I just brought this part and my beginning measurements over from EP. I have the pics done but I won't post those until the end of the challenge. I'm glad that we have a place to finish the challenge.

"Well this is the second time I've done this challenge. I lost around 12lbs last year and haven't gained that back and I'm looking at another 10-15lbs lost to be my goal this time around.

I have City Chase coming up at the end of May and I don't want to be sucking wind horribly while doing this day long race as I was last year. Before having my daughter 18 months ago, I was quite athletic with running, kickboxing, yoga and would like to get back to that. I want to feel good in my skin again.

My goals:

1) Lose 10-15lbs
2) Increase fitness level and endurance
3) Practice Ashtanga yoga at least once a week
4) Work on personal relationships.

So this will be my new training log. I have to get my pics and measurements done, I won't be posting my beginning pics til the end though.
