Yeah, I was late checking in today – but I had decided b4 I read this to walk to the local grocery market. It was refreshing.

I’ve already driven myself to work, but I guess I can keep from driving anywhere else today (besides home). I’ll add some “gas money” to my PrayFastGive bag and walk to lunch.

Agreed, snup. Since I missed yesterday’s fasting challenged by logging on too late, I’m doing that today. I think this challenge might be one better suited for the weekend. Or perhaps, as we’ve seen with the technology challenges, cutting back by 50%.

The fasting challenge for today is impossible on short notice. First of all I live 20 miles from work. I also get off late at night, so it is not safe to bike through those neighborhoods, even if I was fit enough to do it.
Second, if I checked this in the morning, it would be difficult to figure out where and when to catch the buses. Third, the public transportation agency in my city just cut service by nearly half. Now to get to the bus I have to drive halfway to work.
This isn’t a last minute kind of challenge or a challenge that can be done the same day it is introduced without difficulty. I’m guessing many will fail this one.
