Dear.......

Dear Bill and Lori,

Yes, there is free parking available in downtown Seattle at 4:30 am. There's also a decent supply of meth at a bargain price. You might consider purchasing some with all that money you're saving on parking. You'll need it to keep up your phenomenal pace. I figure it's either meth or Scientology that will keep you going at this pace. Of the two, I'm for the meth. ; )

Michelle,
I too have that "why the hell am I killing myself if I'm not going to lose some serious poundage?!" moment every once in a while. But then I'll come across an episode of Dr Phil, as I'm channel surfing and I'll see one of those 1500 pound people who need the fire department to get them to the bathroom. Then in tears, they explain that they don't even go to the bathroom anymore because their weight would crush the toilet to dust. After that I just quietly start packing my gym bag....

Reese and Leo,
What can I say? You've never looked better! And you've had such a tough year - Leo, losing Giselle and all. And you Reese, your husband going off with that floozy! You show'em girl!

I hear the Hoopster might join you for the climb. Very nice! Have you guys started doing stairs yet? No elevator ride of shame for this team! Speaking of teams - do you have a team name yet?

Ok troops, stay strong! We're heading toward the final stretch!

Colleen
