Hello team 2, my name is Dan I am 52 years old form Connecticut, I am an LPN working full time plus mostly in an urgent care center and covering primary care offices on my "off days". I have done some other challenges on MFP, this is the first one of this style. my weight has been up and down over the last 4-5 years and I am currently back where I started 5 years ago. I am married, coming up on 30 years, 4 grown children and the most awesome 10 year old grandson anyone could ever ask for, and 3 1 year old Shepard bagel mix puppies.
Working 60ish hours a week it is often hard to eat right and exercise time is at a premium. I take my commitments very seriously and use the challenges and the responsibility to the team as extra motivation. Looking forward to team 2 winning this amazing race.5 -
I forgot to mention where I am from. I am from Pennsylvania.0

I'm from Wisconsin. So far looks like I'm the oldest of the group. Anyone over 53? Thanks for the friending education Lesley I'll work on that tonight on laptop.1

Hello, Dan! So happy to have a guy on the team. Sorry you are so outnumbered, but we'll play nice. Lol.
I cannot wait to get the race started. I'm so excited!!2 -
I'm working on prepping some chicken for the week, so hopefully I can get my diet back on track. I have rarely been finishing my diary under goal lately. I make sure I log everything though, to the best of my ability. That just hasn't had the same power that it used to though at keeping me from being SO bad. Hope to get that back!! Hope everyone's Sunday is going well!3

Hi folks. Another Jennifer or Jen here. I am from gorgeous Colorado, USA. Creeping up to 40, mom of 3, 6,7 and 17. My Bf and his mom also live with me. I work in admin. Started my weight loss journey in June. I have reached my first mini goal and started on my second.
@lbenson2006 you will be a great team captain. I agree, communication with the team is one of the most helpful in keeping us successful. Can you list some of the more weird activities that can count for our milage minutes?0 -
I am from California0

Since there are so many Jens/Jennifers, just call me Jenilla. It's my username, why not use it?

Team 2!!!! So glad to be back for a second go at this and I'm thrilled to see so many familiar names and excited we are mixing things up with some new team members.
I'm Kim, I live in Colorado. In the past year I've lost about 50 pounds, completed my first 1/2 marathon and hiked my first 14er. Recently I've gained about 15 of those 50 pounds back and have found I've slipped back into some old, bad habits. I look forward to re-committing to this group and myself. I find that week to week challenges (like this one) along with longer term fitness goals (i.e. 1/2 marathon) help me stay on track with my health and fitness goals.
I have a passion for travel and I enjoyed this challenge over the summer. I found myself inspired by people on this team. We have a terrific team lead, lbenson2006 and I expect we are the Team 2 Beat (love that team name).2 -
Welcome back Colorado Jen and Colorado Kim!! Glad you both have rejoined the group! I can't wait to see where our first destination is to!0

It has been wisely suggested that each team have a co-captain. I am pleased to announce that Tami, @murdog3t, has agreed to be ours! Turns out she has some experience with all this captaining stuff, so where ever I fail, she will step in and keep us going in the right direction!! Lol. Thanks so much Tami!!6

Hi Team 2. Just getting in from visiting my son and daughter in CT. I'm Lynn, an RN living 30" north of Boston in a quiet beautiful suburb....and apparently, at 56 years young, the oldest of this crew...but, hey, if the shoe fits, wear it! I think I've also heard that Age is just a Number. I'm excited to be on this team, sounds like great competitors and enthusiasm. And I happen to be going to Washington this week, what a coinkeedink. Can't wait for midnight...arrre youuuu ready to rrrrrumbllllllle!?4
