Day 7 Rest! You deserve it!

Week Two Weekly Team Challenge

Each team must coordinate a 100 mile walk, run, jog outside of their normal running jogging. You will to
volunteer how much you can walk. If the team does accomplish the 100 mile challenge they will be
rewarded with 5 bonus point. In addition to the 100 mile walk each team member must submit their
favorite recipe to the group forum, along with the nutritional value. If someone submits your favorite
you must find another recipe to submit.

Who would like to coordinate the 100 mile challenge? If the entire team does 5 extra miles in this week, we will have no problem BEATING THE CRAP out of this challenge!

Go Globo Gym!!!

***Remember***

Chat is open to the team. I strongly encourage everyone to join so we can all get to know each other better.

    Um...oh hell! What muscles I have are aching already!

    I don't have time to coordinate the walk this week because I'm prepping for finals, but I can commit to at least 5 extra miles this week. I'll need it to destress anyway!

    Thanks for the vid links, btw. It helps us newbies figure out what the hell everyone is talking about!

    Have a great week!

    Thanks all! Let's show WMR what Team Globo Gym is all about! I'm sure that Week 3 will be even more intense, but I KNOW we wont have any issues beating the crap out of Week 2!

    Mandy, please let me know what you need to coordinate the Team challenge of 100 Miles. I will put a spreadsheet together and send it over your way to help keep track of it all.

    Thanks!
