The thick wooden front gate of the monastery opens slowly. At first nobody seems to notice but than one of the acolytes walks over and pulls the gate open in one swift movement. A man falls into the yard. He was leaning against the gate. He looks pretty bruised, the shield he carries with him is split and the sword has seen better days. He seems to be barely conscious. Quickly the acolyte calls for help. The man is picked up and brought to a bed so can rest. The other acolytes will see what they make of him after a weeks up. But he already seems familiar... Hello everybody. I'm still figuring out what to do during the the next challenge. But wanted to get back in. So, in the next two days, i will come up with something.

im a lucky girl! just won an 8 week online training by wonderful shauna reid, author of "dietgirl" and her coach julia who rocks triathlons at age 50! the plan starts on june 12 and lasts for 8 weeks. plus im starting for my second 10k race on the night of juli 26th. so my main goal is to rock this race: do every training of the plan and finish the race in under 1:28h! ( thats the time of my first, unprepared, 10k in mai) also ive come back to my instrument, the cello. (i used to be a very good cellist in my twenties) right now i teach young people and practise when i feel like it. thats kinda sad. my goal is to join an orchestra here in berlin which is quite professional. at the moment im simply not good enough. so my second goal is to invest more of my energy to listening to recordings and practising the cello. 2. practise the cello for an hour every. single. day. listen to cello recordings at least twice a week to keep motivated! although i work parttime, i need to structure my days so i get everything done and stay as productive as possible. i did a planning goal last challenge with the adventurers and it helped me a lot. so im just going to repeat it so it sticks as a new habit. 3. plan the following day every night in your online calendar. make specific entries at what time youll walk the dog, train, cook, work, meet friends etc. although ive been good at losing weight for the last weeks i want to add a diet goal as well. I have 3 meals a day, additional shake or snack when training. i will commit to eating 2 slices of wholeweat toast with peanutbutter and honey in the morning. for lunch i will have 500g of yoghurt with seeds and berries. dinner will be a salad with protein like chicken, fish or eggs. im allowed to drink 1 glass of wine in the evening. if i fail the dietgoal for the day there wont be wine. ( great motivation ) 4. eat according to plan every day. lose at least 3 kg. since my 10k training is also online with forums and whatnot and i have i personal blog to tend to i wont be able to be as active on the forums as i used to. will hang out with you as much as i can though.. bear with me, please! will start my challenge tomorrow and get to the 10k goal when the course starts. cheers, fearless
