I'm delighted that we've made so many introductions already, but we are still waiting for a few stray travelers to join the expedition. Perhaps they are enjoying some last drinks in the airport lounge!

If you haven't already be sure to introduce yourself - as briefly or detailed as you like - and get comfortable! We have a long road trip ahead before we hit those fantastic beaches in Miami. Go T5! :)

    Wow, y'all are on it today! I'm going to try logging on as much as I can. I've completed sending friend requests to all the team mates and I put in a blurb about getting to know me. :) I'll let y'all know ahead of time that I mostly use the app so getting online doesn't happen as often. I'll try to log on and check in about once or twice a day. But, I'll be here. Go team! ~Charity

    Well, I tried the zumba as much as my 1 year old would let me. I'd try to do some of the dance moves and he was holding on to my leg and thought it was quite fun to swing on my leg while I moved. Lol. So it was kinda like fumbling Zumba with a large ankle weight here and there. :D ~Charity

    For all you folks worried about the water callenge try this... Drink 1 to 1.5 cups of water every hour. Set an alarm/timer on your phone to help remind yourself!

    Drinking a glass of water 1st thing when you wake in the morning is possibly one of the best things you can do for yourself. Water is the catalyst for a majority of the biological processes in our body. You can do it!

    @BirdParrott that's what I currently do. :) I usually get in 100-110 ozs of water a day by doing 12-16 oz every hour or so up until about 9pm but to do half my body weight would be another 40ish ozs...and I'm not awake enough or able to drink that much. Lol.

    I've sent all my friend requests, but waiting on a couple.

    I too am very glad that we are being marked on Zumba participation not skill :wink:

    I'm in. I introduced myself in the team five discussion board in the main group. I am 52, married, with two teen-aged daughters. I live in NC, and am a biotech/bio instructor at a community college. I just accepted friend requests from everyone who sent one, and will look to see who I need to add. I just logged Tuesday's minutes. I will be a little light this week, but I am committed!
