Red Team is driving from NYC to LA
 
Okkkk team mates. While in a group chat tonight we have decided to take on a challenge.

If we were driving from NYC to LA it would take 41 hours and 16 minutes (2476 minutes). Sooo as a group (if you wish) everyday you log how many minutes you exercised. We want to see how long it takes us to get 2476 minutes done.

Once a day or once every couple of days, post here as how many minutes you did. And we should be in LA in no time.

I just walked 30 minutes.

That takes us down to 2,446 minutes.

Thanks for the set up Chris. GO RED TEAM!!!

LittleBlueCat 01-04-2007 10:08 PM

On my lunch today, I've walked my usual 2 miles + 2 extra rounds (8 rounds = 1 mile), and that took me 50 minutes.

thintowin 01-04-2007 10:12 PM

I wish I could help us get to LA, but I get my cardio through aerobics, Turbokick, and cardio kickboxing. :( I rarely use treadmills.

happy2bme 01-04-2007 10:22 PM

Thin, we're counting MINUTES not miles - this way everyone can participate with their own program. So everything you are doing can help us meet our goal. :D :cheer:

thintowin 01-04-2007 10:30 PM

Cool! I will kickbox and dance my way to LA! Woohoo!

hdsqrl 01-04-2007 10:32 PM

I did a 30-minute toning class today! :D

happy2bme 01-04-2007 10:47 PM

If I could suggest... would be easier to track if you subtracted your time from the last person who posted. This way we can keep a running tally.

We were at 2446...

Nancy knocked out 50 minutes (yay for going 2 extra rounds) 2396

Then Megan came and contributed another 30 minutes :carrot: That brings us to 2366 minutes left to go. We'll be in California in no time!

CarebearsChris 01-04-2007 11:34 PM

Ok Ladies I managed to get 20 minutes in on the treadmill. That takes us to 130 minutes complete only 2346 to go.

WooHoo. I am betting we make it within a week.

Katiebobatie 01-05-2007 03:21 AM

I walked for about 45 min yesterday, so we were at 2346, and I took us down to 2301

choosewell 01-05-2007 07:13 AM

Somewhere west of Pittsburgh now...
 
Good morning, Slim Lovelies.

45 minutes on the bike at the gym this morning. :ebike:
I have my speed yoga down to about 10 minutes, that's a daily thing. :yoga:

2301 - 55 = 2246 remaining!

I have to say, I was going to only go to 40 minutes, and I thought about the extra 5 min for the team. Thanks, Red! thintowin, I love kickboxing! It's so good for the core, I couldn't believe how I got my balance back when I started that.

choosie.

CarebearsChris 01-05-2007 08:45 AM

Way to go everyone. We are getting there.

GetHealthy2007 01-05-2007 09:18 AM

2231-30=2201:carrot:

Tina30 01-05-2007 09:38 AM

Yesterday I hit the gym for a 80 min so that is:

2201-80=2121 go us!

thintowin 01-05-2007 01:00 PM

45 minutes Turbokick today.....2121- 45=

2076 to go!

hdsqrl 01-05-2007 02:24 PM

35 minutes today...
2076-35= ...

2041 more to travel! :D

hdsqrl 01-05-2007 02:31 PM

Uh oh...I just saw the Blue Team's travel challenge! I say we blow their team outta the water by walking to LA and BACK before the challenge is over! :D Who's with me???

spcdcider 01-05-2007 03:21 PM

Boy I have been out of comission this week I am on it today and I have just checked in to find the challenge and I missd a chat. I will be marching away and start logging later. You guys are awesome!

LittleBlueCat 01-05-2007 03:47 PM

Done my 50 minute walk. So: 2041 - 50 = 1991

So Megan, I agree with you! We should go to LA and BACK!!

CarebearsChris 01-05-2007 04:06 PM

I agree let's go to LA and back. We can show them. Hmmm wonder when they started their challenge.

chellez 01-05-2007 04:14 PM

We start today and run through the end of march...

only 102,170 minutes to go.... think you can beat us? :D

my3bibs 01-05-2007 04:15 PM

I did 35 minutes on the treadmill today which is 10 minutes over my usual!
I haven't been on it in a week, so I have to get back into it.

Sooooooooo, 1991-35=1956

So are we in the midwest already??? LOL!!!

CarebearsChris 01-05-2007 04:22 PM

Yes, I know we can beat you.

How many times can we get from NYC to LA and back?? Just look at what we have done so far.

chellez 01-05-2007 04:23 PM

If you can do it 41 times you might have a chance! :p

GetHealthy2007 01-05-2007 04:34 PM

Well,

Sounds like a 'dare' to me ;)

CarebearsChris 01-05-2007 04:39 PM

Sure does. I can't bowl for the next 10 days. (My exercise). I am going to have to rev up the treadmill and get some time in.

Michelle are you doing miles or minutes? We have figured out it takes 2476 minutes to drive to LA from NYC.

Ok ladies the dare is on. Let's do this. Everyone post our minutes even if is just a few....every minute will help.

CarebearsChris 01-05-2007 05:32 PM

Ok ladies. I just did 10 minutes on the treadmill plus 10 minutes this morning.

SOOOOO

1946-20= 1926

We are on our way.

When I get home from the bowling center (watching my team not bowling), I hope to get some more time in.

Katiebobatie 01-05-2007 05:47 PM

I did a 20 min walk this morning so 1926-20=1906

chellez 01-05-2007 06:21 PM

We are doing 5109 miles where 20 mins = 1 mile

all multiplied out its 102,180 minutes :D

katallan 01-05-2007 06:32 PM

I did 30 minutes tonight!

1906 - 30 = 1876

JennyMarie2 01-05-2007 06:36 PM

Hi guys! Add in 60min for me! I'm riding to LA! Hope everyone brought their water!!!!!

GetHealthy2007 01-05-2007 06:39 PM

1816 minutes with Jens added 60.. woohoo!

GetHealthy2007 01-05-2007 07:56 PM
