February Exercise Challenge-Love Your Heart!!!

[VernRDH]

Sorry folks, I don't know what happened. I posted this up Thurs nite, but it did not post:confused3 . I did not get a chance to get over here yesterday, as we had horrible weather and my boss had to leave town at 6am for Florida as his dad had a stroke. So pretty stressful. Thankfully, my exercise is my therapy and helps me cope with the stress!!!

Same as always, here's how it works. Post up how much exercise you are committed to doing for this month. It can be minutes, miles whatever. The milestones are as follows:

10% blue
25% green
50% purple
75% orange
90% red
100% silver
Over 100% gold

When you post up your numbers, please do so in this format: 100/1200 (minutes done/goal). It is really helpful if I don't have to do any math.

In addition, for anyone who is interested, we will be doing a 2008 challenge-how many minutes/miles for the entire year. I will keep track of your monthly totals and track the year long ones as well. So as an added incentive, post up how much exercise you want to do in '08. Remember this is all for fun and to motivate us a little more to get off the couch and get moving. It shouldn't stress you out!!!


I'm in for 1000 minutes-this is a short month.

Happy Exercising Everyone!!!

Thanks for setting this up again. :goodvibes I was looking for it yesterday.

Last month my goal was 600 minutes and I surpassed it. :woohoo: So this month I will set a goal of 750 minutes. :cool1: Again I apologize for not being color coordinated.

February goal 750 minutes
minutes done so far
75/750

[Lesli54]

Put me down for 400 minutes. Got to start somewhere.::MickeyMo ::MickeyMo

[WDWLVR]

Since I surpassed my 600 minutes last month I'm going for 750 minutes this month.

I'm 40/750 after my 40 minutes of shoveling snow yesterday!

[delilah]

My goal for the month is 1305, and so far, I am at 30/1305. Last night, we had a school program, so, my workout was shortened due to the late hour we arrived home from school.

[tmfranlk]

It's a short month, but I'm going to try for the same goal as Jan....1400 minutes. Yesterday was a good start with 2 hours of snow shovelling. :eek: So, that makes me 120/1400.....1560/18000

[chirurgeon]

Kim here. My goal for the month is 950. Yesterday was 50/950.

[r3ngels]

I am up for the challenge again this month...

Count me in for 1000 for the month and 12000 for the year...

So far I am 120/1000 for the month and 1375/12000 for the year...

Good luck to everyone!

VernRDH-- thanks for doing this it really helps to motivate me... I hope you have a better week next week!

[Simba's Mom]

Thanks for doing this again! I'm in for 725 minutes this month.

[JOANNEL]

Ok, sign me up 1500 for Feb. I went to an aerobaton this morning so I am 120/1500. I won a stability ball, it was fun, but my back is sore. But it felt good to exercise in the morning. Now on to housework,


Have a great Saturday.

[donac]

Sign me up for 750

Thanks for doing this.

[JJ&JSMOM]

I'm in again this month. I passed my goal last month so I'll try 1100 minutes for the month. I'm already at 70/1100 - taking a break for just today. Thanks again.

[perfectmatch300]

I'm here! I'm going for 1500 min for Feb!

So far I am at 180/1500! :cheer2:

2/1 - dance class - 120 min.
2/2 - bicycle - 60 min.

I feel like I am off to a good start this month. I haven't felt much like exercising because my legs really hurt after my workout this past Wed., but I really do feel better after getting out there the past 2 days. Now, my workout on Thurs to finish off my goal for last month.....well let's just say that was a totally different story! It was a rather painful experience, but still important to keep moving through my soreness and I am already feeling the good results.

Vern, thanks for taking on the challenge again. Your hard work is much appreciated!

[BigMama]

going for another 1000 this month

friday 60
saturday60

total 120/1000

thank you!

[rkandmjsmommy]

I am new to the exercise challenge, so I am going to start off small with 500 minutes, I just finished 45 minutes so I am 45/500, GO ME!!!!!!!!!!!

[VernRDH]

Updated!!!

Welcome to those who are new, welcome back to my old friends :hug:

This dog walking thing is working out really well for me. Comes out to about 30-40 minutes of extra exercise each day, with a walk in the am and pm. Now if only I could get the dog to stop whining when I go downstairs to the treadmill, I'd have something.

