    @ashorey87 I know right makes me nuts! I am posting Jess's minutes for her at the end of the week. She couldn't access the spreadsheet. I'm also doing shansgotgoals to.
    I was trying to write to welcome @JackRemi and thank you Ann for posting the link for him.
    Also we lost a team member gebeziseva had to leave the race. She pushed herself to much and flared an injury and is in bad shape now. So please everyone remember we don't need to be rock stars everyday. Be kind and listen to your bodies.

    Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that - injuries are tough. Been there, a few years ago, I injured myself bad enough that I need physio for a few months. Wasn't fun!

    On a positive note, we have already completed 32.5% of the required miles!

    Woah! That's encouraging! Thanks for pointing that out. The weather has been gorgeous where I am and that helps me want to get more exercise minutes in.

    Hey Team! I'm so inspired reading and seeing everyone's posts! Today was a busy day at work. No workout today. My boyfriend is out of town, so my schedule is out of whack. Have a great night!

    Hey! My exercise has been running up and down stairs for twenty minutes like a crazy person trying to get work done for a show. I can't wait to be done and back to the gym.

    So still not feeling great and that is slowing me down. Wednesday's are always super busy long days for me. I'm learning that my emotions have a huge effect on me. It takes everything in me not to go for something bad to eat when I'm really frustrated like I was at work today. I need to retrain my brain. Going to bed and setting my alarm to get up and workout. Tomorrow is another day right. I'm enjoying reading all your posts. It is encouraging me to keep going. Have a good sleep everyone.

    Hey Happy Feet it seems I have looked over someone on our team. Shona is the screen name and I've sent her a request. I'm not sure how I missed her. Has anyone friended her or heard from her yet?
    I feel horrible I would never leave someone out! This dang kidney stone is making me crazy

    I have sent a request - I missed her too.

    Ps, Good morning team! We are at the halfway point for the week, and are ahead of the game at 62.3% complete for our miles! Awesome effort by everyone! Today is my rest day from the gym to give my muscles a break, but I think I might take advantage of the mild temps and melting snow and go for a short outdoor run tonight :)

    Got my 6am workout in, now off to work! Make good choices today team, and don't forget to get some workouts in!!

    You go girl, great job!! Remember that if you feel hungrier than normal because of the morning workout, eat clean and stay on point. You got this!!

    Thanks girl! I ate breakfast before the gym, and made a protein shake to bring with me to work after the gym. Always planning ahead, so I don't make bad choices! :)

    BTW, I see you've been getting your exercise in on your diary, but don't forget to add your workout minutes to the spreadsheet ;) Have an awesome day!!

    Thanks, glad you have been checking on me too! I have a fitbit to track my exercise, so I will use those minutes at the end of the week when I update our spreadsheet through lupie777 because I can't access/edit the spreadsheets properly.

    My minutes so far this week are:
    Monday - 78 minutes
    Tuesday - 148 minutes
    Wednesday - 82 minutes ☺

    I am in a steps challenge at work. My team of 8 people are doing over 10,000 steps each day, so that is helping keep my minutes up for this as well. Let's go Happy Feet!

    How are you doing today? I can be an emotional eater, too, and that brain retaining is hard! :( don't be too hard on yourself.

    I'm feeling better today thanks. The medicine I took last night knocked me out which was good but I didn't get up in time to work out this morning. Hoping to exercise after we get home tonight after all the academic meets and soccer games and practices. Hope everyone is having a good day.

    Was going to bail on my run tonight because it's a rainy night, but I felt guilty sitting here watching Netflix, so I put on some warm clothes and laced up my shoes. 5k run done in 41 minutes. Slow 5k, but its a PR for me, because I despise cardio. So needless to say, I'm feeling proud!

    Hey Happy Feeters lol we have added a new team member today her name is vjcarrillo. Please go on and friend request her and welcome her to our team. We had 3 original team members I hadn't heard from and Eva had to leave the race. So mallowbar gave us vjcarrillo today and as I told you we also have Shona. I'm sure you guys saw Shona on the spreadsheet. Hopefully we will be all good now going into week 2!!

    Hey thanks for adding me on late in the game. I am 26 years old with three children, a 7 year old boy, 5 year old girl and a three year old boy. Since after having my daughter i gained so much weight and I have been depressed. I get motivated to lose weight by exercising but have a hard time eating clean. (its just so much easier with prepackaged food) I need a support group to keep me on the right track.
