    265 bonus points still up for grabs on the spreadsheet. We are currently dead tied with team 4 for this week's 3rd place. For the entire challenge we are 225 points behind team 4. Team 4 currently has 270 bonus points up for grabs. :# Let's get in what we can and hope for the best.

    I struggled big time to get up this morning and get minutes in and it didn't help when my husband was giving me crap about working out 7 days a week. I told him it's the last day of the challenge and I wanted to at least get in 30 minutes. I'm glad I did it. Made me feel a lot better if I want to be mostly lazy the rest of the day! :p

    It was fun working with you all on this challenge! I hope to get in on the next one, too. I think I've done all I can for the week, so I'll just sit back and watch what happens. B)

    Completed challenge 2, 140 sumo squats. I wasn't on the team when this challenge was first issued, but it sounded like a good one for a hotel room all week ( quiet and you don't have to lay on the floor).

    Hey team. Completed challenge 2 yesterday but forgot to log. I chose "Turkey Trot Time!" from New York mainly because initially I thought we had to do all the challenges from a particular leg, and that leg was the most convenient for me. I would have picked the Muves instead but by the time I found out I had already started this one.

    I'm going to miss this challenge and this team so much. I hope there'll be another soon after.

    Anyway, I don't usually work out on a Sunday, but I'm going to do a little something in a few to get some points on the board.

    I ran out of time this week and did all of the video workouts today! I did the extra 20 minutes at the beginning of the challenge, the ab workouts 2x each, and I went back to repeat the Mundoguyi videos from the week seven challenges "Peru tiene talento". @MissionEnforcer