[tmfranlk]

Note to self...buy bigger dog for walking. ;) I was reminded today of just how much work building a snowman is. Man I was puffing trying to roll that big old ball of snow. Add to that a rather active snowball fight and pulling DD around the yard on the sled, and I'm in for 45 today. 165/1400....1605/18000

[taraswan]

I'm going to try again with the 700 minutes for this month. Hope I do better this month. :-)

[JudyS]

Even though this is a short month, I am really enjoying exercising, so I think I will crank it up a little. My goal for this month is 1200 minutes. I've done 100 so far this month and I did 1151 in January, so I'm at 100/1200 for the month and 1251/12000 for the year.

Updated!!!

You need a treadmill for the dog, like on the Jetsons! :rotfl:

My cats don't encourage me to exercise at all. In fact, when I start my aerobics, they usually run off to another room. Maybe they don't like my taste in music! :rotfl2:

:wishthirty

[Geekerbell]

I've skipped out on this challenge the last couple of months, and when I was doing it, i never met my goal.
But I'm determined this time! I'm signed up for a 5K walk in April, so I do need to get out there and start.

I'm starting small with 450 minutes this month.

Thank you so much, Vern! :hug:

[sk8ingmom]

Thanks for tracking again this month!

I'm in for 1000.

Actually Judy, we are considering a treadmill for the dog. He is a working/herding breed and needs lots of exercise, but the winters here can be tough so it would be easy for him to do the treadmill while I am. A few problems though. 1) buying another treadmill can be costly 2)the doge will not go down the stairs to the basement (afraid) 3) the basement is the cats "safe haven" dog free zone. But it is a thought.

[Simba's Mom]

89 minutes the first couple days, so I'm already over 10% of the way-89/725.

[delilah]

I would like to report 75/1305. Thank you.

[BigMama]

180/1000 thank you!:flower3:

I don't have any ideas for the other problems, though!

:wishthirty

[Otto's Doll]

I am in too ~ 1400 for the month. So far it's 115/1400 for me.

[WDWLVR]

[austin&pipermom]

I am new to this so I will start with 850. So far 80/850.

[knovak]

I am just starting out with exercising so put me down for 360. Tomorrow let the sweating begin!:goodvibes

[BigMama]

60 for today 240/1000 thank you!:flower3:

[mom2cookies]

For those just starting or those who did not quite reach their goal from last month.... DON"T GIVE UP! All of those adages you've heard like " Rome wasn't built in a day" " Every journey begins with 1 step" etc really can help keep this " journey" in perspective. So just look for any opportunity to move. It'll add up!
My dog becomes hypnotized watching my feet when i am on the treadmill. LOL he eventually falls asleep.

today's time 45 minutes

120/750

[lynnielou]

Good evening all,

I have shoveled for 2 hours today. The first hour was before going to work, had to get the "slushy/slurpy" from the end of the driveway gone before even thinking about getting out to the drive to go to work. This snow was the heaviest, just like trying to shovel a large snocone if you will. Managed to get to work, only 3 minutes tardy!. My husband picked me up from work and then I came home, changed clothes and shoveled some more, again heavy stuff. This is the first time this year that I have done only the side of the driveway that matters, no sense shoveling this real heavy stuff for the other half, right? It is still snowing quite heavily this evening, seems the wind is out of the northeast and the snow is coming in off the lake. Tomorrow morning may be a repeat of this morning, shoveling before getting to work. Who knows I may need to set the alarm for 4 am instead of 5. :scared1:

After dinner I did some weight work.

February looks like this:

345/1000.

[Otto's Doll]

[r3ngels]

Updating... 305/1000 for the month and 1570/12000 for the year.

After walking to the bank yesterday afternoon ( after posting) and do the regular 45 minutes this morning brings my new total to

300/750

I don't mean to toot my own horn but I am really surprised how much this thread has helped me stay motivated. To see my goal " written down" and see my progress towards it is so encouraging.

[BigMama]

ONLY 40 TODAY 400/1000 THANK YOU!:flower3:

[Simba's Mom]

Another 127 minutes this week, so now I'm 216/725. Yay, I'm over 25% of the way there!

