    Looking forward to this challenge again! Boredom and knowing I would be JUST under my goal for the week, made me throw in an extra workout to get myself over. So I think I need this again for sure!

    I'm in again! It definitely pushes me to make sure I get my burn in! Since I had over 3500 by thursday this week, I think I'll bump my personal goal up to 4000!

    I am in for trying this but I am not really sure how much I normally burn. I will set my goal low for this week and try to reach 3500 cals in a week.

    I've been out for a few weeks, but back in it this week. Last week I burned about 6000 calories, but this weekend I'm going away so I'll set my goal for 4500.

    Thank you very much for driving this challenge every week. It has kept me motivated and accountable. It has definitely made me wake up early in the morning to hit the gym even if I feel sleepy. : ). I just finished my second week and I exceeded my calorie burn target again. So I am upping my target this week to 4,000.

    Weekly Goal: 4,000
