This is my first-ever challenge of any kind. I joined the group & i do appear on the Winners & Walkers list, so that is all good. My question is: Should I be seeing this in the "My challenges" section of the menu? So far, I've only been able to visit the challenge by searching "The Walking Dead". Help...what am I missing? ☺0

I did find the listing under "Groups" to come here so that part of my question has been answered. ☺0

Hi. I would like to do the Character Carol challenge this week however it involves 1 min of jumproping or jumping jacks. I am unable to perform those due to a medical issue. Can I use my elliptical or March in place for that 1 minute instead and still qualify for the challenge?0

I've noticed when posting that some of my comments are missing the last couple of sentences. In all of these cases, there are other comments much longer than mine. Is this something with phone? Anyone else have this problem?0
