Jul 31 - Aug 5

Monday - Corey and the kids are up in Park City this week, I'm coming and going, sleeping at home with Owen and Daniel who are a little sick, plus they sleep better in their beds. So no workout today since I'm here on my own with the kiddies.
Tuesday - nothing. Watched "The Marshall Plan", I like it. Just keeping myself vegan indoctrinated. :)
Wednesday - Mel came home with me tonight cause she has a flute lesson tomorrow afternoon. So after we got home it was still light outside so I took a quick 2 mile run, felt good.
Thursday - With Mel here at home I was able to go on a jog, yay! Over to Sleepy Hollow, it only took me 9 minutes to get there from the church, to get all the way to the bottom to the stream! I think I'll be taking my summer jogs/walks down here a lot now. Mt. Jordan road has been good to me and you were very convenient, but this is prettier.
Friday - nothing. With big kids in Park City and me left here with Owen and Daniel, I've been just been focusing on blogging in my free time.
Saturday - Nothing (actually I can't remember... reporting here a week later...) but looking at the calendar, I know I woke up early to go help the fam in Park City clean up and get ready to come home.  And we had date night today since last night was still Park City, so I'm guessing it was a busy day and I didn't get it in.

Summer Health Challenge -
My summer health challenge is over, and the last weight low that I hit 126.6 (7/27). I haven't been here for a long time. After Hyrum I was able to keep my weight in a 124-127 window. right now I'm in a 128-131 window. The lowest I've ever recorded was in December of 2002 after I was sick for a week, I was 121 which blew my mind.

BUT... According to current standards (according to livestrong), a 5-foot 1-inch woman's ideal weight ranges from 95 to 115 pounds
That means, even though we're two challenges later, I'm still not done yet! And this really will be a challenge cause I'd have to get lower than I've EVER BEEN BEFORE. Lowest recorded in my adult history is 121 one time at the gym, which means I was prob 119 if you take off a pound for clothes and a pound for shoes!

Is it really possible?
