Time to rock fall! What's your favorite exercise for autumn? I hope to get to take a hike, at some point.

State your exercise goal and track it throughout the month with this supportive group of fellow exercisers. We'll compile our workout goals into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

This thread is for fitness and exercise goals. For other weight loss goals, be sure to see our sister thread: October Weight Loss Challenge

Welcome, Tabbycat and MrBadger! I like your idea of combatting lack of light with more daytime walks and evening workouts, MrBadger. I think that would help me, too.
