2400 pledged.
2510 completed.

Today is my day off, ready to start again next month...tomorrow sounds too soon. I will pledge less to account for less days, and life getting in the way..

I reached my 2000 minutes this month and I made my mileage goal on the elliptical this month: 40 miles. I wanted at least to get at least 31 miles.

So, the month is over. I did much better than I expected. I pledged to do 155 minutes. I know it wans't much but I was just restarting my exercise program. Today I finished the month over my goal. I got in 347 minutes of walking. Of course my Fitbit says I get much more than that but for this challenge I was only counting my actual dedicated fitness minutes.
WooHoo!!!!

Here's a thought for the day about exercising:

"When exercising, don't worry about sweating… Your PERSPIRATION can lead to INSPIRATION!"