[lynnielou]

hi,

Exericse today was another morning and afternoon of snow shoveling.

I got up to shovel for 45 minutes at 4:15 am. We got a good 6" of lake effect snow out of the storm, which has sense moved on.

I got home from work after being picked up by DH, stating "we still have not been plowed on our street, do you believe it?" We headed home to our neighborhood and turned down our street -- yes the plow had been by and fortunately with DH's good driving, we got through the end of the driveway and we able to get into the garage. (the driveway was pristine after my morning shoveling). My next task was to shovel for 1 hour in order to get a one shovel width for our sidewalk at the back of the house. This was some heavy snow and it had not been shoveled since the storm had started. The bottom layer of this was the heavy slurpee/slushy stuff.

February looks like this:

450/1000

Amanda in buffalo??? how much snow did you get?

The forecast is calling for a couple of inches friday night into saturday and the high temperature on Sunday is 18 degrees! Brr, Brr!!!

Take care everyone and let's all keep moving. :yay:

[austin&pipermom]

JOANNEL-can you recheck your numbers for me? I had you at 295, then at 250 then 310. I think you should be at 410, but maybe I misread something?:confused3 Just want to make sure you get all the credit for your hard work!!!!

Dog walking continues to be good, now if only the weather would cooperate. We are having snow today and tomorrow is supposed to get rather chilly. So we do take shorter walks than we would if the weather were nicer. I have been lax on my running, but am getting back to it on Monday. So I should be able to get my numbers up.

Everyone is doing well-keep up the good work!!!:thumbsup2

[Simba's Mom]

Another 66 minutes the last couple days, so I'm now 282 minutes. SInce my work hours recently changed, I've got more time to exercise than I thought I would when the month began, so I'm upping my goal. I decided to go for 810 total minutes instead of 725. I'm still over 25%, nothing else has changed, but now I'm 282/810.

[jlawall]

250/1200................:cool1:

[chirurgeon]

by a 10 year old. I took my nieces to see The Lion King last Sunday. To thank me, the youngest one decided to share her cold with me. I've been down since Wednesday. Minumum of 120 minutes to try and make up.

Kim

[lynnielou]

Good evening all --

Those of you that are coming up short on your minutes, due to illness or otherwise, well I encourage you to get back on track as soon as possible, do not give up totally.

February looks like this for me at this point,

Friday: 50 minutes shoveling and 35 minutes with weights.
Saturday: 60 minutes on the treadmill, 3.2 miles, with 541 calories burned.

i am at 560/1500. Off to sit in the sun.

Have a great day.

[Tent Camping Mom]

Biking and walking - added for Fri. and Sat.:

480/1200 --------- 1890/15500

[JJ&JSMOM]

Updated thru today - 507/1100 ; 1572/12000.

I've had a nagging cold this month as well - of course it depends upon how you feel- but I kept exercising but instead of running I walked. Sometimes it helps just do something better then nothing so you don't get out of the habit. But of course it all depends on how you're feeling. Keep up the good work everyone.

[Otto's Doll]

[perfectmatch300]

I'm at the halfway point! 750/1500! :banana: :banana: :banana:

I'm not sure if I'm doing better this month because I'm checking in here more often, or if I'm checking in more often because I'm doing more, but the two sure do seem to go together! Thenks, Vern, for keeping up the thread, and thanks to all of you for being here! :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

[mikamah]

WATP for 45 min on fri and sat, and 30 min on sun and today for 330/750. This is very motivating for me. If I do 45 min tomorrow, I'm halfway to my goal.

[Simba's Mom]

Another 110 minutes the last few days, so now I'm 392/810.

[tmfranlk]

Well, I'm slowly reclaiming some of the min I lost in my "days off". 30 min on the bike last night, plus a bonus 30 min of walking yesterday afternoon when DD fell asleep on the way to the mall. So, since she wasn't going to the play area, I walked while we waited for DH to get off of work. Would have been longer if I hadn't realized that I locked the keys in the trunk. :headache: Thankfully, the local police were happy to help. Still need to step it up if I'm going to make my goal, though. 555/1400....1995/18000

[JOANNEL]

Well I didn't get to the gym early enough for step so I did 30 mins of weights and 30 of pilates. So 875/1500.

Have a great friday.
