For the Love of Fitness... And Disney! - February Exercise Challenge

[Dentam]

Welcome to the February Exercise Challenge!



If you’re returning, we’re excited to have you back! If you’re new, welcome to the team! This is how it works:

Each person chooses a time goal, and posts minutes toward that goal as they exercise. (You can post every day, or just whenever you can.) All sorts of movement counts – walking, running, yoga, Zumba, whatever…outside, at the gym, or right at home! You can set a monthly goal that means something to you, or calculate your goal based on a target number of minutes per day. Since February has 29 days, here are some popular conversions:

10 minutes/day = 290
15 minutes/day = 435
20 minutes/day = 580
30 minutes/day = 870

Part of the fun of our Disney challenge is color changing, so this post will be updated with individual and team color changes as we make more and more progress:

Blue - 10%
Orange -25%
Purple - 50%
Pink - 75%
Red - 90%
Green - 100%

The challenge officially starts on February 1st, but if you don’t find this thread until later in the month, you’re still welcome to join! Just post your goal and I’ll add you to the list. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions, and check out old threads to see what’s been going on.

Have a great month everyone!

[MochaDrinker]

Count me in for 400 minutes again

 

[galaxygirl76]

I'm in for 1150 minutes

 

[Dentam]

I'll set my goal at 800 minutes for this month!

 

[Tasha228]

Please add me for 500 this month.

 

[sophy1996]

I'm in for 900.

 

[scdak]

I am in for 1000 ...........and I am GOING to make it this month! I have a week's vacation but not a long one like January so even though the month is short, I can push myself to meet my goal!

 

[LizardQueen8]

In for 1200 minutes .

 

[DVCFan1994]

I'm in for 1750 minutes which is about an hour a day. I have two long training runs left before running the GSC. So I expect a strong start to the month, the trick will be keeping my minutes up at the end of the month!

 

[SarahDisney]

Put me down for 1500 minutes, please!

Thanks for hosting, @Dentam!

 

[Ladyfish77]

Since I didn't quite make my goal in January (which I partially blame with being sick for over a week) I will shoot for
580 for February!

 

[glss1/2fll]

I'm going for 1200 this month. Less than January's goal, but I think manageable for February. Thanks for hosting, Dentam!

 

[courtneybeth]

I have the RNR New Orleans Half Marathon race at the end of the month, which will add 180 minutes to my total because I am a slow runner.

I'm going to set the bar high for this month and do.... 2000 minutes. Lots of training starts tomorrow!

 

[knkmom]

I'd like to join in if that's ok! I'm going for 870 for February!!

 

[BumbleB]

I am going to double my goal for February and see how that goes. 870 for me!

 

[Saphire5742]

I'd love to join. Need to get motivated to get back to exercising and this will help keep me accountable.
Put me down for 580

 

[PollyannaMom]

Since I beat my goal last month, I'm rounding up to an even 500 this time. I've got a vacation in there, but it should be one with plenty of walking, so I'm hoping to stay on track.

to the new folks,

and for hosting, Dentam!!

 

[Saphire5742]

Got in my 20 minutes for today.

 

[MochaDrinker]
