I've done about 2 hours of yard from yesterday and this morning. I am going to count 30 minutes of it as exercise because there were points where I was breathing hard, sweating, and I could feel my muscles really working. That means I made my goal for May.
Last night I did 75 minutes of walking, strength training and some good stretching. That brings my total to 1267. I will try to hit my monthly goal of 1300 today.
We've been out of town, eating a bit more than usual, on vacation, but got a good bit of walking in! 84 min of "aerobic" minutes total... Then today I did a treadmill session and back/ab exercises... another 60 min
It was a FREEZING and wet day yesterday, so I didn't walk to work, but I did do 20 mins of aerobics with the kids, plus 40 mins on the treadmill. I am looking forward to the wound on my back being totally healed so that I can jog again. I find it easier to jog at 10km/h (6mph) or more intervals, than to walk at 9km/h (5.4mph) intervals. The doctor put some tape over the wound after she took the stitches out, to keep it from pulling as it is in a muscle. She said that the tape would just come off itself and then I would be fine to get back into jogging and using weights. Well, so far the tape looks like it is stuck forever! I have no idea how long it will take to come off.
Personal Goal... 320 - 60 = 260 mins left of May's goal of 1800
Group Total... 14,346 + 60 = 14,406
The total is looking pretty good for May everyone!
Just got back home from my trip, and about to tackle the main thread, but thought I'd post some minutes. We did a LOT OF WALKING this weekend!!! I'm only going to count 3 hours out of the whole thing, though.
Well, so much for hitting goal yesterday. I only did my required 10 minutes when we got home after the movies. I meant to do something before we went out, but I didn't. So my total is now 1277 and I will definitely hit my goal today.
Hi, I also did lots of walking whilst away, and will add 300 mins. GROUP TOTAL 1466+300=1766 My Total 545+300=845 TARGET FOR MAY ACHIEVED!!!! (aim 800 mins) xxxsharon
Been outside most of the day, sweating, carrying loads back and forth, and whatnot, but I'm only going to count about 30 minutes of that. Then, did 20 mins water aerobics and such in the pool.
I saw your post over on the newbies thread and I'd like to sign up for June. Where do we go to do that? I'm still trying to learn my way around here.
Exercise is my biggest downfall, so I'll take any help I can to motivate me to move my butt! This is a great place to start. I'm going to start small for June (it's my first try and all). I figure 10 minutes a day won't scare me away, I should be able to handle that! So, put me down for 300 minutes then.
