Default 300+ Thankful for Exercise in November

WELCOME!!

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!!!!

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
