Lynn Leger I'm still not getting it, sorry! This has already been determined by groups. It's all good if I'm too late to be part of it, I'll keep doing Insanity and my training but just wanted to know if I was part of a group, if so, I don't want to let anyone down. I want to do my part.

Rachel Grimes It's a set group of 10 of us that signed up for it. You can still do them if you want, but it won't count toward our group score (there are several groups across all of MFP doing this challenge, and we're competing against them).

Day 2 done!!!! 96 oz water, under cals, exercises, and 3.85 mile run/jog!!!! WOOOHOOOOO!

Finished Pygmy Challenges for all 6 days (proveded riding 3 miles counted for my walk), under calories all 6 days, drank all water all 6 days.......

Monday rode 3 miles on stationary bike
Tuesday Walked 2.25 miles
Wednesday walked 2.5 miles

I don't know if any of the additional miles help for the pygmy challenges at all. I am 25/50 for my Move Your A$$ challenge :-)

Thanks, Kayla! Those miles DO count! I'll just need your weight as of tomorrow morning, as well. Either here or on the FB page doc will do.
