Almost There

  • by

Great week, team.  We lost 19 lbs.  With 19 members, that means, on average, we all shared a great week.  We’ve also lost more than 5 lbs. per person for a total of 86 lbs, putting us in 4th place for total lbs lost per team.  This week has sped by so don’t forget to send your weighins tomorrow, and then next week is our last week.   I would love to see us break that 100 lb mark.  I am positive we can do it.

Mike is well on his way.  He has his goal in mind for next week, so he pushed up our work out yesterday to twice a day.  We started with a swim at 6:45 am.  We met Lisa there doing her own swim workout.  Then we came back at 6:00 for another 45 minutes of biking and running last night. Today we were back again for our regular workout with Lisa.  What I discovered was that if I work out too much 1) I don’t sleep very well and 2) my legs wear out and I don’t run very well when Lisa wants me to.

Tomorrow we swim early in the morning, then I think I will lay off the bike for a couple days.  It seems to be taking a toll on my knees.  But don’t worry, I’ll be back at it, Monday or Tuesday.  Next Saturday, the 27th, besides being the end of the fitness challenge, is the day of the mini-triathalon.  Can’t wait, I think.  If you want to participate, let Jason Crisp know at the cc.  It’s a great way to see how far you’ve come. Hope to see you there.
