    CHALLENGE #1

    I did the 2.5K Frostbite Footrace by walking around the block during breaks at work. It felt good to get up from behind my desk and get some fresh air!

    I was off to a slow start this week after an all nighter Sunday kind of took the wham out of my whammy. But the rains have finally stopped, so I plan to get a couple more hours of sleep and then wake Tara up and hit the trail. I'll put her through the "Mush & Ho" paces to see how she'll do as the lead dog, but I think we better keep looking! :D
    The plan is still to finish the Iditarod Dare but I thought it would be a good idea to get Challenge #1 done ASAP.

    I am giving up ice cream to lighten my load. I've gained more weight eating ice cream over the last few years than anything else, so maybe giving it up will make my sled lighter! So far I am managing to avoid it this week! :)

    FYI TEAM: Be sure to label Challenge #1 and Challenge #3 when posting and make sure it is a separate post from the rest. MissionEnforcer is being real picky about It! :p

    Re-posting so @MissionEnforcer can see it!

    Challenge 2 done! I did the TOTAL BODY BEGINNER WORKOUT. Even though I'm not a beginner I added this workout to my regularly scheduled lifting plan for the day. Total strength minutes Monday 52!

    Yup that pretty much looks like our team! Although we need a bigger sled for the dogs that would rather be pulled than do the pulling.

    I CHOSE THE 5k FOOTRACE.
    I RAN ON THE PATH AROUND TOWN (SLOWLY, TURTLE LIKE, BUT RAN NEVERTHELESS) IN THE WIND AND LIGHT DRIZZLE, WHILE POTTER STAYED IN THE WARM, DRY HOUSE HOGGING MY AFGHAN.

    Challenge 1
    I did the 10.49 miles.
    It was a combination of indoor and outdoor. I did 9 miles of it outdoors as I was walking with my dogs, who are my very favorite people in the world, with the exception of my husband. It's good for their health and for mine. Plus atired dog is a good dog. Then I did 4 miles inside with my BFF at school. And I've gotten in well over 5 miles between the treadmill and track.

    It's been snowing since 7am and it doesn't look like it's quitting anytime soon!! So my dogs are ready to go to Alaska. They looked like "snow dogs" when they came in from playing in the snow. Wish I could have taken a picture of them but didn't ha e my phone on my while I was shoveling. Not the way I like to get minutes in but it's a dirty job and it has to be done.

    Challenge 2 would have been much easier if a 100 lb. kuvasz named Forte the Destroyer hadn't decided that it would be the absolute best time to lay on his mama.

    Challenge 2 done. Broke it up into 2 days. But it's done. Along with snow shoveling!!!

    Day 2 NO CHOCOLATE!! Just barely almost gave in but then reminded myself I don't really need it. (Yes I lied to myself!! Who doesn't need chocolate!)

    Next question team. I am confused on the minutes that you are supposed to add if you are active when you watch a video, were do you put those? Do you add those to your daily one time?

    yes you just add the active minutes in as your regular minutes on the spreadsheet. If you do an outdoor walk for 45 minutes and watch 15 minutes of videos while you do hand weights or jog in place etc, than post 60 minutes for your day!

    @hawkins410 love the sled team. Noticed that there are no lazy labs in the line up! So far I have left the Chips behind and it is working ok. I need to get on the video tomorrow. Keep strong and focused everybody!!
