Great job everyone. As a team we're well ahead of last month's pace... everyone is keeping up with their exercise minutes very well.

Welcome in to Disneyfn420 and grfgrl4ever! You can certainly join in at any time... great job at jumping in instead of waiting for the next month!

Keep it up everyone! Half way through August... the cooler weather is just around the corner. (I keep telling myself that, anyway.

Hi Ted! I know that August is just about halfway over, but can I join in to keep me going? I've joined the exercise challenges back in April and did great until July when it all fell apart. I've been working out and keeping track of my August minutes, just never got around here to post them...

If not, I can hop in next month, if it's not a problem, I'll set my goal at 1000 mins and I've already done 543 minutes of that (mostly walk/run intervals training for the Hollywood Tower 10 miler).

Thank you!!!!
Beth

Just wanted to say I won't be around for the next week since I am going to DW. I will keep track of my steps to see how far I get. I hope to swim every morning too.

Keep up the hard work everyone.

First off I want to say thanks for all the support on my first race! That why I love this forum, everyone is so encouraging!

I haven't been too good about posting this week but I did get a little exercise in.

Monday-60 min run/walk plus warm up
Tuesday - 60 min mowing the lawn
Wednesday-60 min of heavy cleaning ( really like 4 hours of cleaning )

I don't usually count things like the last two but since I was sweating as hard as when I run I figured I can count them this time.

I may go for a run today but I'll add that later if I do.

That adds 180 to my total

New total 555/1200
