Yes, I have done this challenge for the last three years but my reason is simple, it is the first time these challengers have done something so grueling in a long time or even at all. The way this challenge works is simple, the challenger has to stay in time with the beat and the leader up front. If they lose beat or on the wrong foot they have 3 seconds to correct themselves, if they cannot correct themselves after 3 seconds they are out.
This year however was my longest time. Everyone stayed in until about 35 minutes. They did not want to give up and one did give it her all. In the end though Mary Schiefelbein, from the red team, was the winner, stepping for an amazing 48 minutes at 184 beats per minute. Congrats to all!
In the weigh-in this week I had a first, everyone lost weight. Yes, in the past there were always 1 or 2 people that would gain weight at the weigh-in but not Saturday everyone came in with a loss. In the end John Schreck lost the most at 10.8 pounds. Below are the totals and how the leader board looks now.
