I've been gone w/the holidays, what is this?!?!?!
Re: C25K
ahhh, gotcha.
I'm getting back on the treadmill today.
Jarrett is doing the Scale Back Alabama (lose at least 10 lbs in 10 weeks). I really don't think he needs to lose any but he seems to think he is developing a sympathy bump, lol. We did it last year and he lost 13 lbs!
So I at least will go walking with him after he starts this program. I have been using excuse after excuse to not exercise, but now maybe this will help me get some in before I get too huge to move!
What is this that you speak of??!

That is the basic website, but I don't think it's been updated yet for '09. Pretty much you get a team of 4 people, weigh in at a designated site in your area, and in 10 weeks weigh out. If everyone on your team loses 10 lbs, you are eligible for prizes (state-wide). Maybe you could check with some of the weigh in sites from last year to see if they are doing it again?
It's free too! The hospital is doing seperate prizes for employees this year, and the grand prize is free benefits for a year, which would be great for us!
My work does this every year and I just signed up for the first time. I'm excited!
