December Exercise Challenge

[VernRDH]

So once again, 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.

I am going for 1000 this month. Shooting for less, hoping for more!

Who's with me?

[tiberius]

I'm in at 1200, for me that will be a challenge!

 

[jayna22]

Please sign me up for 1000 minutes. I've already done 75 today! That puts me at 75/1000.
Thanks!
Jana

 

[ZerasPride]

I would love to join!

I will shoot for 900 minutes. I'm a wimp but need to step it up this month for sure. I did 30 minutes of a firm cardio work out this morning so I'm at 30/900. Thanks!

 

[gatorphipps]

Can I join? I would LOVE to join in! I do post on the events/competition but saw this and thought it would be fun!

A little about me:
I run...alot, bike and swim. I also dance. I am a therapist for children and perform with a local company! Have 2 wonderful DDs and a wonderful DH. Anyway.......
my goal will be in minutes this month, but I may change that to miles if I see that works better...is that OK? I am going to shoot low this month b/c 12/8 I am running a marathon. SO....I will not be running as much after that. I expect to train for some Tris for 08 though...so we will see.

GOAL: 1000 min

I ran 90 minutes with a friend this morning so:
90/1000
Is that right?

 

[Geekerbell]

Okay, I'll try it once more. Let's shoot for 600.

Thanks so much for doing this again!

 

[tiberius]

I am in for today at 143/1200.

Welcome to our little corner of the DIS, Christa! I am familiar with your postings on other WISH threads.

 

[DisneyBeagle]

Do you mind if I join? I just started exercising midway through November, so I need motivation to keep going. This sounds like the perfect thing for me.

I am going to aim for 900 minutes. I am currently at 30/900.

Thanks!

Everybody is in so far!!!

Welcome jayna22, DisneyBeagle and gatorphipps!!! Glad to have you here.

I have been slacking as of late as I am battling a humdinger of a cold. But I ran sprints today and feel pretty good. I *thought* I could run an 8mph sprint, but alas, 7 is about as fast as my short stubby legs will carry me!! I am trying to improve my speed gradually, hoping to be able to run my next 5k in the spring in under 30 minutes. I can do it, just want to be able to do so without having a heart attack at the finish!!!

 

[MIdanceMom]

May I join? I would like a goal of 1000 minutes. So far I am at 170/1000. Thanks for doing this.
Beth

 

[delilah]

My goal for the month will be 1230, of which I have done 75/1230 so far. Thank you.

 

[gatorphipps]

Add another 60 to me. I had 2 dancing shows and rehearsal. I may have picked up more, but I will err on the low side (err...that is very country! )

150/1000

 

[JudyS]

I'm in for 1000 minutes! I'm at 44/1000 so far.

I'm also hoping to do some low-intensity activity throughout each day, given the recent evidence that sitting for long periods is bad for one's health. However, that will be harder to track, so I'm not going to count it towards my 1000 minute goal.

Thanks for doing this, Vern!

 

[Otto's Doll]

40/1400 for me so far!

 

[MickeyMagic]

I'd love to join in, too. Just starting out (again ), so I will shoot for 600.

30/600

 

[sk8ingmom]

Lots going on this month!
I'll try for 750.

 

[mom2cookies]

OK i'm just starting so i'll commit to 600 minutes. Today being monday, i'll start today and put down my minutes after i'm done. If i don't post something at least every other day, somebody PLEASE send me a PM and tell me to get busy doing something!

OK i did it!
30/600

 

[donac]

I want to join. Put me down for 750 minutes. I have not finished a challenge in about 6 months.

SO far this month I am at 55/750


Thanks for running this.
