March 2026 Exercise Thread - Wearin' o' the Disney Green

[PollyannaMom]

Welcome to the March 2026 exercise thread! Our theme this month is St. Patrick's Day / the color green, and we'll be exploring Disney characters that are or wear green.

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 March has 31 days, here are some common conversions:

15 minutes/day = 465
20 minutes/day = 620
30 minutes/day = 930
45 minutes/day = 1395
1 hour/day = 1860

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

We’re officially starting this challenge on March 1st, 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.

I'll aim for 2000 this time. Fun theme! I don't know all of those characters, so I need this! Thanks for hosting us, PollyannaMom!

Opening today with Pascal:

Pascal is a chameleon, the pet/sidekick of Rapunzel in Tangled. He is voiced by the amazing Frank Welker, who you've likely heard in hundreds of roles, from Fred in Scooby-Doo, to Transformers characters, to Curious George. ( https://www.frankwelker.com/ )

This article:

has a lot more about Pascal, including how he came to be with Rapunzel.
