    Happy Monday kids, hope all of you had a good weekend. Djproulx, how did you make out Sunday? Can't wait for details. Gan3rguy, you needed breaks, I had to read that twice to make sure my older eyes were not crossed. Elizabeepes, how did you do on your run? Oh I love when any of you send pictures of animals. Makes my day. I am still sore from the hike and adding ten more pounds to the weights today was murder. I will certainly take MTR class later. Have a great day kids.

    Finally back home after 2 weeks away. Snowstorm last week cancelled my return flights, so I finally went right from Florida to the Shamrock Marathon in Va this past weekend. The race was run in rain, sleet and gale force winds, so less than half of the 2600 registered runners finished the marathon. My first half of the race went according to plan at 2:04, but ITB and hamstring pain forced me to slow to almost a walking pace, including a stop for ibuprofen at mile 15. I ended up trudging to the finish line in just over 5 hours.

    This week is all about recovery, and regaining my focus on nutrition.

    Have a great day.

    @Djproulx -- It's like the weather was determined to keep you from finishing. But it failed! I'm completely impressed at your grit and determination. Smooth sailing and a great finish time would have been awesome, of course, but you can still be proud of your result. And what a story! :)

    Hello there, I am new around here. I am 45 and a mother of 4 great kids all but one grown or in college. I am on a fitness and diet journey to lose 50lbs. I am finding that it is much harder to lose weight in my 40's. I am counting my calories using the MFP app. I am walking 2 miles most days on lunch and doing 9Round which is a 30 minute kickboxing gym three days per week. The current carrot is a trip to Hawaii May 27th to attend a friends wedding. Looking for ideas and inspiration to keep going and get better.

    @Wayne_Atchley Wow, that's a terrific weight loss in a very short time! Welcome to the group.

    @orionaimee I visited a 9Round booth this weekend at a Fitness expo. It looks like a great workout. Kick boxing and hitting the heavy bag is HARD work and will certainly develop muscle tone!

    "INSANITY MAX:30 Friday Fight: Round 1"=Done! 23:37!

    Very nice! I've been thinking about doing Max 30. Is this the first time you've done this workout series? Can you let us know how you like the program and maybe what you don't like, if anything?

    I'm very interested in your feedback.
