Leap Year Challenge - Who's In??

(Not quite) Half of Me w/pics
Well, my tagline is "Half of me by 43" and while I had hoped to be done by my 43rd birthday (today) and I didn't quite make it. I still have 35 lbs to go; but, I am VERY happy with what I have acheived to date! And I am certain that I still will officially acheive the "half" while I am still 43. It will still count, right?…

Anyone tried Kickboxing? Suggestions for other Cross-trainin
I am thinking of trying something totally different this fall/winter for a cross-train sport. Anyone tried Kickboxing? If so, does it produce a good burn? Is it hard on your knees? If not, do you have any other suggestions? Thanks!
