Good morning all, what a busy weekend! Whew...and this week is looking to be just as crazy. We are interviewing for a new superintendent at our school and I'm heading it all up, so I'll be running around like crazy all week. We are also suppose to be getting a snow/rain mix (yuck x( ) which I hope turns out to be nothing so I don't have to reschedule everything.
I still have my workouts planned for the week, may not be as much because the time constraints, but I will get them in, that's for sure.
I hope everyone has a great day and week!

Hi Amelia - It's been around the upper 30's low 40's lately, but we are getting a snow/ice/rain mix this afternoon into tomorrow, so who knows ;-)
My classes are going really well, we are still getting huge numbers for class and having a blast. I go until the end of April because the weather gets nice and they are all outside doing something instead. I just love teaching. I'm going to get certified for Turbo Kick in May, so I will be expanding my classes hopefully more this fall.

Amelia: Enjoy your weekend *get away* Sounds like fun
I think we have lost a few people along the way. I like to finish things I start--even if it has a few bumps in the road. I will keep going with another running challenge for myself. I may go with 16 weeks and up my mileage. We shall see.
Enjoy your Monday everyone

Happy St. Paddy's day to all,
Just checking in quickly to say "hi" before workout this AM.
Still on the fence about what I want to do today = think I'll just go look at my DVD's and let one call out to me.
This is week 12 for me too - after checking out a few other Checkin threads, it looks like most that started here have either been checking in on multiple threads or meandered to them recently, huh?
Main point is we are trying to be accountable and keeping up the challenge of doing the best we can !

Hey there everyone. Didn't get up this morning - had a kicking 5YO join me in bed @ 3am. Will try to get another 20min on the elliptical tonight just to get back in the groove.
I would like to check in SOMEWHERE after this challenge is "officially" over (I think I'm on week 11). If this group disbands I may go over to the BFL challenge since that's what I'm planning next.
Anyway, really busy today so I've gotta scoot. TTYL!

Back and a bit tired. Did 4DS HIS w/C&B.
The step was a bit "hard", I could feel my chest after the blasts, but made it through and enjoyed the weightwork.
Marcia - sounds like it will definitely be a busy week for you ! But seems that you are truly motivated to get your workouts in - good deal there. May help take some of the load off to exercise with all that you have to do at work this week.
Amelia - how'd your workout go? The ankle hold up for you? Good luck on finals - what an exciting time for you ! Will you be looking for work in your field or are you a SAHM for now?
Kath - You have done so well on this challenge ! Are you following any type of running plan or training for any races?
Andrea - Hope you get your TM workout in today. You going to do the BFL workout as well as the eating plan?
Well, done with the oatmeal/PB concoction I made for my mid AM snack. Sure was hungry and this hit the spot. Time to hit the shower and try to get something accomplished today since I've been lounging lately

Kath - thanks for the website - pulled up a training program. Would really love to do a 10K but am feeling like I should get into running a little more. This should help !
Jacque, I am planning to do the BFL workout in addition to the eating plan. It's not really a whole lot different than a Cathe rotation (at least in the women's version) so I think I can adapt pretty easily. The hardest part will be to quit making excuses and JUST DO IT!!!
I've tried to incorporate some of the food plan concepts today and I've generally felt like I've had a more consistent energy level through the day. Will continue to do that for the rest of the week and see how I feel.
OK, back to work!
