    We're still getting our ducks in a row, but there's myself for the Horde and Sara Alexandre will be doing the First Responders. Other experienced Walking Dead Challenge leaders are tj1376, Angimom and DouMc who will all be able to answer your questions. I believe tj1376 will be leading the Teens. Not sure who you guys have but we'll figure it out, lol.

    I'm a teacher now, and my students sometimes seem like zombies, so this should be cool...

    Truth! Love this!! What level/subject do you teach?

    I teach English at a community college. It's fun!

    Gonna hit the fitness test today and then locate the dead body in my son's room.
    So, I was looking at my previous post, and I guess I just still feel fatter, cause my start weight is actually 193 lol. My head ain't made it to onederland yet.

    Did you find that dead body?

    It's two days since the fitness test and my quads are still hurting! Who does squats to failure? :smile: Here are the results of my fitness test:

    run/walk 1 mile: 14:23
    half pushups: 10
    squats: 90
    plank: 33s
    flexibility: -13

    Going to try the squat video later today. Hope my quads don't break.

    Ach mein Gott! I used an empty bar so I could feel like a champion (12.5lbs), and stayed with our German Adonis. Sorta. I had to choose between squatting on tip toes only to get down to where he did, or remain partially upright (see my miserable flexibility score above).

    Sorry I've been MIA team. I had a huge business conference that happened to coincide with the first week of this challenge. Back home now though.
    To everyone who has joined since those first few days: Welcome!!
    I was so happy to get back and see that the teacher team had grown so much.
    I will get in on the challenge in the morning.

    Hi team. I'm so sorry but I'll be joining the horde. I run 31 km this week and had a deficitbut didn't get to strength training or the challenges. First week back at school being a teacher in real life kinda exhausted me. See you on the flip side maybe?

    BRAAIIINNNNNSSSSSSS.....

    Because I I left the Gore Card accidentally locked (ooops sorry) if anyone found themselves locked out yesterday, feel free to post today and we'll still accept the results until this evening.

    So far 9 out of 18 of you have checked in. I will message the Missing and see if they've been Eaten.

    Hey teachers!. Just got home from work. Early shift this morning. I went to bed last night just minutes before the gore card opened. I posted from work this morning. I think I made it safely away from the horde! I wanted to post my results here though because I never got the chance to share them yesterday.

    1 mile run: 14m10s (4.23mph)
    Pushups: 4 full, 11 half
    Squats: 41
    Plank: 49 sec
    Sit & Reach: +3.25"
    Bring Sally Up: Sucked megabunches & I just used a broom handle.

    In conclusion, I'm barely avoiding walkers at every turn and need to get in shape!

    The members list is now updated and new challenge (s) and or attacks will be posted in the morning. If you see any errors feel free to message me.

    In summary:
    22 players are Missing and Presumed Eaten.
    4 were Excused.
    First Responders did very well, followed by the Teachers.
    The Teens have only 4 surviving members.
    Zombies have 3 Missing members but gained a strong one.

    I've done the challenges for this week, but need to do 2 flex workouts tomorrow to hit one of my goals. (I have to do 50 minutes of flex for another challenge so I'll definitely hit it.)

    I almost always end up logging workout videos as either Aerobics (low or high impact) or Calisthenics. I logged the disco zumba as "Dance, general"

    As everyone probably knows, there wasn't a new Fear the Walking Dead last night. They went back in time and showed us the first two episodes. So, our challenge this week is to go back in time to Fall of 2014 and enjoy the memory of Carol destroying Terminus.

    Pick a Walking Dead character and do their challenge video, stay within your goals, report next Saturday, as per usual.
