300+ Thankful for Exercise in November
 

to the November exercise thread! We're making exercise a habit, giving ourselves some accountability, and getting healthier in the process!

In this thread, we track the number of MINUTES we exercise for the month -- whether it's walking or swimming or sweaty housework! Most of us set goals for ourselves (I personally will not exercise much without a goal). If you are a goal-setter, early in the month set your own goal! If you're just getting started, feel free to start with a smaller number of minutes (I did!), maybe just a few hundred. It seems easier for many of us to build on the habit rather than meet a very high goal right away. However, you can also just jump right in without a goal, and you can join us anytime in the month!

In 2007 the 300+ club exercised 205,352 minutes. Let’s break that record!

To keep track, just add your minutes to the existing group’s minutes. If you’re new, look at what other people are doing – it’s pretty easy to figure out! To help everyone keep things straight, please note the OLD minutes and the number of NEW minutes you are adding, such as
Group total ~ 500 + 50 = 550 minutes

We've made a great start and I'd love to see us hit 15K minutes for October!!! What do you say chicks and roosters??

Minutes so far:
19,474 January
12,537 February
16,953 March
22,397 April
23,779 May (a record!!)
19,680 June
23,366 July (so close to a record!)
18,646 August
18,315 September
14,877 and counting for October

190,024 thru October

WE'RE GETTING VERY CLOSE!!!!

We are getting close to our goal thanks to EVERYONE'S minutes!!

My goal for November will be 1000 minutes

My goal is 1000 minutes!

We have joined our local gym & pool today I am really excited about getting my mojo back exercise wise :) Very exciting am going to start swimming first as confidence a bit low for the gym just yet. Need to get a wriggle on :)

I'm going to go for 2000 minutes again this month.

Oh! I'm the first!

40 min weight lifting

GROUP TOTAL: 40 minutes!

Let's go!!

No goals for me, however, here's my workout for today - 50 mins

Group total: 40 + 50 = 90 mins

Happy November Everyone! :thanks2:

Today I got in 50 min of cardio.

Personal Total: 50

Group: 120 + 50 = 170 :D

Heather - I think the challenge is on - let's break the record in NOVEMBER!!!

30 minutes Tae Bo/Cardio (hurt my side owwwwwie)

Group Total (170 + 30) = 200

Group Total - 200 +90 = 290

60 minutes Water Aerobics
30 minutes Walking

Personal - 90/2000

Group Total: 290 + 90 = 380

10 minutes Hard Core Abs
35 minutes Booty time
25 minutes Party Express
20 minutes walking video

just 15 min to add... a quick walk...

Group total ~ 380 + 15 = 395 min

Well, didn't quite make my Oct goal, but I'm gonna leave it at the same level. Probably going to have to pick up some treadmill time, since it's getting dark earlier, now.
Sun = 0 (intestinal bug--only exercise I got was running to the john, heheh)
Mon = 40 minutes quick paced dog walking

So:
Personal Goal = 40/1000

GROUP TOTAL = 395+40 = 435

11/2: 90 min - weights/cardio
11/3: 50 min - bike ride

Personal: 50+ 140 = 190 :)

Group: 435 + 140 = 575 :D
