I didn't make 1300, so I'll try for 1200 this month.

i'm just starting out so i'm going for 720 minutes. It should be a huge improvement over my current 0 minutes!

8.5 down 3.5 to go!

Alrighty, I'm going to try this challenge. But, I have a small goal of 500 minutes. I figure it's best to start off slow and work your way up.

Goal: 500
May 1 - 40mins (2mile stroll - outside)
May3 - 21mins (Gazelle)
May 11 - 60mins (really like 8hours of crazy cleaning. i broke a sweat so it counts!)
May 18 - 37mins (2mile stroll - outside. and yay for cutting 3mins off my time!) 15mins (weights &crunches)
May 24 - 35mins (2mile walk - outside. cut 2 more mins off my time!) 15mins (weights & crunches)
May 25 - 34mins (2mile walk - 1min less!) 11mins (weights and crunches)

Left: 232mins.

April I aimed for 1000. This month I will go for 1300.
