Welcome to the June 2024 exercise thread! Shamelessly following off of PollyannaMom's May 2024 mothers thread, let's be inspired by Father's Day this month and celebrate Disney Dads.

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

Each person chooses a time goal and posts minutes towards that goal as they exercise. You can post daily or just catch up when you can. You decide what movement counts towards your goal - which can be a nice round total for the month, a specific number that means something to you, or a calculation based on a target number of minutes per day. Since June has 30 days, here are some common conversions:

15 minutes/day = 450
20 minutes/day = 600
30 minutes/day = 900
45 minutes/day = 1350
1 hour/day = 1800

One of the special motivations of our Disney challenge is color changing! Page one will be updated with individual and team color changes as we make more and more progress:

10% - Bob Parr Blue
25% - Mufasa Orange
50% - Chief Powhatan Purple
75% - Great Prince of the Forest Pink
90% - James Red
100% - Geppetto Green

We’re officially starting this challenge on June 1, but if you don’t find the thread until later in the month, you’re still welcome to join! There's no better time than the present to start toward your goals!! Just post your goal and I’ll add you to the list. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions and to check out old threads to see what’s been going on.

Team:

Elizabeth Smith - 700/700
MsHershey - 1380/1155

PollyannaMom - 575/600
ShannyMcB - 360/350
sophy1996 - 1110/1200
Twilight Sparkle - 2605/1800

Total: 6730/5805 115.9%

Congratulations to Twilight Sparkle, PollyannaMom, me, and the TEAM for turning Bob Parr Blue!

Today's Disney Dad is Fa Zhou, the father of Mulan. Although she is outside of society's expectations, he loves her, and while he is at times harsh, in the end, he expresses the love and pride he feels: "The greatest gift and honor is having you for a daughter." Here's an article why he is "The Best Disney Parent."
 
Another orange dad is Marlin, the father to Nemo in Finding Nemo and Finding Dory. Poor Marlin is overprotective of Nemo, having lost his wife and eggs in a barracuda attack. But he overcomes his fears to save Nemo and become the father that he needs. Here's An Ode to Marlin, the Greatest Dad in the Seven Seas.

Finding Nemo features another popular father-son duo: Crush and his son Squirt. Dude, Crush is a much more laid-back parent! He so totally rocks!
