge that is either on your Friend List here or maybe you know them personally IRL and they could maybe use a friendly nudge.

Okay and @DJMICHEALS, I'll give you one more shout out for hitting your original goal and then adjusting it by so much and continuing to try to hit that! For that I award you a special, honorary green for the rest of the month! :bigsmile:

@CBASCOMB83 - You're very welcome and I'm genuinely thrilled to see you doing so well!

@ANIMEFAN914 - No worries...keep moving it and report in when you get back and I will make sure you are right back in the green where you belong!

@JTH11706 - SAME HERE!!! Don'tcha just hate that when you have to pull out a heroic last effort to make goal in the last 5 days of the month?!?!? I think last month for me might have been one of about 2 times TOTAL in the couple years of doing this challenge where I didn't have to do the Superman thing at the end of the month! LOL It's SO much easier to stay on track, isn't it? And sincerely....THANK YOU...telling me that my efforts here are helping you to stay on track means everything to me and I truly appreciate that.

@DCMAT - Seriously....speaking of being a Superman all month long...!!! Dude...

@SUFFERLANDRIAN - Good luck on your ride in the morning!! Hope you find someone good to draft behind.

@BUTTERFLYKISSES123 - I also appreciate your kind comments. I'm sure that you remember back when it used to be a little more like that around here in this challenge. That is one of the errr....um...challenges of this challenge now that it has grown so large. But when I have time, I will do my best to try to help rekindle that spirit. :flowerforyou:

@AMAZINGMUMMY - Welcome back!! I wasn't too terribly worried as you've done as many of these MYACs as I have and it's just part of your routine to log and eventually report in when you can. No worries. Glad to see you and hope you had a good time! :drinker:

@HANNAH_RYANN - Congrats on your first 10K distance!!! And what an amazing Before/After transformation in your profile pic!!! Rock on!

@ELLIINJAPAN - Congrats on making your goal!!! And have fun on vacation -- see you when you get back!! :happy:

Have a great weekend everyone and KEEP MOVING!

Dave
