I got to the gym a bit late, so I only got in 10 minutes on the treadmill before my session with my trainer, which was 30 minutes. That brings my total to 205.

The group total is now 1360 + 40 = 1400

Wyllen - I haven't said it before, but I do like the idea of setting the goal of 100,000 minutes. I am going to aim for the END of August (sorry, that's not very optimistic of me is it?), so I'll say August 31st.
We haven't said what the prize will be for guessing the closest date that we reach the target, but I would be happy to send something "Aussie" to the winner. If I win, I could just buy MYSELF a present. Not really sure about that one, but seriously, I love to send Australian souvenirs overseas, so that might be something to consider.

Getting to my exercise... I didn't post yesterday's (first week back at school has kept me busy and tired) so... I did 30 mins treadmill, 15 mins laps of oval, 20 mins home gym and 25 mins bike. 90 mins total

Today I did 30 mins on treadmill and 20 mins laps of oval. Today is supposed to be my rest day, but I'm still not used to that yet. I really don't feel as though I need a WHOLE day resting, but I AM tired at the end of the day, so I have decided that if I am up to it, I will still do my treadmill workout in the morning, and I will do laps with the kids as well if I am feeling fine and we get around to doing them. But in the afternoon I'll have a break. That will still be an enormous treat for me because I can just relax and wind down from the working week. At the moment (4:15pm) a nap is sounding mighty nice, but I'm not sure if that'll eventuate.

Personal Goal... 1580 - 140 = 1440 mins left of May's goal of 1800

Group Total... 1400 + 140 = 1540

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Take care,

Zelma

Hello Ladies!

Heather, I won't be trying to guess when we are reaching that 10,000 mark...Not much of a betting woman, I'm not! LOL

I didn't make it back to my workout last night. Instead I took an hour-long bubble bath with lavender oils and read "InStyle." I slept like a baby! :-)

Did 45 minutes of cardio this morning. Tomorrow I've got my 60-min bike ride plus my dance class. Yippeeeee!

Group Total... 1540 + 45 = 1585


Happy Friday everyone! :-)

Well, I messed up the first few days of the month, but yesterday I did 60 mins of water aerobics, and today I did 30 mins on the NuStep and 30 minutes swimming laps.
So, for me a total of 120 minutes
and
1695 + 120 = 1815

Okay so far for the month of May I did 90 minutes at Curves. Yea me. That is more exercise than I did the whole month of April!

So: 1878 + 90= 1968 minutes total for us.

Yesterday I did my Woman Power Workout, which is 70 minutes. I hadn't done it in a while and I can defeintley notice a difference. I can balance much better on one leg and I can get up on my toes a little bit (couldn't do that at all when I first started). That brings my total to 275.

The group total is now 1968 + 70 = 2038

Hi all, you're really working up a sweat around here! Exercise is one of the banes of my existence, but I'm going to join you with a modest goal of 520 minutes of exercise in May. I did a 20-minute walk yesterday, and my goal is to combine walking and biking to get a total of 30 min./day by the end of the month. So if I add myself in:

Group Total 2098 + 20 = 2118

Haven't gotten to post much this week, but since my last post I did a 20 minute WATP DVD and walked my dog for 40 minutes, putting me at 80/600 for my personal goal.

GROUP TOTAL 2118 + 60 = 2178

Just finished a 30 minute upper body workout with weights while watching movies. What a novel concept....exercise while watching the boob tube instead of just sitting on my butt!

I'm at 110/600 now.


GROUP TOTAL 2178 + 30 = 2208

Well, another stellar dance class with LOTS of moving. This time we did "walking plies" and I hurt my knee a tad. So, I'm medicated and currently lying on the couch, icing my knee. I'm sure I'll be back on track tomorrow as it really only hurts a wee bit. And, I've figured out how to modify the move that hurt me so that I can do it without injury. OH, I so enjoyed myself in class today. Three of my friends whom I have not seen in a long time showed up to dance today. It made the class even more special.

So, I'm adding 90 minutes to today's total. And, that brings my aerobics total to 350 - just 10 minutes shy of my weekly goal.

Group Total = 2238 + 90 = 2328 minutes.


We are doing great! "-)
