Default 300+ Marching in MARCH exercise thread

WELCOME!!!!

to the March 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 2010 the 300+ club broke our 2009 record and exercised for over 250,000 minutes. I don't know if we'll break that record, but I do know exercise is a great way to keep on plan.

We invite you to join us!

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.

I did 650 in February, so I think I should be able to do 700 in March. I'll be travelling the first few days of the month, so I might not get minutes posted promptly, but I'll be exercising for sure.

I'm trying to get into a more regular exercise routine so I'm in for 500 minutes in March to get started. Hopefully I can start building up from there.

Welcome, cakegirl, P H A T, chinadoll! New blood is always invigorating.

I am counting 30 minutes of BRISK walking at airports today (though I think it was likely more than that... I was totally lost at O'Hare). Plus 10 minutes of yoga stretching I did as soon as I got into my hotel room

Personal total: 40/700
Group total: 217 + 40 = 257
