    Did 5 miles this morning.

    Goal: 100
    Done: 76
    Left: 24

    I'm wondering how I'm going to be able to get my miles in tomorrow...I hurt all over. Spent the majority of my day helping a friend "move" - quickly! Her house was being overtaken by flood waters. So while the men sand bagged outside the women and some more men hauled the basement upstairs, then outside to some trucks. At one point we couldn't get another truck in the yard, so started using a "game sled" (used traditionally to slide heavy game out of the field...say a moose or bear, etc.) But today we used them as "boats" to raft precious things to higher ground. My friend and her wonderful husband know that stuff is just stuff, but it's their stuff, so its hard. It's been raining non stop for 2 days. Still raining. I thought today was supposed to be the last day of it, but its not showing any signs of letting up. Oh and the best part, I'm covered in flood waters and dried sweat and come home to find water slowly seeping in through cracks in the unfinished portion of OUR basement and also to the fact that we have next to no water pressure due to "issues" with the city water mains. So can't even take a bath...

    Oh my, sounds like getting in your miles is the least of your worries. Sorry to hear about the water at your friends house and now at yours also. Hope it lets up soon.

    I'm so sorry to hear about your troubles. Dealing with the effects of water is very difficult. I hope things get better.

    Had a tough week, but this challenge is keeping me on track with exercise at least! Thanks everyone!!

    Also, if anyone is interested, there is a new challenge starting up July 1st that will be using Jillian Michael's dvd "Ripped in 30". I ordered the dvd from amazon for $10 - it should arrive on June 28th. I'm scared...!

    I am so upset I missed out on this challenge. My wife and I are true disciples of Leslie Sansone and We have several of her DVDs that we use. We take them on vacation with us...even on cruises and can be found walking to the beat on the deck using the laptops..lol. Please keep my updated on any LS challenge you have coming.

    Did 5 yesterday, skipping today because when i went downstairs to get started, I discovered our sewer pump wasn't working. By time hubby and I figured it out, it's too late and I just don't have the heart left for it tonight. My grandma is being laid to rest in the morning so probably will end up skipping tomorrow, too. But, I only have 9 miles left, so I am certain I will reach my goal by June 30.

    2 miles and a cool down of the 3 Mile Start Walking. My 2and a half year old little monster decided he was more important than exercise today so I couldn't finish it.

    I did end up taking off Friday and now I really want to take off Wednesday but if I do that means I will have to do 3 miles either Tuesday or Thursday. I'm gonna push it for tomorrow - will hopefuly help my Wednesday weigh in and it's time to step it up a notch. Plus I won't feel guilty on Wednesday!

    Nancy, sorry to hear about your grandmother.
