Clearly I miss you already.....oh and a challenge!

I can't stop posting or commenting or loving or crying at sad posts....*sigh*....the question remains:  Can Drazil survive 8 days without my blog and blog friends?  At this point I don't know.  I do NOT have a laptop to take with me....but I may have time to hop on for a quick post to tell you I'm alive.  I will be calling Jenny so she can let you know if I'm alive too.

NOW ON TO A CHALLENGE!

Joey mentioned that we should do a challenge before the BOOBS convention...and I agree.  Joey is uber busy right now so I'll host it if you guys want to participate!  (Hope that's okay Joey!)  And no - you do not have to be going to BOOBS to participate.  I talked to Jenny about it this morning and in order for the most people to be involved, we decided it's not going to be another weight loss challenge....sort of.

Some are at goal, some have very few to lose, some have much to lose so sometimes it can come off in bigger amounts than some with only a little left to lose and most of our challenges are about weight.

This challenge is about working out and exercise.  I know there are many of you that can completely lose weight without exercising and that's good but exercise isn't all about weight loss.  It's about a stress reliever, endorphins being released and general heart, BP, etc health.  Soooo with that being said....

I'm going to keep it simple. 

It's going to be the most workouts (must be at least 20 minutes/heart rate must be up and it must be a calculated workout).  I realize cleaning and raking and such is exercise but I'd like that to just be daily life.  I'd like a workout to count for this challenge if it's something you plan and go do if you know what I mean.

Keep a log - and the person with the most workouts wins a prize!

The other part will be this.  The most miles walked/ran.  I know some of you do Zumba or boxing or something that doesn't constitute miles so you'll have to enter the number of workout part only.  Those of you who walk or run, keep track of that workout and keep track of the amount of miles you go.

Keep a log - and the person with the most miles wins a prize!

In order to give everyone the chance to log in and check blogs and such I'd like this to start on Friday, August the 20th and end on Friday, September the 24th!  That's 5 exact weeks - 35 short days!

Let me know if you want to sign up and I'll keep a list of competitors.  I may ask for updates and post them randomly so all of you with competitive spirits can be motivated along the way so keep your logs current!

Be sure to let your followers know about the challenge since I'm sure all of your followers don't follow me so they won't know about it unless you tell them.

Here's the challenge picture...please post on your blog.  And yes - I'm fully aware had Joey made up this picture it'd be smoking awesome and we'd all be proud to put it on our blogs.  You'll just have to deal with this and suck it up...it's the best I got.  You're lucky I didn't just put up a picture of a Care Bear and call it good.

NOW WHO'S IN????????????
