This is a place for all of our team to talk and support eachother through the rowing challenge. I will need to know your burn daily so you can either post it on this or send me a message. I will do all the leg work of adding up the group totals and turning in our official numbers.

    Hello everyone. I am Allyson, I live in Texas very close to Austin and I have a 4yo. and live on a small farm(ish) I walk over an hour a day feeding, watering and making sure all the animals are ok. I don't log it cause I do it daily.


    I am very excited about this group. It is so much better then normal challenges cause we are working as a team and we all need each other. :)

    Looking forward to meeting the rest of the team.

    Here is my intro as your team captain. I am Belinda and am 28 years old. I am a newly wed with an amazing 8 year old son that keeps me on my feet. I have always had a strong passion for running since I was little. In fact, I coach track for a local middle school and am a PE/Health teacher.

    I joined MFP a few months back because I want to become a healthier person for my family. I typically earn my calories from running, zumba, 30 Day Shred or my push up and sit up challenges. I find that MFP is a great support base for me reach new goals and stay on track. I am sure I would have given up if it wasn't for all of the support I find here.

    Hey, everyone! My name is Lorri, I am 35 and I live in Pembroke GA. I have 3 children, 14, 15, and 16 year old. Two sons and the middle is my daugther. I am married to a wonderful man, we have been married 17 years this July. I am on week 8 of the C25k program and I just signed up for a Half Marathon. It is the Rock and Roll Marathon Series. I burn most of my calories from running and walking. I am looking forward to this challenge. I know I will burn some serious calories training.

    Hi. My name is Kelly. I'm in a rather soggy southwest Iowa. Anybody need some water? We got some.

    I have signed up for my first 5K and am intrigued by a half marathon. Most of my calorie burn will be running, but I do bike and elliptical and once in a while I make the horse burn a few calories too.

    I have a 7 year old son and am approaching my 23rd anniversary with my husband.

    Let's DO this!!

    Hey there!!

    I'm Kristie, country girl!!! Live in a small town in Ontario, love hanging out with our cows and chickens! I have an 8 year old son who loves to be outside constantly, so he definately helps to keep me in shape! I have arthritis and broke an ankle years ago (needed surgery, etc) and was told to expect only to be able to do activities such as swimming, running was never going to happen. Well of course my dream was to run! I've recently completed the C25K (I am so insanely proud of this!!!) and will start the one hour runner program next week. running 3x's a week is where I burn most of my cals, but have recently started using weights. I've also this year completed the 30 day shred and ripped in 30....but I'm hooked on the running!!

I joined here months ago but started being very active here may 31st. I love the support here. I don't burn many calories during the week. But I plan to walk every day during the weekend (when the fiancee is home) We will be a great team :)

    HAHa! I am not creative either. I found that name on the internet. I googled great fitness team names and that was one of them that came up.lol To tell you how creative I am, my dogs are Sweetpea & Bear and I have a cat Buttercup.

    Well I guess I need to share my pet names. I have two dogs a male boxer named Yzerman (who knows what this is after) and a female Treeing Walker Coonhound named Micah (like the rock but spelled different).

    Hi everyone! My name is Ashlea and I come from SW Missouri. It's pretty small town here where I live, but I love the dirt roads to run and the clear cold creeks here!! I love to run, swim, canoe, and go for bike rides. If I'm not burning calories that way I usually try to do the 30 Day Shred/6 week six pack videos; or I just hit the gym & do whatever I'm in the mood for. This challenge def. sounds like a lot of fun, and I agree, the team part of it really has me interested/excited! Looking forward to talking to all of you in the future! Best of luck! =)

    If there are still two openings left, you can count myself and my mom (dcrawshaw) in!!
    I'm 30, single and have two dogs (Boo Bear & Sadie), two cats (Katydid & Stitch) and a horse (Kobe). I get my calories burned pretty much any way possible. Sometimes it's cutting firewood, walking, running, biking, water aerobics, P90X, 30DS, home improvement, cooking, working in my leather shop, etc, etc. You get the idea. LOL

    My mom is a few years older than me and we work out about as frequently as we can. We live 2.5 miles apart, but sometimes our schedules don't mesh very well. She has a miniature schnauzer (Tucker) & a cat (Doc Holladay). She gets her exercise in the yard mostly during the summer and whenever she accompanies me in my workouts. We really enjoy biking together!! Mom & Dad have been married for 36 years and are still madly in love (it's kinda gross from my perspective, but I'm grateful anyway...lol). They live on a small farm that keeps Dad busy and out of her hair most of the time.

    Oh! We live in NE Kansas and, yes, the weather is exactly like they say it is. :)

    HI I am Belinda's Mother-in-law and really glad she can keep us all motivated. I can't wait to start in July. I'm having a good week this week on burning calories, which we could start today!!

    I am taking a quick break from work to introduce myself (hopefully there's a spot left for me!). :)

    My name is Mindy, I am 27, I'll be 28 in a little under three weeks. I live in Delaware with my husband, our two year old daughter and a miniature schanuzer named Carrie. I work in Accounting and right now we are nearing the end of the fiscal year so things are getting busy. I love my job and the people I work with. I was doing JM 30DS and working out with fitness classes three times a week from March until Mid May, but then my mother in law's cancer got progressively worse and she passed on May 19th. Since then it has been hard to get back in the swing of things and I am hoping this challenge will be good for me. I have a very competitve personality (I played sports for most of my life) and I like to win, so I think this will be the motivation I need!
