CHALLENGE Challenge - Grit (Page 9)

Thanks Mel!

Here is a great glute exercise http://www.shapefit.com/butt-exercises-glute-kickbacks.html If you follow the links there's a bunch of other exercises too, and most of them can be done at home with no equipment. Hope this helps

Hey there Grit!

how's everyone doing?

Wow, quiet night here! If I weren't in the midst of moving I'd certainly be here padding the thread.

I did a trainer ride today, but it doesn't count toward my goals so I did some ab work too. My back has been achy, I'm hoping the ab stuff will counteract it. I spent 11.5 hours at my new apartment painting, spackling, removing caulk, re-caulking, scraping off old paint, installing fixtures and cleaning. I am beat! This was my longest day yet, and I even did some packing before I left. 

Hope everyone had a great day!

Morning team

I just finished my morning run, it was nice with a little snow falling. But that snow over the ice was not as fun ... it was really slippy. 

What is everyone up to today? 

Have a great day, Go Grit Go

well, team - I got 5 in the hard way today, I do mean the hard way!  but, I got 'r done

I've actually had to work today!  the horror!

Hey team, my goals are on hold until my move is at least semi-complete. I had hoped for a swim or run today but the movers bumped up the time several hours so I'm in full packing mode. Even though I'll have way more time in the second half of the month, I likely won't make the 30% cut off

we understand K!

good luck with the move!

No worry, we unnderstand that you already have a lot of stuff to do. Good luck with everything

Morning everyone

I just finished my morning run, well winter is here for sure. It was like minus 10F with the wind today ...

What is everyone up to today? 

We all have to kick it up a notch because this is the cutoff week, 30% or we're out.  I will personally raise two of my goals I guess since I am about to hit 50% in two of them. I will think about it for the next couple of days.

Have a great one everyone! 

Go Grit Go!!!

Morning team!

Robert,  you should get bonus points for running in those temps!

Morning all.

Today is bike day. There is a lot going on but lunch break looks promising.

Krisitn, happy Moving day, we all understand.

I have a question. There is no way for me to be at 30 % until Monday for swimming. I can only swim on Sunday and Monday (the place is closed on Saturday- who knew?).  So, since I won't be at 30% for that sport, will I be dropped?

That's a slugger question. I'll be at 30% for running, and may make it for my strength goal, but i'll only be around 25% for swimming due to my move. There's just no way I can spare hours to go to the pool. I wonder if we get dropped from the whole challenge or just from that goal? Anyone know for sure?

I just sent Slugger a PM asking her to check in on these questions

BTW Slugger, when you stop by, how do you want us to handle the changes for our goals for the month? Only edit the spreadsheet, post here, send you a PM?

Thank you in advance

Hey team, how's everyone doing?

Evening team!

Just got back from the pool, now heading to bed

Go Grit Go, lets push team we have to get the workout in.

LazyMarathoner - 2009-01-14 9:43 PM Hey team. How is everyone tonight? The move is DONE, well at least my stuff is all piled in Brooklyn. Now I have to unpack it all but the pressure is somewhat off. I'm hoping to get a workout in tomorrow

WTG K!

You must be relieved... Take it easy and enjoy what ever. Moving is soul wrecking.

Nice, I guess you must be really happy that this part is over

Morning team

I just got back from my morning run, -35F with the wind is a bit cold to be honest I really thought about the treadmill today, but I just hate it.

What is everyone up to today?

Okie, I will do so. I will probably send you a PM and post here too. I am waiting after the week end because I am heading out of town and I don't know if the hotel as a pool or not neither for the gym. So I might just run this week end.
