Yesterday, it was such a joy to read @bocasdelbob report on his day. Riding a mountaiin bike in the mountains and then time at the school with children gives him peace of mind.
@pears734 shared about working out after a day in school.
@craigo3154 glowed about his daughter and then, about his skills building activities with his drone-quad.
Others checked in just because they enjoy the sense of community.
@pribud wished us all a happy good night. @trixey1 is always a welcoming presence
Thanks to everyone who feels at home here on the UAC team.

Exercised?: Yes. Walked 5 Km in 39mins (hills).
Calories?: Yes.
Tracked?: Yes.
OK weather today. Not much else to report (except I changed the camera in the quad - Hopefully clearer picture now. Soldering skills are getting better).
Looking forward to dinner tomorrow (wife's birthday).

I am a day late responding to "You're Only One Workout Away from a Good Mood".
My best buddy and I have been walking partners for the last 25 years. Last Christmas, my buddy took the saying "You're Only One Walk Away from a Good Mood", put it on a canvas and gave this to me as my Christmas gift. So perfect, so meaningful and so true.
I need to walk every day to feel good and be in a better place. If I miss more than 2 days in a row, my mood takes a hit.

Today is my 22nd birthday It had a bit of a shaky start but so far so good It's also the day I took my physical test for the army
My results were amazing in 3/4
Required longjump was 160CM / 5Feet 3inches I got 213CM / 7Feet
Required Power Throw was 450CM / 14'9feet I ended up with 525CM / 17Feet
Deadlift required was 160Pounds I went up the max which was 235
Sadly where I failed was the shuttle runs which I had to do 38 20Meter dashes sadly only got to 22 as I've never worked on sprints or dashes it winded me compared to my usual hiking
With all that being said I will continue doing my best improving everyday until I pass.10 -
@SimonsChange 3/4 could you imagine that a year ago!! So now you know have to train and we want to hear your progress on those shuttle runs!! Celebrate the rest of the birthday in style!!4

Well I'm out for this month. Can you believe it...I was doing great until I came down with this stupid cold. I have been non-stop craving carbs so my calories have been over. I didn't want to adjust my calories because I'm sick....feels like I'm cheating. But I will continue to check in and stay accountable for the remainder of the month. I am going to make this a habit. Otherwise I've been doing good with exercise - miles and miles of walking everyday and yoga at night with my kitten7

Beautiful kitty! @carlsoda. Sorry to hear you're full of cold. So awful being ill. Well done for sticking with the group.
@SimonsChange - you must be so proud at what you have accomplished. Just reading those results are amazing! Happy birthday too...xx
@craigo3154 - Happy birthday to your wife for tomorrow. Hope you both have a lovely dinner.....xx
@RangerRickL - Thank you...xx
Well today started off okay. Had my run in the morning, visited a mate later in the day, didn't get back until 3pm and still needed to take the dogs.
Rain finally stopped around teatime so what should have been a hour walk turned into 3, lol. It was so dark on the way home, glad I've got a torch on my phone. Stuck to the trails on the way back but you look ahead and all you can see is darkness! Very creepy and they seem to go on forever in endless blackness too!
Was glad to get back to civilisation and finally got home at 8:30
So a late snack to get my calories up, showered and logging in for night.
It's now 10pm here, so sweet dreams to all. Hope you all have had a good day today...Hugs...xx4 -
@SimonsChange happy birthday! Wishing you a wonderful, healthy, happy, exciting and fun year ahead! All the twos, twenty two!
Please don't be disappointed. We all know you will get there. And selfishly for us, we're happy if it means we keep you for a little while longer!
Exercise yes, calories probably yes but tracking not finished and going to bed now!
Keep going everyone!3 -
(it's nearly midnight. It's been a long day. Tomorrow's going to be a hard day too just to explain if that sounded lazy. Exhausted rather than lazy!)2

Out of the contest but still committed to keeping up with the challenge!3 -
@carlsoda we always had a gray tiger kitty like that when I was growing up. Still have a soft spot for them.
Horrible day at work. Customer quality issue we can't figure out. My husband, who doesn't feel well, snapped at me when I got home. I decided to take our team advice. Grabbed a protein bar instead of making dinner and burned up the last of the daylight on my bike. I feel better but unfortunately it didn't solve any of the other problems of the world.Tracked and calories fine

My sweetie is a competitive cross country skier--par for the course, since he's a Norwegian dude, I did the first part of my workout with him--riding my bike, as he rollerskied. It was crisp, chilly, and lovely out.
Exercise: bike riding and circuit training >20 minutes
Calories: stayed under goal
Tracking: yes, I tracked everything
Keep up the good work, everyone! I love reading your entries.

@SimonsChange Happy Birthday!!!!
Exercise? Yes, 46 minutes of strength training and a 1.3 mile run
Calories? Yes
Tracking? Yes
I attended a Chili cook-off with a friend today. Fortunately, the samples were small, but I still ate quite a bit. I had a very good workout this morning, so I had plenty of calories to eat guilt-free. It was a fun timeWe also walked to and from the building that hosted the event (30 minutes), so we had a little additional exercise as well.
