soooooooooooooo~~

starting the thread...let the challenge begin -

i'm working out 2 days a wk with trainer ^ 1 day conditioning with baylor ftball players *yeah they're cute...LOL* got a cardio goal in my head ; love whosya & ceradad for setting the bar~~

cheeers to all who join!!!

Alright I am in... Late start but I will do 200 miles on my bike this month and 50 miles walking.

Treadmill today:

interval incline and speed

4 min warm-up

jogging the entire 41 minutes!

You know I have to make myself get on and I sort of drag my feet most days, but it feels so good when you are done!!! :thumbup:

I hope I'm not too late to join. I'm setting a pretty low goal for myself this month. Considering it's been, oh I dunno about 3 years since I've done any real exercise! So my goal is simply to work out 3x a week this month, but I am really shooting for more. I know that if I have to come and check in every day that I'll be accountable and get it done!

Today I swam 20 laps and walked for 30, so off to a good start for me! Already feeling a nice burst of energy from that too! I love this feeling!! :thumbup:

BTW you are all doing awesome! I can't believe some of the numbers you are putting up! VERY inspiring! keep up all the hard work!

Frangi, glad I've got my exercise buddy back! We'll both be back in full swing in no time.

I walked for 35 minutes today and I'm continuing to pick up the pace. Gotta get started on potato salad now. We're having a big bash today. Happy 4th to everyone!

JULY EXERCISE CHALLENGE - 22 DAYS OF WALKING

4/22 COMPLETED

Checking in and modifying my goal for the month.

3 mornings a week: Couch to 5k (that remains unchanged)

4 mornings a week: 45 minutes of walking

Originally, I reported that I would do the 3 mornings a week and walk every evening with my mom. She has proven to be an unreliable walking buddy (I'd never tell her that, though). So, I'd rather get my exercise in every morning on my own, and then if my mom wants to walk in the evening, it will just be added bonus, but I don't expect it more than 1 - 3 days a week.

Day three (and four, five, six) are swimming! Spending a long weekend in Phoenix by a friend's pool. With this heat, I am still trying to walk, but swimming is much more my style when I am melting!

=) So far, so good!

Good work ladies....I love Fran and Texas Becky..and i like getting to know the rest of ya.

Ok here is my race report for today :

OK Fox FireCracker 5k report:

I'm just starting back to my exercising.

I'm going to commit to 28 miles walked/jogged in the month. And to start doing weights at least 1 time per week.

day 2 worked out again. I just can't get over how much energy I get after a workout! I love it! Did 30 mins on the bike, and then walked alot today.

Whosya-congrats! thats an awesome time and HOORAY for xl shirts!

Walked yesterday for 45minutes. I'm actually starting to look forward it.

Today...on my way out to do day 3 of couch to 5k...not looking forward to this, AT ALL!

This week I did my 5 hours of Water aerobics. Onto next week, with 5 hours more. I just love it!

Great work everyone!
