We are roaring into March. With lots of exercise in February, this group is ready to move! To join us, set a goal for March 2012 and then track it here with a great group for support and encouragement. We'll make a list and as we each meet our goals, they will be turned RED in celebration.

Visit out sister thread, March Weight Loss Challenge, for weight loss goals. Join one or both threads and have a powerful March of exercising and meeting your goals.

Since I surpassed my goal of 1300 minutes in February, I'm going for 1400 minutes of exercise in March.

my goal was 1000 mins for february. i ended up with a total of 1275 minutes. that's over 21 hours! since march has a couple extra days, and i'm hoping to not be sick, i will shoot for 1440 minutes. an even 24 hours!

My goal for March will be 20 days or more of exercise.

Hey guys, figured I'd hop in on the weight and exercise challenges. Got 'em all bookmarked and ready to take on March like a Lion

Minutes seems like a great idea to easliy keep track.
Going for 1040 minutes.

This is going to all of my 60-min long once a week dance and Zumba classes.
And then 28 20-min workouts since I'm doing Jillian's 30-day shred.

Hoping to make this exercise thing a habit this month!!

Everybody have fun moving!

My goal is 620 minutes for March!

I'm hoping to do 10 days of C25K in March! It might not sound like much, but I'm going on a cruise for 9 days, so that will add to the challenge!

my main goal - run at least 40 miles.

I want to add stretching exercises in my routine (will post a lit later) and finally, start swimming again 2 times a week.

February: planned 21 - completed 24
March: planned 23

I'm a newbie, and I have been on low-carb for 3 weeks now. Last week I started working out 45 min a day, and today was day 7, so this week i've done 315 minutes which is awesome, but I am realistic and know that there might be some weeks I can't do that much, so my goal is 540 which roughly comes out to 45min 3 times a week for the month of March. If I exceed this amount then go me!!
Good Luck to EVERYONE!!

Last month I pledged 20+ days and did 22.

This month I'll pledge 21+ days.

Day 1 of 21+, done.

Supreme 90 day, workout 3, Tabata Inferno. Now this is what I'm talking about, baybeee!

Hey, I'm doing a C25K too! Don't know what (if any) specific plan you're following but if you have an ipod, iTunes has a free podcast called "NHS Couch to 5K". It takes you through each week - you're suppose to run every other day and complete each workout three times before moving on to the next. I'm doing week 4 twice because I feel I need it (besides, I know week 5 is going to be mostly running! lol). You don't have to keep an eye on the clock or anything because the girl with the lovely English accent who narrates it lets you know. Just figured I'd pass this program info along . . I find it quite helpful. Have a great cruise!!

So relieved to have had a workout tonight that left me feeling really good. I ran the other night at 5.2 mph and was miserable the entire time... I just couldn't keep up cardio-wise, and had to drop back to 5.0 at 25 minutes in and force myself to finish the last 5 minutes. But it sooo paid off tonight... I ran at 5.0 and felt AWESOME, and I could have kept going long past the 3 miles I had planned. Just a few weeks ago I was still doing all my runs at 4.5 mph, and I had to take 2 full weeks off from the running since then, so it feels like a major victory that 3 miles at 5.0 feels so reasonable now. I've been doing walk/sprint intervals after my runs the past week when I'm not totally beat (like I was the other night), so maybe that's helping? I dunno, but I loved feeling so good tonight. Best workout I've had in a long time.

March 1 - 3 mile run + walk/sprint intervals + warm up/cool down walk + stretching (4.4 miles total; 75 minutes)
