Thumbs up January Exercise Challenge

Start 2012 strong with this month's Exercise Challenge! Set your exercise goal, then track it here for support, encouragement, and the shared energy of a group of dedicated movers and shakers.

We start off by proclaiming our goals, which get added to a list. At the end of the month, the goals that are met are printed in RED for celebration!

Look for our sister thread to track non-exercise weight loss goals: January Weight Loss Challenge! Join one or both threads for some accountability and support.

Default January Challenge

My daughter & I have challenged each other to build a string of consecutive exercise days; who can go the longest in January without skipping? (Our minimum time is 15 minutes to "count" on those really crazy days.) My specific goal is 21 days in a row--they say three weeks makes a habit so by then, maybe I can finish the month 100%!
