Disneyland Diamond Celebration June exercise challenge -- making dreams come true minute by minute!

[lisah0711]

Make your activity dreams come true one minute at a time!

To all who come to this challenge: welcome! This challenge is YOUR challenge. Pick a goal of total minutes for the month and post it below. It can be anything you want. From 10 minutes to 2,000 and beyond. For June, 30 minutes a day is 900 minutes. Then continue to post throughout the month including what you've been up to for your exercise minutes along with your total so far for the month. I'll continue to update this post with everyone's progress.

When you achieve:

10% of your goal, your color will change to Blue Bayou Restaurant Blue
25% will bump you up to Space Mountain Orange
at 50%, we'll celebrate by turning you Paint the Night Parade Purple
at 75%, you will become Sleeping Beauty Castle Pink
In keeping with tradition, you be Disneyland Firehouse Red at 90% (cuz you're on fire!)
and you'll be Peter Pan Flight Green upon achieving your goal.

Whether you've joined this journey in the past or if you're a newbie - WELCOME!

Sign up below and I'll get you up here on the first post, and we'll kick things off on June 1st!

Congratulations to the TEAM for turning Disneyland Firehouse Red!

 

[Dis_Yoda]

I'll stick to 1500 minutes again.

 

[pix13dust]

Thanks for hosting Lisah0711!!
I'm down for 1200 minutes this month.
Thanks!

 

[5xdisneyfans]

Going to try and hit my 1000 again this month. Didn't make it all the way in May but know I can do it.

 

[LizardQueen8]

I love the theme!!! I went way over my goal for May, but given that it was my first time, I'm going to stay conservative for June just in case it was a fluke . Put me down for 1000 minutes.

 

[Rattpack]

Thinking I should start with a slightly conservative goal for my first time. Let's put me down for 600 minutes.

 

[hmack]

Awesome theme!

In keeping with the theme of Magical things - I've going to go for a goal I've wanted to try but I've never attempted: 2,000 minutes please.

(insert big gulping sound here)

 

[swissfamilyrobinson]

What a cute theme!

Please put me down for 900 minutes.

Thanks so much!

 

[jmaussies]

I really fell of the wagon in May and didn't get close to my goal. I'm going to go conservative this month and shoot for 500 minutes.

How do you determine your minutes when you are at WDW? I will be there for 10 days this month and I'm not sure how to figure out how many minutes I'm actually exercising.

 

[SarahDisney]

Thanks for hostessing, lisah0711!
I love the theme ... I hope you'll have lots of 60th anniversary pictures to share with us! I so wish I could make it out there for the anniversary, but it doesn't look like I can swing a trip to California this year.

Put me down for 1100, please!

Kudos to you, hmack, for selecting an awesome ambitious goal!

How do you determine your minutes when you are at WDW? I will be there for 10 days this month and I'm not sure how to figure out how many minutes I'm actually exercising.

It's up to you how you want to count your WDW minutes -- we're not joking when we say it's YOUR challenge! In the past I've counted 60 minutes for park day but it is totally up to you how you want to count things.

I love the theme ... I hope you'll have lots of 60th anniversary pictures to share with us! I so wish I could make it out there for the anniversary, but it doesn't look like I can swing a trip to California this year.

Luckily there is lots of 60th anniversary info to share and I will definitely be doing that. I won't be in CA myself until January but luckily celebration years at Disney have a way of being longer than 12 months so you may be surprised how long the celebration lasts.

 

[dglilbit]

Transferred to a new job at work and been out of the picture the last month! Time to get back in so please put me down for 900 minutes for June!!

 

[bearybubba]

Newbie here! Please put me down for 600 minutes. Looking forward to this challenge! Need the motivation for training for the Jingle Jungle 5K in November.

 

[PollyannaMom]

Love the theme!

15 min/day seemed to work for me last month (somehow, I did more than when my goal was 20 min/day) so I'm sticking with that, which means 450 minutes for the month of June.

Thanks!

 

[Sleeping*Beauty]

I'm gonna shoot for 350 again this month.
Time to shine bright like diamonds!

 

[sophy1996]

Well, I replied before but that seems to have disappeared (or never to have appeared). Strange!

800 minutes for June

 

[lisah0711]

Welcome to the Disneyland Diamond Celebration June exercise challenge!

Please post your monthly minute goal, if you haven't already, and I will place your name on our participant roll call.

And here is a little Disneyland trivia for you:

Opening Day

On July 17, 1955 Disneyland opened it’s doors to the public with 18 ticketed and 5 free attractions. The attractions included Jungle Cruise, Mad Tea Party, Mark Twain Riverboat and Autopia.

Let's get this party started!

 

[Rose&Mike]

Please put me down for 1500.

I am at 40/1500 as of this morning.

Thanks!

 

[Trith]

In for 1000 minutes this month

 

[Flossbolna]

Lisa, I just saw that you are hosting the exercise challenge this month and thought I better sign up for it! I am setting a low goal, because I am on vacation (but determined to run around deck 4 of the Disney Magic!), so I am in for 600 minutes.
