    We have lost Bikermum82, Ashley_7979, & Vicky1506

    Gary had sent me replacements but they opted out because they said they weren't ready for those kind of exercises so... It's just us now

    Ok, done my swimmer weight lifting things. Feeling like I can do better today ... well bootcamp before anyone is up helps. And I've just done my 30 day shred, which I'll try to do again later, to catch up for yesterday. Just need to run my extra mile and then I'm all good!

    Go body rockers GOOOO! We can do it!

    Early Tomorrow (Tuesday) Morning (eastern time) I will be driving 7 hours to TN to see family so I will check my emails when I get there & get all settled in that evening. Just keep all emails coming & I will get you checked in asap :) Thanks!! I just didn't want you to think I had quit too, when you didn't hear from me right away :)

    Please get all the extra miles you can in with your Walking/Jogging?Running!

    Bummer regarding the dropped people.

    My weight has not changed but this week it is going to! I got new running shoes and I feel like I'm floating on air, that has to be worth something right? Congrats to everyone that has had weight loss already in the 1st week. Way to rock it out!!

    Wow - it's like you're me! LOL... I just got new running shoes as well, and am kicking things up a notch. And, I'm another who's scale didn't cooperate this week. (I did lose 5.5" over the last 2 weeks though!) Hoping that the scale catches up with the inches this next week. :ohwell:

    I have added an extra mile every day since Sunday, I am on a roll. Like I said, out of town Fri and Sat so trying to get it all in before that! Put me down for 4 miles so far. I feel like the scale is going to be good to me tomorrow. Now if I could kick my wine at night (when the kids go to bed) I'm sure the weight would come off but my kids might make me crazy!

    I can't work my core, since I have a severe diastasis, so I did squats instead. Hope that is okay.

    As of 10:45 (est) 64.6 miles .. We are doing great!!

    I'm a bit perplexed about the 100 stair climbs, is that like run/jog up a 100 stairs? or a flight of stairs a hundred times? I'm going to do the first ... I only have 3 steps in my house (we all live in bungalows in New Zealand), so if I run up and down those like 34 times??

    I've done 2.5miles today, despite being sick ...got another 'extra' 4 miles planned for Sunday ... will see if I can fit a few extra in tomorrow, bit challenging when everyone is sick!

    Right off to do my exercise challenges and 30 day shred! I'll be going to bootcamp tomorrow even though I'm ill as it's our session at the boxing gym, which I LOVED last time!

    and I'm perplexed by the globe jumps too ... is one set of four jumps one globe jump? i.e. are we doing '200 jumps' (50x4) or just 50 jumps round in a square ... I've done the latter and the thought of having to do that 3 more times is not a pleasant one!!
