    TEAM ORANGE! I suggest our personal Team Challenge, starting TODAY (Saturday) to Wednesday.

    UNDER on sodium
    AT LEAST 10 cups water
    Burn at least 300 calories (unless it's your rest day, which mine will be Sunday - don't push too hard since we all really do need our rest, yes, Donne, even I take a rest day once a week :wink: )
    Try to NOT eat back all your exercise cals (that is my personal challenge but you are welcome to join me on it!)

    For all the other Teams, you're welcome to join the TOC (Team Orange Challenge)

    OH, and for all those on-line terms - APMROFLMBO (almost peed myself rolling on floor laughing my butt off) :laugh:

    I think I'm going to take the week to work on ME. I feel such pressure to meet the goals that I cut corners, maybe fudge a little (i.e. "Yeah, I'd say that's about 2 glasses of water), and just feel the need to please. I know that's part of being held accountable, but I think until I can hold myself accountable, I'll dig myself a deeper hole and lie more. I'll still post this week, but I'm not setting public goals. I have plans in my head, and I'm going to stick to them. I'm definitely including the 10 minutes of personal time. Even if I can just sit in my car, alone, for 10 minutes...that's something I need!

    Hey BB's! So I did the Spartan Race. I finished, but that was the most grueling 4 miles I've ever done!! I have battlescars...some bruises and scrapes on my legs. I'm a little sore, including my behind, from going down all the mud slides...LOL. It was definitely waaaaay more intense than the Warrior Dash (piece of cake compared to SR). I dragged a cynder block, carried a bucket 3/4 full of pebbles/rocks (both w/some uphill sections), had to do 90 burpees (luckily not all at the same time)...it was the consequence of not being able to complete an obstacle. The terrain itself was an obstacle to overcome. It was super muddy and slick. One obstacle was a super steep, muddy, uphill climb at one point. This definitely pushed my body and mind to the limit. Luckily, I did the race with my brother. We stuck together and he definitely helped push me to keep going. There is also more of a sense of teamwork in this race as A LOT of people help each other through the obstacles. I was most impressed with that! I may not have been able to complete 3 or 4 out of the 12 or so obstacles, but I did the majority of them and I crossed the FINISH LINE...granted I was EXHAUSTED...but I crossed it!! THAT was the main goal I set for myself!! So I'm proud of that!! :smile:

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Today will be a rest day for me. And depending on how my body feels the next couple of days, it may just be some light exercise, like walking for me. :wink:
