Arrow March Exercise Challenge

Let's march into March (or dance, or jog, or walk)!

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: March Weight Loss Challenge

TREE here - I love to swim and it will be only suitable here for another 3 or so weeks.

Challenge to do at least 40 laps of a small family pool at least every 2nd day.

Cheers to all x

I didn't come very close to my February goals, but March is longer! I think that will help. Also, improved weather.

March goal: 1400 min, 25x stretch, 12x yoga, 10x strength-training

1: 25 walk, 20 stretch; 45/1400, 1/25 stretch

I'm joining a bit late, but here goes! Since January, I've been joggiing 70-80 minutes a day on a mini trampoline. I start with 45 minutes-1 hour in the early morning before work and then try for another 10 or 20 at the end of the day before I fix dinner. (Dinner has been late, starting at 7 instead of our usual 6).

Today I bounced for 45 minutes, biked for 12, and did strength stuff for my legs for 15. I will shoot for a 25-minute bounce this evening.
