Roll Call June 2009 Excercise Challenge!!!

July Challenge posted: Roll Call July 2009 Exercise Challenge!!! 

How much do you want to exercise a month?
How can you push yourself out that door when the last thing you want to do is go to the gym?
Easy - Challenge yourself!!!
Pick a goal and work towards it!!!

What is exercise you ask?

It is whatever you do over and above your normal everyday activity. If you start taking the stairs instead of the elevator due to your wanting to improve your health this is exercise - if you park further from the door and walk extra - this is exercise. However if your work requires you to be on your feet running around all day - this is lifestyle and not exercise and should be added to your "activity level" in your account. I think its important for you to be honest with yourself so you will truly get the benefit of this challenge.

Some fresh sites on where to look to get some guidance and ideas for working out:

I'm going for another 1250 this month. Hopefully by getting started on time, I'll be able to rest a day or two each week.

I'll try for the 1250. I did 65 mins today - but I suppose only the mins from 1st June count.

48/1750 a more achievable goal for this month.

Hi there, I'd like to join. I'll try for 1250 minutes this month :).

Just a reminder this challenge is open all month - no sign up needed just post your workout time and your goal time.

have fun folks!!!

Fell behind last month.  Won't let that happen again!  Thank you timekeepers!!

Note: May exercise challenge was updated and closed out. Congratulations to all who made their goals for May!

I want to try again for the 1000. I would increase, but I start 2 grad school classes next week and work full time. This should be a real challenge for me! Thanks to the timekeepers for their hard work. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you. I lost over 5 lbs last month and attribute part of the loss to the commitment that I made in this challenge.

So here's to another good month for all of us! Let the losing begin.

June 1 weight: 147.4
