For example, doing sumo squats (Japan) and/or the 4 mile hike (Hawaii) and/or the stairs (Transylvania/Peru) and skip all those annoying dance videos? I'm cool with it either way, just wondering...
Sorry about the "annoying dance videos" comment. Sometimes I just blurt stuff out jokingly without thinking. I just completely suck at them. Like hardcore bad. They have been the biggest challenge of this trip for me. I literally would rather do all the squats, stairs, etc. 5 times, than have to dance! I know lots of others love the dance videos, though!
Thanks for answering so quickly!
I give @hawkins410 crap about the "annoying dance videos" all the time ! I think she knows it's all in good fun (though I really really really do HATE the dance videos).3 -

Question on Challenge 2. When I first read it, I read it as choose one of the challenges from the list below. Do you could choose to do Its Rajio Taiso time OR Train Likea a Sumo, but you didn't have to do both. In my team chat, people are doing both. Which is correct? Thank you.0

1.) SIMPLY CHOOSE ONE OF THE THIRTEEN ABOVE CHALLENGES
2.) DO IT
3.) POST ON YOUR THREAD WHICH ONE YOU DID
4.) STATE WHY YOU CHOSE THE ONE YOU DID!
5.) PUT 10 POINTS IN THE APPROPRIATE CHALLENGE BOX
Therefore, you only need to do the "Rajio Taiso" OR the "Train Like a Sumo", not both. Thank you for asking!1 -
As far as all the challenges go, I think it's fun to try new things. Personally, I enjoyed the dance videos the most because I love to dance! The steps were the most challenging for me, but that's all part of the experience! Not everyone will be as adept at some things as another one, but we're all stretching ourselves a little.6

I second these thoughts completely - this was my first time as a member and I sincerely hope not the last.

Thank you for the great videos during the weeks of this race. I have taken all but week 2 and put them together in one playlist (most of them, anyway). I didn't put in week 2 because I don't see it on the list. Could you repost that week or send me a link to the videos. Thank you again for your work with this. It was a lot of fun. Kept me moving and gave me ideas on how to be creative - and have fun with exercise.0

I figured out how to get the week 2 videos. I just went to week 8 and found the link there. Now, I have a playlist of the videos. Now, I just need to do them.3
