Too inspired to be tired "March Madness"

As most of you are aware, Tanya is no longer with us. I was shocked to discover that on Monday morning and to be honest I couldn't stop thinking about it all day. I felt bad that she must have had so much going on in her life to deactivate her account. I wished I could have known and offered my assistance if it was too much right now. After contemplating for a solid day I decided to contact MFP to be added to the current challenge and become the moderator for the next month. Please understand, this is Tanya's challenge and if she comes back I will hand it back to her as she invested so much of her time to make this the the successful group that it is. She selflessly gave so much of herself to all of us and I for one benefited greatly from this challenge. When I began this challenge last February, I couldn't walk more than 10 feet because of a spinal injury. At that time I was told by my doctor swimming and biking and that was all I was cleared for. I put my bike on a trainer and rode nearly everyday and slowly gained more strength. If not for the motivation I received from this challenge I would not be at the point I am today. I am still working at becoming whole but I have come such a long way. I have sent invitations to all of you for the month of March, check out the challenge, there are some great activities that have been added. Tanya always wanted to add weight loss to the challenge and that is now part of the package as well as some fun!!
If you didn't get an invite to the group let me know and I will send one to you:)

I started this challenge in month 2, I remember Tanya's wall post saying we were nearly close to 3k miles between us as a push... ow how it's grown since then. It's shame she deactivated but glad someone has taking over (even if it just temporary if Tanya returns)
So thank you!0 -
It has grown since I began last February, which is the reason I decided to take it over. Tanya put so much of herself into this challenge, she had to know someone would take over. Before I even considered taking over the group I checked out some others and didn't see anything like this challenge. I am hoping she will return, I can't even imagine how she must be feeling, she was so connected to everyone. You are welcome, I'm happy to do this and we are going to have a great month!!:)0

I had no idea about her leaving. I hope she's well and able to return. I know she had a LOT going on in her life.
Happy March everyone, let's have a great month!0
