Spectacular Star Wars September Exercise Challenge

[robndani]

40 more minutes for me!!! Good job everyone!

 

[LizardQueen8]

27 minutes running, 33 minutes walking, and even though I usually only count exercise minutes, I'm adding 20 minutes from yesterday because if you're sweating that much while playing laser tag, then clearly you are exercising.

Today's bit of trivia combines Star Wars with the music world. "Weird Al" Yankovic has written two songs involving Star Wars: "Yoda" based on "Lola" by The Kinks, and "The Saga Begins" based on "American Pie" by Don McLean. "The Saga Begins" tells the story of Episode I: The Phantom Menace, and Al wrote it based on Internet rumors. He paid to see a charity pre-screening of the movie to check his lyrics, but the rumors had been so accurate that he made only minor changes to the song.

Adding 50 minutes of hiit cardio and an upper body workout for a total of 215/900.

I heard George Lucas loved 'The Saga Begins'. Not surprising because it is an awesome song. I love me some Weird Al.

I heard that too. And that Don McLean has said that his kids played it so much that sometimes he accidentally sings Al's lyrics when he does "American Pie."

yesterday's total is 74 minutes of walk/jogging and 10 minutes abs workout. Hopefully I can add another 5 minutes to abs today, but they're sore just from the little time yesterday.

Total so far this month: 275/1000

9/4,5,6 - 50 min walking and steam vaccuuming
9/7 - 45 minute walk

It got to 100 degrees again yesterday. It's too hot/humid to run even in the early mornings, so I can't wait til the end of the month and some cooler weather. I'd like to start running again!

Reporting in with my last workout before leaving for WDW . 65 minutes of a snowboard workout, an abs&obliques workout and a butt&thigh workout brings my total to 280/900.

who all turned C-3PO Orange!

As a team, we're only 950 minutes from turning C-3PO Orange. Even with the holiday over and the work week starting, I'll bet this team can do that by the time I update on Wednesday night!

Thanks for checking in. Please don't get discouraged!! It's still really early in the month.

We've been here in WDW since Saturday - no idea how many minutes of walking I've put in so far but let's go with a conservative estimate of 3 hours. Can't remember what my last total was, sorry!

475/100 65 min. Walk Monday

 

[DVCFan1994]

Quick check-in after the long weekend. As predicted all the family requirements kept me from doing a ton of exercise each day. I was very active, all weekend, but for consistencys sake for my own tracking, I am only counting "workout" time. So, I got 85 minutes in over the course of the three days. That was two 20 minute workouts and a 45 minute. I believe that brings me to 335/1000.

About to head out for a run. It is supposed to be 7 miles. But, it is already 80+ here with humidity in the 70% range and still rising. We'll have to see how that goes...
