@bagley920:

I'm in! This will be the hardest and yet most rewarding thing I have possibly ever done. I want to show my son, though he won't be old enough to remember, that anything can be accomplished with hard work. Training/getting myself into shape will be very difficult with a newborn but I am going to give it my best shot! So true Bags, glad your on board! Great inspiration right there!

BTW, are you gonna do this in your jeans?? You would be a hero

Gutted not to make it guys, but I will follow this extremely closely, as I will certainly require some training tips.

Official "warm up" in San Francisco right Mega?

regarding fireman carry dont worry about me boys I promise I wont weigh more then 230# i am already down 30# got a ways to go. I will not let the team or myself down!

[Megatron1505]

Thanks guys, I think the HWDC event may be after this one, and as Jeff rightly pointed out it will not be as "full on", as we are doing ours in denim. Of course, if anyone feels like doing the double…...

[DougNg]

I will probably be doing this in my Vulcans

[Seul]

I will have a beer and watch the video.

[zhivago]

That's exactly what I was looking for from you Seul

I'm not a guy that goes directly on to the scale in the morning after waking up, but the last time i did, i finally reached my maximum (220lbs.) and actually was shocked, since I never have been there.

now it's all about controlling my eating habits and getting back on going to the gym 2-3times a week again (started with everything on monday!), so that I should end up with my personal dream weight, which is around 176-187lbs. in a few months!
also for me, a look into the mirror is way more important than a number on the scale…

so the best of luck to the both of us...and brooks, Z, Monday & Gav as well

maybe we should start posting into the "in fitness and in health" thread, so that we all going to watch out on eachother to keep us motivated in the long run!?

no exactly a short read but offers some pretty good insight. I think?
