katsujinkin said: "Hey, that's a really cool site! I'm going to sign up too! You were right, it's already motivating me to get moving!"

Tater Tot said: "Great Motivational Tool...signed up today w/ the P.C. Hope everyone keeps talking about it and sticks with it."

Heather said: "Sweet! Even our president runs every day for fitness and health, so it's good that he is interested in getting our nation moving."

helplesscase said: "Thats cool...."

UniqueMystique said: "[url]http://www.presidentschallenge.org/index.aspx[/url]"

UniqueMystique said: "Hehehe! I signed up too, Holly. Besides....look through the site....the current president didn't start the program....so people shouldn't 'not' take the challenge because of Bush! I don't agree with everything he says and does either....and I'm from his hometown stomping grounds."

UniqueMystique said: "Holly....did you get signed up?"

UniqueMystique said: "1120 points as of 4-29-05 How are you doing, Holly?"

UniqueMystique said: "Ha Ha Ha!!!! Nothing like a little competition to motivate. ;)"

UniqueMystique said: "I'm at 1514 points cuz I slacked off this weekend. I'm gonna catch up to you, Holly....and then SURPASS you!!!! :p"

UniqueMystique said: "Boo-Yah???? Are you sure you aren't secretly from Louisiana? Yep...you do have an advantage...but that doesn't mean that I can't catch up. :p I love a challenge. ;)"

UniqueMystique said: "2255 so far today....I'm kicking in some extra cardio this evening, Holly. ;) Where are you at?"

UniqueMystique said: "2516...I'm getting closer! ;)"

UniqueMystique said: "4065!!! Am I close yet, Holly? :D"

UniqueMystique said: "That's ok, Holly. I don't mind that you've slipped up some. Hehehehe!!!!! It'll let Ms. Brender catch up to you more easily. :p I'm having to log my stuff down on paper until I get my computer back.....:D"

UniqueMystique said: "7,035!!!!!"

UniqueMystique said: "8051!!!!!! As of last night. ;)"

UniqueMystique said: "OK....I'm a bit irked! I went to log in my activities for the last month and the danged site will only allow me to add my activities for the last 14 days!!!! Grrrrrr!!!! Anyhow...with doing that...my points are 13,872. So with a guesstimate on the other two weeks it wouldn't allow me to post for....about 19,000. Because I can only post for the last 2 weeks....I won't complete all 6 stars....so no prizes for me. :("

UniqueMystique said: "Yep...it's a good motivational tool. I'm going to restart it on the first of the month since it gipped me this last time. ;)"

spectrachic311 said: "You guys are amazing! Way to earn those stickers. I remember doing the President's challenge things in middle school. I remember that being THE most horrible week of gym class ever. Something like "Britt's flexed arm hang time: 0.01 sec, Britt's time to run 3/4 mile: 12:34, etc." Boy howdy, if they could see me now...I can run a mile in like, 5 or 6 minutes now. It's pretty cool that they have a program that gets people motivated to work out."

Holly said: "I love that!!! I'm going to sign up!! I'll print it out when I get to school. I'm a sucker for anything having to do with politics...I was this close to being a politcal science major. I wanted to be one of those talking heads on Fox. Then I came to realize I wanted to get a real job. I don't agree with everything the President does, but I still would love to meet him and give him a big hug!! (Ok, let the comments roll on in.) Anyway, it will be fun taking part in his challenge. Yes, I will exercise for a sticker....if it's from the president. ;)"

Holly said: "Yup, I signed up yesterday (Wednesday). I printed out the activity log, so I can enter in my time every week or so online. I can almost see my sticker now...oh wait...that's the pamphlet I printed out on my desk. ;)"

Holly said: "I put in my exercise starting on Monday (even though I printed the log out on Wednesday) because the weeks are listed Monday through Sunday and I like to start out with a full week. Tuesday was my rest day and I haven't exercised yet today (Saturday), although I plan to. In short, Points = 1683. Circuit training ladies, circuit training. (On Monday, Wendesday, and Friday...Thursday - aerobics) :)"

Holly said: "Oh really? Hmmmm....we'll just see about that little missy! ;) I have an unfair advantage...I went for a hellacious hike this weekend. I may have blisters, but I also have points. Boo-Yah! :cool:"

Holly said: "Great, challenges are good! No, I've been an Oregonian all my life. I got that from my fiance...he lived in Georgia when he was in the army. :)"

Holly said: "As of today (and I've already done my exercise for the day - 5/04)...3,156 points. I think you'll catch up with me this weekend. I'm going to my Dad's and it is supposed to be rainy on Sunday and Monday (I'll be there Friday through Monday). So, I'm sure he will have me outside the first two days, but once the weather turns nasty he thinks I'm 3 again and I'll get a cold from being out in it. :rolleyes: So, I'll probably go shopping or do wedding planning inside with my step mom the last two days. No, I won't count that as exercise. :) Although when the two of us get together our mouths get a workout from talking all the time and not letting poor old Dad get a word in edge wise. :p"

Holly said: "OK, UM, I just want you to know that I COULD lie, but I'm not going to do that. I've slipped a little, but I plan on getting out of this funk as of, oh, right now. :D Oh, what? You wanted points? 3,906 I can feel you gloating. :rolleyes:"

Holly said: "Well, 4,303 points now. I started on my foodmover last Thursday, so I was concentrating on just diet for a while there. I think I've got that done, so I'm back on the exercise track as well now. :)"

Holly said: "*laughing* Yes, that's the heck of it! :)"

Holly said: "5/22 total = 5,456 points Slowly, but surely. ;)"

Holly said: "Well, as of 5/25, points = 6,599. Sigh. I haven't exercised yet today...but plan to! ;)"

Holly said: "5/27 total = 7,012 points UM is kicking by pudgy little behind! :) I'm going to use the approaching finals week as my excuse. After that, I'll have to think of a new one. And yes...I'm just kidding about the excuse part...I don't want to hear anyone tell me there's no good excuse for not exercising. ;)"

iheartbings said: "I Joined!! i really want that sticker! ! ! good luck to the rest of you!"

whateverhobb said: "Cool thanks that is worth checking out."

Ms.Brender said: "Dang! You girls are tearing it up. I've just signed up, too! Yeehaw!"

Ms.Brender said: "[QUOTE=UniqueMystique]That's ok, Holly. I don't mind that you've slipped up some. Hehehehe!!!!! It'll let Ms. Brender catch up to you more easily. :p I'm having to log my stuff down on paper until I get my computer back.....:D[/QUOTE] Don't worry, Holly! I'm no where close to being competition for you guys. I mean you have to exercise to actually earn points, right? ;)"

Scarlett said: "Wait what site is this??? If it is cool and will get me motivated to go to the gym I want to be a part of it!"

Scarlett said: "I missed this thread somehow. I joined, this will definately get me in the gym if I have to log it in everytime! Will be going tomorrow! :D"
