I had a blast Team 3!

Sorry I was veeeery afk this week. We went out of town with some friends and had a blast. We went to the Valley of Fire, which I had never seen before, and it was BEAUTIFUL! a.) Challenge# 1 b.) Week 6 Frostbite footrace c.) Because I went on a long, wonderful hike while camping that fit the required distance. a.)…

Hey all, Finally back from our marvelous camping trip! We got in late Monday evening, which made going to work on Tuesday quite the struggle. I'm so glad we came back to warm weather...I was afraid we'd leave 70 degrees and come back to snow. We did. so. much. hiking. It was fabulous. My fitbit says we walked about 11…

Oh no @Run4theluvofit! I hope you're okay! Managed to squeeze in some time for the videos the past few days, and then woke up this morning super motivated for a hike. It's been so warm and lovely the past few days here! For challenge #3 I decided to spice up my oatmeal the way I used to do with malt-o-meal. I added…

Welcome new team members!! Great to have you. I'm feeling *much* better this week, and am back on the bandwagon. Lifted weights Monday and yesterday, climbed on Tuesday, and did some small bits of cardio in between. I'm going camping this weekend (thank god it's finally somewhat warm enough), so I'll get those challenges…

By some miracle, this weekend was *beautiful* and perfect for some outdoor challenges. Challenge #2 I did the shorter Frostbite challenge by taking walks outside, which were much needed breaks from the pile of work I've been trudging through this week. I usually prefer to walk over running...obviously I know it isn't as…

Hey team! @Loribh0126 Nice work! That's a ton to do in one day @Cheriels82 Oh man, I could never even think of giving up coffee. I'm a tired person by default and I need several coffee sessions a day to get me through, ha. Just to let everyone know, I may not be able to rack up as many miles as usual this week. "That time…

Sorry I didn't post much this week...the homework load is reeeally stacking up, ha. The good new is I did manage to squeeze in time for the challenges and up my daily workout minutes (instead of doing nada during the week then doing everything during the weekend). The water challenge surprised me! The first few days were…

I got my Fitbit Charge 2 in the mail yesterday!! I was actually more impressed by the nice packaging than anything, haha. Anyway, it's awesome. Motivated me to go on a longish walk between homework assignments, which felt great. Of course the night I wear it to bed though is the night that I wake up a bunch of times (15 to…

Woot go team!!!! So proud of us. Welcome @Loribh0126. Glad to have you!

Posting this quickly as I make my way down the mountaim after a nice hike! I'll read through previous comments when I make it home, but I wanted to make sure to share my experiences concerning the challenges! For the food challenge I tried oysters! Thoughts? Yuck. Sooo salty. The sauce covered it up a bit and made the…

Welcome @cocoajax16!! So glad to have you! I've had a pretty slow start to my week in terms of activity. Had a loooong day at school on Monday (didn't get out until 10:30 pm) and then Valentines yesterday. Today I was able lift some weights before diving into my homework. The rest of this week I definitely plan to step it…

@BJerzy I second what everyone else has said--hope things keep going well for you and you'll have time to get back into the challenge when things settle down! Just wanted to jump in and say hi team. I just finished up a delicious breakfast (which was well deserved, because we went climbing this morning), and now I'm about…

The beginning of this week was a slow start for me. I got sick on Sunday (because of that crazy hike), so I wasn't very "with it" on Monday. I did a short climbing session yesterday, which felt good, but I definitely didn't go as long as I would have liked. Today things are back to normal. Did my usual weight lifting…

@shauna30 We hiked up to Lake Blanche, up cottonwood canyon. It was beauuuutiful, but very steep. I'd definitely recommend but not as the first hike you do after you're healed, ha. The stairs challenge should be no problem! I walk up and down stairs all day when I have class.

Heeey all. Remember that one time when I said I wanted to try snowshoeing for the first time? Well, I told my boyfriend the same. What I said was "I want to try snowshoeing." What he apparently heard was, "Hey, if you could take me on literally the hardest, steepest route you can think of for my first time snowshoeing,…

Hey all! Finally have time to be back here and active now that the homework load has lightened for a bit ^-^ I hope everyone who is feeling sick or in recovery mode keeps on making progress toward getting better! My fav snack is also definitely air popped popcorn, though sometimes when I'm feeling like a treat I'll layer…

Just popping in real quick to say sorry for being quiet here and on the spreadsheet. I have a group presentation tomorrow, and we've been rather busy preparing for that. After that silliness is over, I'll be back and I'll log my minutes! I promise I've still been active ^-^

YOU GUYS! This new destination is BEAUTIFUL! As if I need another location to put on my bucket list -_-

WE MADE IT!!! GO TEAM!! Hehe, love the stat update @shauna30. Hope recovery goes smoothly!! I didn't exercise as much as I had wanted yesterday because homework took over, but I still got a good amount of time in. Today will probably be about the same. Ugh, curse group projects. They take so much time! @RunRaineyRun I love…

@change04 is kiiiillling it. It's inspiring! I think I might try and catch up to you with the remaining days I have...it's hard to workout more than an hour on school/work days, but the weekends are a different story >:) @shauna30 I hate winter, so maybe that's the secret ingredient I need!

Nice to meet everyone who posted new introductions!! @skinnyjeanzbound I visited Chicago once, to visit an ex's family, and I have to say that the city was aaawesome. So I agree, at least slightly, with your bias, ha. I wish I had the time to do even more there. And everyone saying they are tempted to get into climbing, DO…

All this talk about RaceAdventure and running makes me miss my track days. I used to run all the time, but stopped for some reason...I've been getting into weight lifting to help my climbing, but I think I want to start incorporating more running so I can get back into that. I always felt so amazing after a good run!…

@Run4theluvofit Hey neighbor! Haha. I hope the snow drove away the awful smog while you were here. The air gets so toxic...it's a major problem, and definitely keeps me from running outside during the winter. But it is a wonderful city! I live in the heart of it, and it's great, especially while looking up at our beautiful…

Welcome Dawn! I agree with @enuf200, do tell us more about this running adventure you are planning!!! And what does the training for that look like? All I had time for yesterday was the deathly arm exercises as well (plus a short walk). I had class until 10 pm, so...no productivity happened after that. Today I'm going rock…

Way to go Tasha! The second video will make you feel like the most uncoordinated person ever, haha. Your audience will love it

Liking the introductions! Nice to know a little more about you all. My name is Sem. I'm a newcomer to this challenge ^-^ I'm a bit younger than some of you--26. I'm currently getting my second bachelors degree in Animation which keeps me VERY busy (plus work part time). My favorite form of exercise is actually rock…

Woo, hi everyone!! Excited to kick some booootay

Hey everyone! I saw several people raving about how awesome this challenge has been in the past, so I thought I'd join. I'm not sure what I need more--the motivation, or these wonderful animal memes, hahaha

I'm in too! I've been out if the country for the past month, and--without regret--definitely fell off the bandwagon in favor of great drinks and food. I get back tomorrow and I'm ready to kick things off in high gear. Height: 5'10" Sw: No idea, but I'd guess 140 Ugw: 120-125 with plenty of muscle Nice to meet you all!
