Default The BLUE TEAM's Exercise Challenge 09/17-09/23

This is for the BLUE TEAM!!!

Many of us are wanting an exercise minutes challenge to get things revved up, so here it is!

State what your personal goal is by the end of tonight and check in as you make progress! The minutes will be tallied at the end of the week and posted on 09/24 when we start a new challenge.


Post your dates and minutes in the same format as we use for weight:

09/17
09/18
09/19
09/20
09/21
09/22
09/23

Best of luck and thanks GirlyGirlSebas for the suggestion!

Here's my personal goal: 210 minutes for the week. That works out to just 30 minutes a day on average. That should be easy, right?

09/17- 20 minutes
09/18- 15 minutes
09/19- 30 minutes
09/20- 25 minutes
09/21- 120 minutes
09/22- 15 minutes
09/23- 15 minutes

240 MINUTES! 30 minutes past my goal!

You put red team in the title line, perhaps you could get that changed so as to not create confusion? Thanks!

Yes, 30 seconds after I started the thread I sent out PM's the the administrators and I also attempted to remedy it myself. Alas, there is no quick remedy!

I'm so sorry team, I can't do the exercise challenge this week. Blargh.

Until I get this fatigue business sorted out, just getting ANY exercise will be a victory for me.

I'm going to try for 200 minutes for this week. I'm trying to build up my exercise little by little.

09/17 - 30 minutes (WATP)
09/18 - 40 minutes (elliptical) (the allergies are still bugging me but I still feel the need to exercise anyways.)
09/19 - None (rest day)
09/20 - 47 minutes (3 mile WATP)
09/21 - None
09/22 - 47 minutes cardio (3 mile WATP) + 25 minutes weights = 72 minutes
09/23 - None

Well, I didn't reach my goal of 200 minutes - I got to 189 minutes. I think having my allergies back this week made me feel a little less energized than usual so I didn't get as much exercise as I would have liked, but I'm glad I got close to my goal. I would definitely do another exercise challenge.
