    well, managed to make up yeserdays run/walk goal - 3.3 miles, before the heat got me. it was 106 here when i got off of work! crazy!!!! also finished todays cruch/situp goal, and my usual p90x routine! :) woot! woot!

    needless to say im way way way under calories after all of that :) but am now cramping up , which is kinda sucky. time for a powerade zero and maybe something else to help ease some of that.

    and on my 7th liter of water, with most likely another on the way :)

    everyone's doing awesome! woot! woot!

    ^ showoff ;) (smiley thing wouldnt' work)

    Trying to earn a glass of wine...unfortunately all of those crunches only got me 43 calories and a cramp in my side. So much for the wine.

    I'm sorry. I indulged in a glass of wine last night after burning a bunch of calories. The alcohol hit me really hard.

    Ok, 50 crunches done! Water down! Diary will be under calories. Technically I walked 2 miles but I did not do any other workout so not sure if that counts as my mile. I'll do it again this week sometime now that I've found the 'Walk away the pounds' video and can do it at home. I can't get out of the house to walk right now (too hot for one thing).

    Nice job everyone!!! We are rockin this challenge!!

    Water done, and under calories done! Going to do the crunches tomorrow along with the up-and-downs.
    Speaking of up-and-downs, I've always called them burpees, but where the heck does that name come from??? haha

    From Gary:

    We are going to announce a modification later today regarding some important changes in the team scoring. After much thought and consideration we've decided to move towards a percentage based challenge. These changes are to accomodate those teams who have lost team members. The % will make this fair across the board. I want to especially thank all of those who have helped with this process especially jitteryspork. She has modified my old sheet and created a new point sheet. I will be emailing it later today once we're sure its set. Thank you for your understanding I believe this will provide for better results and make all teams equal. Thanks! UNLEASH THE BEAST WITHIN!

    Got those ups and downs out of the way. Had to do in two reps. Did 25 when I got up and was very excited when I came downstairs and saw it was only a total of 40 so i finished them up! My cat thought I had finally really lost my mind.

    I finished the up downs with no problem. It was doing the Thursday mini challenge that did me in. 416 push-ups! I did 103 regular ones and the rest on the wall. I think there should be an adjustment for old age. But then I felt about 10 years older when I was through.

    Sass you could be my soul mate. I exercise for the wine too. In fact we plan our fall vacations around various wine regions in the midwest and beyond.

    I did not work out tonight unfortunately; felt like my body needed a rest day; I've been fighting a sore back and don't want to push it. I will get the up downs in before Sunday as well as the other challenges though (need to look and see what they are - I forgot). I am under calories and all of my water is down the hatch.

    Keep up the good work everyone!! We're all doing great! :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
