We're ALL Mad Here - March (Hare) Exercise Challenge

[LizardQueen8]

Welcome to the March Exercise Challenge! It's March Madness here with an Alice in Wonderland themed 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:

You choose a time goal (as much or as little as you want), and then you post minutes toward that goal as you exercise. (You can post every day, or just whenever you can.)
All sorts of movement counts! 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 March has 31 days, here are some popular conversions:

10 minutes/day = 310
15 minutes/day = 465
20 minutes/day = 620
30 minutes/day = 930

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.
This month the colors are:

Alice Blue 10%
March Hare Orange 25%
Cheshire Cat Pink 50%
Dormouse Purple 75%
Queen of Hearts Red 90%
Mad Hatter Green 100%

I'll be posting Alice in Wonderland photos and trivia to celebrate our accomplishments and keep us motivated along the way!

The challenge officially starts on March 1, 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.
Good luck everyone and a very merry unbirthday to you!

[MochaDrinker]

I should be able to do some exercise by Wednesday at the latest so put me down for 400

 

[Saphire5742]

Since I surpassed my goal last month I'm going to increase this month to 750.

 

[SarahDisney]

Put me down for 1600 please!

Thanks for hosting, @LizardQueen8!

 

[sophy1996]

I'm in for 1000.

Thanks for hosting, @LizardQueen8! Great theme--which I can say, because it was the idea I was working up for April! (April, A, Alice, Adventures in Exercise, see? I was thinking of Tweedledee and Tweedledum for orange, because they are red and yellow together.)

Oh, Tweedledum and Tweedledee is brilliant for orange - I definitely struggled with that color! Sorry I stepped on your idea, though .

Given your avatar, it's a natural fit for you!

 

[Dentam]

Thanks again for hosting, @LizardQueen8!

I will set my goal at 800 minutes for March.

 

[snels]

Thanks for hosting the March exercise challenge. I will sign up for 1000 minutes. I do a better job of getting on the treadmill when I sign up for your challenges.

 

[dylans mommy]

Thank you for hosting this! I will sign up for 1000 minutes. I have been doing good with working out so I think this will be a good goal.

 

[Tasha228]

I'm in this month for 700 please!

 

[lilkimmyk]

Hi there! Haven't done one of these in a long time. Nursing a food injury since last July, but I must start doing something again. We want to make it to Disney again in the fall and I have to lose a few and get used to walking. Please put me down for 310. Thank you for hosting!

 

[DVCFan1994]

I am in for 1500 this month. Going to be scaling back a little on time but upping intensity this month. Thanks for hosting @LizardQueen8

 

[kathleen27]

Thanks for hosting March! @LizardQueen8

My goal is 1200 this month.

 

[Leleluvsdis]

May I join? I have never done this before, but would love to join if there is room. My target is 30 minutes a day

There is ALWAYS room!

 

[courtneybeth]

With two half marathons this month, a slew of 5K races, and training... let's go all in for.... 2500 minutes.

Wow! Impressive!

 

[courtneybeth]

Wow! Impressive!

I think I'm just crazy

I have a race just about every weekend. Two 5K's, two Half Marathons and some long runs up to about 2 hours once per week. Need to keep improving on my race time. Subtracted 16 minutes this weekend from my previous PR. Still slow but getting faster!

 

[PollyannaMom]

Wow, after that goal, my "I'm going up 100 minutes" sounds really sad.

But seriously, I won't have the vacation boost I had in February, or (hopefully!!) the shoveling, so I don't think I'll be duplicating last month for a while. But I am hoping I'll be walking more as the weather gets nicer, so

please put me down for 600.

Thanks for hosting, and I love the theme!
