Alright ladies and gents...another month, another exercise challenge. In the past few months it's basically worn down to just me and Zirc. What a bunch of slackers!!! Whether it's 10 minutes a day or 2 hours a day, get off your butt and burn some calories. Exercise is good for the mind, body, and soul...so do yourself some good and join us in the chalenge!!!

The way we do it on the weight loss forum is that you just make 1 post and you edit it to update throughout the month. HOWEVER, once so much time has passed on this forum you are not able to edit your post unless you're a moderator. So if you will just make a new post once you're no longer able to edit, I will merge the posts for you to make it one post. ;) Please do not quote your previous post in your additional posts as it creates a lot more work than what is necessary just to merge them. ;)

Oh I'm probably going to regret this, but I have the Warrior Dash and the Autism Walk and POSSIBLY a bike relay this month, so I'm going to make my goal 2800 minutes this month!!!

Jumping in late, but just got p90x so I figured why not keep track here too.

For the rest of the month, I'll be shooting for 1380. An hour a day for 23 days.

total: 700

1-6: 0
7: 60
8: 30 @ dog park
9: 45 I could not finish. My arms were jelly. :(
10: 60
11: 60 Couldn't do the second workout; too sore from before :( Oh well, there's always tomorrow.
12: 45; only half as long as it should have been. The yoga kicked my ass :(
12.5: 45 I went back and finished it! :D
13: 70
14: 60
15: 60
16: 0; I was doing marriage celebration stuff
17: 105; caught up on yesterday's exercise and did today's. No doubt I'll regret that tomorrow.
18: 60
19: 50; I pulled a butt muscle in the first five minutes and had to skip a LOT of it

Got running shoes yesterday and planning on going to invest in something to wear on my legs (maybe yoga pants would be good.) so I can start working out. Maybe tomorrow? I'd love to be held accountable somewhere. I've got a LOT of weight I want to get rid of.
