Default 300+ Exercise Thread

Welcome!!



to the 300+ exercise thread! We're making exercise a habit, giving ourselves some accountability, and getting healthier in the process!

In this thread, we track the number of MINUTES we exercise for the month -- whether it's walking or swimming or sweaty housework! Most of us set goals for ourselves (I personally will not exercise much without a goal). If you are a goal-setter, early in the month set your own goal! If you're just getting started, feel free to start with a smaller number of minutes (I did!), maybe just a few hundred. It seems easier for many of us to build on the habit rather than meet a very high goal right away. However, you can also just jump right in without a goal, and you can join us anytime in the month!

We invite you to join us!

To keep track, just add your minutes to the existing group’s minutes. If you’re new, look at what other people are doing – it’s pretty easy to figure out! To help everyone keep things straight, please note the OLD minutes and the number of NEW minutes you are adding, such as
Group total ~ 500 + 50 = 550 minutes.

I keep track of miles instead of minutes, but generally I do a mile in 22 minutes at 2.7 mph when I walk on the treadmill. When I do the bike, I do 30 minute time spans.

3.1.12 :: 2
3.2.12 :: 1.5
3.3.12 :: 2
3.4.12 :: 0
3.5.12 :: 1
3.6.12 :: 2
3.7.12 :: 1
Week Total :: 9.5 miles

Week 2
3.8.12 :: 2
3.9.12 :: 0
3.10.12 :: 0
3.11.12 :: 1
3.12.12 :: 2.3
3.13.12 :: 2
3.14.12 :: 2.75
Week Total :: 10.05 miles
Month Total :: 19.55

Bike so far March 2012

I have around 464 minutes so far this month.

Group Total 515 + 464 = 979
