    Congrats to our SoTW Jackieb :j:j:T:T

    Well done to our losers and STSers this week and comisserations to our gainers - keep going - it's a mystery as to why some weeks there is no progress even though you've been very good or why other weeks you've not been so good but you get a loss. Keep going and it will all even out eventually.

    1 1/2 hour walk on the beach today.

    Hoping for a dry day tomorrow so I can get a few hours on my bike.

    Hope everyone is enjoying the Bank Holiday weekend.

    Hi jess444,

    Hope the biking was okay as a bit rainy, windy and cold here. Opted for a walk and acquired a big bag of free blackberries, a few elderberries, a tree apple and some beechnuts.

    STS since last Wednesday.

    Me too, jess444, went on a planned bike ride; about 5 miles but under par.

    My ice tray is full of free blackberries and the freezer has loads in too. Expensive to buy in shops!

    For the first time ever of my years of doing the chart no one has posted a loss or a gain so no SoTW this week, however congrats to our SoTM Jackieb :j:j:T:T

    Keep on going everyone - this week it one small step in the marathon.

    If anyone wants to join in the 5lb challenge next month please post below.

    Congrats to the sail team who've won this months challenge. :beer:

    Next months challenge will be US (for the US open) or China (for the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships) so if you want to join the challenge please post below which team you want to be on.

    Here's this weeks chart for the Bog Snorkling Challenge:
    BogSnorkling27Aug_zpsc416007e.jpg

    Well done to everyone taking part - I will keep logging until Sunday and post the final chart next week.

    Next months challenge will be the Iron Man challenge - http://eu.ironman.com/triathlon/events/emea/ironman/wales.aspx

    The competitors have to swim 2.4 miles, cycle 112 miles (yes one hundred and twelve) and then run a marathon - all within 17 hours.

    So your Iron man challenge will be to do 17 hours exercise/walking in the month (or if you wish to do miles you can do 140 miles). Of course as always you can chose to do part of the iron man or just log your exercise and see how you get on.

    Please post below if you want to join the Ironman challenge.

    Thanks fredsnail. :) That was unexpected!

    I had a 0.5lb gain this week. Going to be extra good this week to get over this wee blip. :A
    I'm not too worried though. I'm in this for the long haul.
