Enjoy

Yesterday was a horrible, no good, very bad day. I did everything but the exercise.

Back in the saddle today and determined!!!

I am finally back in civilization, where cell phones work all the time and internet conections are reliable.

I completed each days challenges last week and am good for Monday and Tuesday of this week also.

I am back logging food in MFP rather than in a note book, but last week was always under calories. I wish I knew how many calories i burned each day.... My fitness watch showed about 1200 each day, could be right as we were moving from sun up to sun down. My tan is wonderful, and I have too many bug bites to count!

Water was adequately consumed each and every day, plus almost an extra quart of some type of liquid to replace all the sweat.

Hope I am in good standing still. Where do we go to find out how the various teams did?

I will do a minimum of 3 miles each day
Monday did 3 miles, did challenge, completed water, and under for calories
Tuesday did 4 miles, did challenge, completed water, and right on for calories.

( had the Peachy Kale Protein smoothie for breakfast.
