Woo, finally got up early- I only went for a walk, so I may still hit the gym later!0

Out the door by 4am for a 7 mile run this morning. Great way to start the week.0

I'm so excited that we all took advantage of a chance to get that early morning burn. I will be honest it was a huge challenge for me last week and managed to squeeze out 2 mornings, but it's a new week! Let's get a head start everyone!!! I received 6 March Morning Challenge members who reported their success and we burned a whopping 6725 Calories :happy: between the 6 of us (reported)!!!
FANTASTIC EVERYONE.
Week 1 Results!!!

I definitely forgot to fill out the spreadsheet for last week! Oops. It's blocked at work so I have to remember to do it when I get home this week!
I started this week off with a morning workout so I'm in good shape!0 -
The graph looks great!!!!!!:flowerforyou:
I was up at 5 this morning to do my mini stepper. I've completed my Shred, also. However, my children are up so my bike will have to wait.0 -
I didn't add my last week either. Do I have to edit the spreadsheet myself? Anyways, I only got one morning workout in last week. I set my alarm for a short run this morning, but I just couldn't do it. Hopefully I can get a couple mornings in this week.0

I forgot to log back in last week! All but 3 days I've exercised each morn, Sat and Sun I didn't and Friday I didn't. But I'm back on track this morning and did a 30 power walk dvd.0

I started getting up early this week to get my walk in. they say you burn the most fat when you do it in the morning because overnight the biddy had no food so out pulls energy from the fat first.0
-
I get up at 5:15 every morning and I'm at the gym by 6:00. My workout varies depending on my mood but I like to do intervals between the treadmill and the elliptical. The gym I use is at work so I have the place completely to myself every morning.
This morning I did 80 minutes on the treadmill at 3.5 mph.0 -

I did hear that too with working out in the morning to be the best for your body. I do notice it gives me that lil spike of energy to get my day started.0 -

That's great you have the gym to yourself! I love intervals too just to keep my interest and switch it up.0 -
Ran 4 miles at 9 min/mile pace at 4:00am. Much warmer today than yesterday. Feels good to get the workout in early.0

I love the feeling of working out in the morning! Just finished Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 this morning! My goal is 4 morning workouts this week so I'm half way there!0

@tmccutcheon - you are getting that early early morning workout - GREAT! Please don't forget to track your weekly progress on this form for the challenge so I can record our group's success at the end of the week.
you should find your MFP name in the drop down list: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&pli=1&formkey=dHlYUldZRE4zbm1PT29weFVXMFZzS3c6MA#gid=00 -

@Ninerz113 - hey I am doing the JM Ripped in 30 too! I just started on Sunday after buying the DVD on Saturday. What do you think of it? Today will be day 3 for me.0 -
ugh I'm so aggravated! I woke up early to do a bootcamp workout... well the workout gods reallllly hate me this morning... the xbox won't work for some reason.... that wasn't going to keep me from working out... so I went to do something On Demand.... my on demand isn't working. BOOOO!! OMG and I woke up early and everything.....0

I felt the same way last Saturday. My OnDemand stop working mid-workout so my morning was all broke up. You definitely have the motivation there - maybe check out Exercise TV online, self.com workouts, youtube workouts - you can make it happen! 0 -
Must be something in the air! On Saturday, my mini stepper overheated and broke, then I burned my fingers picking up the piece that broke off (thankfully, I had already done my weights for the day 'cause I don't think I would have been able to pick them up). My ipod quit working half-way through my sationary bike.
I'm up this morning. I've already Shredded and just trying to decide between L2 Shred or Mini Stepper? Hmmmmm0 -

I love it! I pre-ordered it so I got my copy last week and I just started week 2 this morning. Week 1 was fairly challenging but definitely doable if you're used to her 3-2-1 system (from 30 day shred). I am nervous/excited for weeks 3 and 4 because I think they are going to kick my butt!0 -

OK, just added to the link. I was not aware of you tracking there. Thanks.0 -
It has been my goal to work out in the mornings...and *poof* here's a challenge for it! I'm a week late but I'm going to try it out!0
-
Well, it took me a week and a half to get up and workout before work but I finally did it! Now, if I can get in my day 2 for week 2 tomorrow, I'll be on the right track. I have to do that tomorrow if I want to get a work out in at all anyway.0
