November Exercise Challenge

[Natasha]

Holy crap, it's November already!?!?!? Guess it's time for a new exercise challenge, then. Everybody is welcome to join, whether you're just starting your exercise program or you're an accomplish marathon runner.

You can see by my example here how it goes. Pick a goal (it doesn't HAVE to be minutes, it could be "work out 5 times a week" or whatever) and try to meet it. After so many hours you will not be able to edit your posts, so please put new workouts in a separate post and I will merge them for you. Please do not quote your original post...it makes for a lot of extra work. Thanks!!!

So get off your butt and get moving. Call it a pre-emptive strike against all those Thanksgiving calories you're going to be taking in!!!

My goal for this month is going to be 2500 minutes.
