    AUGUST CHALLENGE NEWS UPDATE! The 100 mile team challenge can be done anyhow you like run, jog, walk, bike, swim. Doesn't matter. IT DOES Need to be extra. So if you typically bike 10 miles a day anything above that would count. Remember it's all about extra and pushing more! Keep up the great work.

    Shame I haven't been paying attention because I'm usually up on news, what are they rioting over there?

    Why did I always assume you was a brit :indifferent: ..... LOL! Moving on .....

    The whole of SE of London is basically being burgled and smashed up for no real reason to be honest.
    It started off that a police officer shot a black guy for no reason so all the black london residents started rioting and then everyone followed suit. Then it turns out the guy was shot because actually HE had pulled a gun on the officer - the real reason isnt clear but basically all the thugs and youths of today and robbing jewellery stores and electrical stores and theres nothing anyone can do about it. It's gone on for four days and has spread further out now. Up to the midlands, central london, the whole of the south of the UK - the rioters have actually forgotten why theyre there and have said on TV ludacris claims like "We're getting our tax back" or because "the government doesnt respect them" LOL last night they actually started breaking into peoples houses and cars ... basically no one is safe and you cant go anywhere anymore! I said to my fella it's like the film 28 days later :laugh: :angry:

    How is everybody doing with this weeks challenges?

    I dnt need anybody to inform me when calories are under... what has been drank... ect.

    I just need to know how many miles you have completed so far and that you did the daily exercise. :o)

    If everybody would still like to commented the other accomplishements tho then I have nothing against it, it helps the other team know how everybody else is doing.

    WOW!! I was thinking of you today and asked my BF (who is a news junkie, what was going on!) He explained and I said, well where is their National Guards? Where is their military? He was like "I don't know". I can't imagine, no wonder you were trying to calculate "beating a looter" on your exercise tracker!!!

    i'm good for exercises. though i didn't get the mile in today, it was raining so i'm doing it tomorrow. i'll keep ya posted on how that goes.
    I'm also working on a low cal brownie recipe. if it works out i'll share. this is my first attempt at creating my own recipe so i really hope it works out!
    chocolate is my last weakness. it used to be icecream but i can't consume dairy for the next year or two so that was easy enough to overcome. yay for brownies.

    water- drank
    mile- ran
    swimmer presses- done
    calories- under

    woooohoooo!!!

    BTW I usually do jazzercise or Jillian Michaels videos for my cardio but to get these extra miles in this week and the extra 5 I decided to start the c25k app that you can get on your phone. I just started, and of course this was day 1, but it has you run/brisk walk in intervals and tells you have far you have gone and your fastest time and I think it's pretty cool so I thought I would share :)

    Total mileage for today: 1.86

    OK - I will post my own recipe, but I have to share one I found on the boards and I use ALL THE TIME. I cook linguine (broken in 1/2) and mix it in, and this recipe is delicious!
