RTSB CHALLENGE CHECKPOINT 8 GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

[Salliannie]

The fact I was able to post this picture is a miracle. It was a combination of going back
and reading Mem's instructions from long ago and luck
This is a picture my friend Dave took of the bridge last weekend when we were at Chrissy Fields
which is a beach close to the bridge.
It is 944 miles from Neah Bay, Wa to the Golden Gate Bridge so each minute of exercising will
be equal to 7.87 miles.

I love the city! I'm hoping to convince my boss to go to a conference there in 2011.

I'm so close, though, that I really should just make a trip down. Must find some time...

Another picture my friend took the same day as the bridge picture. This one is of the San Francisco skyline standing by the
base of the Golden Gate.

[Salliannie]

Taken the same day. This is what is left of what was called the Sutro Bathes. It was a public bathing
swimming place in the '40's. It is in San Francisco on the ocean side.

These are so pretty they are almost unreal ! Thanks for posting them !!

The ones actually taken by a real normal person are SO special !!

WOW! I just realized the challange is nearly over

What will I do then??? I had hoped to see some changes after all of these weeks....If there have been any, they are minute!

[Stacy]

Quick quick message just to say I hit 120 minutes on the treadmill yesterday... will let you know when I have the next 120 after next Wed.

[daisyjo37]

Made it today! Stacy, you beat me by a hair! Thanks for checking in!

Nelly, I'm enjoying the accountability, too. Maybe we can continue something on a simpler basis just for the fun of reporting in to each other... Anybody else interested?

[nelly]

You KNOW I'm in. To be honest ..... I really didn't want to get left behind, so that was THE motivating factor when I was not wanting to exercise. Well, at least I may be more in a habit by the time we make it to Florida, but I will miss the motivation, that if for sure.

I haven't felt well the past few days. I expect it was extreme lack of sleep. I was feeling VERY dizzy....I got a short nap today and felt better, but when I get like this I have to slow down. I remember one time long long ago, I didn't slow down and on Easter morning, I was SO dizzy I could not sit up to get out of bed......so all my work was for nothing, since I wasn't able to enjoy the day any how.

SO all that to say, I haven't done much yet, but hope I can make it up some how. We now have ANOTHER paper route. Working on quiting the smallest one, which should happen next week .... I HOPE ! Otherwise we have to give 30 day notice before we can quit.
