Does anyone else think it's silly that you can't enter the orange points until Thursday? It is 3 days, correct? Monday....Tuesday....Wednesday....yep.........thats 3 if I'm counting right6

Ok. Challenge videos done, clementine eaten (3/3. I would log it but....) & as much exercise as my life would allow. I was going for 60 minutes on the treadmill but DS called & I had to pick him up because he was sick. Oh well 45 is good enough!
Now off to move furniture & paint!3 -

I agree. I've completed this and it would be nice to add my points.1 -
@MonicaA2013 lets do the cute little coffee shop. Do they offer tea? I love the smell of coffee but not the taste. I know-I'm weird! Right now Friday says "partly sunny" is that a good day for you?
I am sure they have tea's but i have only looked at the coffee myself..LOL. Friday afternoon would be great !! Let me know what time works for you.
I need to update the spreadsheet for yesterday's activities, i have a few more minutes to add. Today i will get my last orange eaten, and i will try to get the videos done between today and tomorrow.
I LOVE how our team i so active and communicating like this !!!
I will catch up with you all later today. DH has been out of work for over a month with broken ribs, and today we are going to go do our first job to see how he is recovering, and how much longer he should wait to go out on his own. SO glad he taught me the trade years ago..LOL.4 -
Hi all I am Lynn Baumgartner
FAVORITE EXERCISE I am a walker in the summer time. I am thinking of going back to a gym where they have group classes. I really like body pump
I am from SE Wisconsin just outside of Racine south of Milwaukee north of Chicago. It is a smaller town but the good thing is that it is 1 mile to the down town and 1 mile back. The DQ is a 3 mile round trip along with the subway. I have no furry friends anymore but am now free to travel. I attached my fav. workout at planet fitness If I use the one that the arms don't move I have my hand weights. The one that the arms move on the TV thing doesn't work.

Hi everyone! So I've worked out yesterday and today but haven't added my mins yet. I'll do it later today. I like using my computer to edit the spreadsheet. I've also completed the orange challenge and was wondering why we couldn't update yet. Looks like I'm not the only one. Oh well, sounds like we'll get a lot of points for that tomorrow.
I went to the rec center today and I've missed that place. I did so much, I'll probably be sore tomorrow. It was just nice to have all the different things to do. I'm going to do the videos tomorrow. My daughter has an early orthodontist appointment and my son has early practice, so I'm pretty sure I'm not walking. The videos will be a nice change.4 -
Hey guys! Upped the ante today and did 45 minutes instead of my usual 30. I've also ate all my oranges, so that's another 5 points to add tomorrow. My goal is to be consistent and give at least 30 minutes of exercise every day (hopefully more).
I will definitely do the video challenges, but it will probably be over the weekend! What'd everyone think of tai chi?2 -
Hello friends! It's been a busy day so I'm just barely checking in now. Had my first orange of the week today but only because I didn't get to the store to buy any in the first place until last night :P I'll eat one tomorrow and Friday, and that will take care of that challenge! I know I won't have time to work out on my lunch break tomorrow so I'm planning to get up early and either go for a run or knock out the videos. Wish I had more time to devote to exercise but working two jobs and having two young kids with a husband whose commute has pretty much doubled thanks to winter weather...yeah, makes it hard. I'm trying to pull my weight! Thanks to everyone for all you've done so far!5

Hey Team keep up the good work everyone and keep pushing through week one. I too have the orange challenge done and will enter it as soon as the column is open. Have a great day!3
-
Hello everyone, just to keep up to date. I have finished the oranges and have been working on the videos. Forgot how much I like oranges so will be adding them in to my fruit line-up
I am out of town until Sunday so not sure if I will be able to log a whole lot coming before sunday afternoon. Again, my minutes will be a little down this week but I promise to make up for it in the coming weeks.4 -
I went into the old gym and signed up. I am back to group classes. What better time to start than now. So I took a zumba class and scored 60 min.s

I got to the store finally this evening and have eaten my first orange so I'm right with you @carinamenina!
I did get my exercise in this morning but I hopping to get at least one more in tonight before bed as tomorrow is shaping up to be a busy one. I have been informed that the plumber is coming in the morning to plumb the new bathroom and he WILL be shutting OFF the water, eeek! I hate that when it happens! But I can't complain to much it means progress.
I did get the long video done this morning and I may get the 10 minute one yet tonight.
@MonicaA2013 Would 1:00 on Friday be to early for you? I know you said you work on Fridays. That should give us time for tea and a good walk and I may still get home before rush hour. Can you send me the address and name of where to meet you?3 -
Had a great day today. Got 30 min exercise Video in and all my oranges in. Hope everyone is doing ok tonight. One more week I get to go back to work after being off since June 16/16 with knee replacement surgery (both). Go team7

Entered my minutes for the last two days and it brought us into 3rd.4

Hi everyone! Did a 2 hour training session today plus did the 15 minute video so have lots of minutes to contribute today. I also ate my last orange so will complete that challenge tomorrow. I'll also get the last video down tomorrow as well. Hope we can still manage to snag first! Go team!!5

Hi everyone! Sorry I'm so late on the intro and the team thread. Three things about me:
1. My name is Shannon (everyone calls me Shan) I am 24 from a tiny town outside of New Orleans called Abita Springs. Where we are known for our beer (yes we have a brewery but no grocery store! Not even a Walmart!), our spring water, and our annual town garage sale! This is my 2nd Amazing Race. I'm a bit of a challenge junkie I'm in several (GoTs, Hogwarts, TWD, LOTR)
2. I am not married and have no kids. I do however have a fur baby! She's a lab/beagle mix and her name is Lucy
3. My physical therapist actually started my mfp experience a little over a year when I had ACL reconstruction and meniscus surgery. I totally blew my knee playing softball and all the running I've done probably didn't help. I am currently training for a Warrior Dash! I've run a cpl full marathons, a cpl halfs and too many smaller races to count. I've done a 50 mile charity bike ride. I live to be outdoors and am fortunate that I live where I can be year round.
Challenge 1:
1. Name: Shan
2. Favorite Way to Exersice: That's tough. I love to bike, swim, play softball. I have recently fallen in love with Rock Climbing.
3. Where I'm from: Abita Springs, La.
4. Description: A tiny little town north of New Orleans. Pop: 2500 Town was settled by Indians and we are know for our beer, spring water, and town garage sale. People actually come from all over for the garage sale!8 -
Hi everyone. Completed the last video so will be updating my points soon. Have another 90 minute training session tonight so will be adding those minutes in addition to the 10 I got with the last video. Everyone have a wonderful day!6
-
I Completed the last video this morning too. Yee Haa. I am so excited about that. Have a great day everyone1

I am done my exercise for the day. I won't be able to to do any more. I am tired. lol
I bought new shoes yesterday & I wanted to try them outside. It was raining, snowing, sleeting. At least it wasn't too windy. My body is sore today. I have hardly exercised since the beginning of December. This has been a good week, now to rest and relax. Maybe I will watch a movie & take a nap after I get my cleaning done.
(still can't record my oranges... oh and we are in 2nd place!!!)3
