Yippee

 

[hmack]

me?

37 minutes of mostly riding an exercise bike during lunch break workout.

962/1200

I may not meet my personal goal this month, but every minute helps the team goal!

Man!

I don't see my update post that I swear I typed out this morning. did I forget to hit "submit reply"? Is it due to the connection problems we're having at home? who knows?

Who knows. but I assure you, it referenced changing colors, gave a team update, contained a quote from Mulan and chatted on about how awesome this team is.

Apologies team. I'll put something up as soon as I get home. But I can tell you we had a new inferno red and two new wow-za greens!!

Carry on and ignore the crazy host, who is obviously losing her mind.

Another 60 minute on the elyptical this morning. 841/900 It's so close!!!

November -

If no one says, "hey, I want to host November" by midnight tonight, I'll start the November thread tomorrow so we can start signing up!

You said to keep checking in so I hope these minutes will help out the "family"
30 min run yesterday
45 min elliptical last night
(I overslept this morning but have 7 miles planned for tomorrow)

Now that I look at the calendar WE CAN REACH OUR GOAL.
Three more days of opportunity.

Catching up my totals! We had our annual Halloween party on Saturday and it was exhausting! 21 kids and they were LOUD! Lol

One more week of craziness and then things settle down and I can get back on track.

I'm at 1018/1350 - don't thing I'll make my goal this month but I'll come close!

1090/900

25 minutes of HIIT today.

 

[hmack]

65 minutes for me today

A combination of a good walk, and a bit of strenght and stretch to end the day.

1027/1200 - unsure about making my goal but every bit helps!

 

[SarahDisney]

27 minutes pilates

1083/1000

3 days left to get in as much exercise as we can (safely, of course)!
I know that as a team we can get to 75% - or at least get in some good workouts trying!

 

[hmack]

Updated!

I'm back after yesterday's lack of update weirdness. Sorry about that.

We have SO much celebrating to do. I wish we could meet up and have a big old party for all of you awesome folks. And, ofcourse we would serve plenty of fruits and veggies, no dole whips, giant carrot cake cookies from the Writer's Stop, or caramel popcorn or mickey-shaped rice-krispie treats here. (I think I need to go eat breakfast after I write this post, I seem to have a problem.)

Anyway...

Mighty congratulations to the following:
Dizzyr - for being a great-gray-go-getter!

SlightlyocdDisneyfan & 2TxAgs - for turning Inferno RED!

And an extra helping of awesome for SarahDisney & glss1/2fll for being WOWZA-GREEN!!!


TEAM UPDate: We are currently 66.49%
minutes away from meeting goal: 1,627


It's going to be tight, but "A single grain of rice can tip the scale" - from Mulan

Most of my exercise this week has been raking leaves and walking. Next month it will be too cold and probably snowy to be outside, so it will be the treadmill.
Thanks for your help this month!

 

[SlightlyocdDisneyfan]

60 minutes more today - took a nice walk down to Starbucks (iced coffee, no sweetener - so zero damage in my mind!) and back. I made it! 901/900

I hope to add a little more this week, but we are expecting our first big rain on Friday. Yep.. Halloween will be a wet one this year!

Thank you all for the support, inspiration, and encouragement -especially to you, hmack, for hosting!

 

[SarahDisney]

70 minute walk/run today - puts me at 1153/1000

If my math is correct (which it probably isn't), we've got less than 1500 to go as a team - that's only 500 a day - we can do it!

 

[MRS AR]

92 min running
1628/1440
We're gonna make it

1376/1400

Close, close, close! 2 walks of 2mi each today. I'm in no way prepared for a half at the end of November, but my race partner just injured her foot, so I expect we'll be walking most of it anyway. I can do that....

Looking forward to joining y'all on the November thread....

 

[SlightlyocdDisneyfan]

Just ran 20 minutes with one of my girls on my Girls on the Run team! Brings me up to 921/900.

 

[hmack]

54 minutes today for me.

I got up this morning and did a 5 a.m. run with my headlamp and did a short lunch break walk.

I LOVE the optomism of this family. I cannot wait to update us tomorrow morning.

Seriously, I may have trouble sleeping, I'm so excited!

TWO MORE DAYS! TWO MORE DAYS!

Have you seen our first post? It is literally a thing of beauty, with all of those dynamic colors. Whoo-Hoo!

I turned Inferno Red

Congratulations to our newest members of WOWZA- Wish -Green!

Did you know that as a team we logged in six hundred and thirty-seven minutes yesterday?? 637!!!

Team Update:
69.82%
minutes to meet our goal - 990

It's still mightly close and is going to take a huge family effort to get there in just TWO DAYS! But with our "can do" attitude, we will do it.

I Don't Care How Far. Somehow I'll be strong. I know every mile will be worth my while - from I Can Go the Distance, Hercules.

*Check out the November thread, it's all set up and just waiting for you to join in.
