    I love this idea! I'm on board. Just started today and already did 90 minutes today. Don't know how close I can get to 1,000 but I will accept the challenge. Hope to do it again next month. :) Karen.

    I'm starting late. I'm Shana and I just joined a few days ago my goal is 1000 minutes for the month.

    8/8 180 minutes cardio (archery)
    8/9 210 minutes cardio (combined archery and pistol shooting)

    First week total = 390 minutes (that's all I have logged on this app)

    I'm behind, but should get caught up this week.

    I shoot an Olympic recurve. Hoyt GPX riser. Currently using Win&Win 32# limbs with a Shibuya dual click sight. I'll be moving up to 36# limbs shortly with either the Hoyt 720 carbon/wood limbs or Hoyt carbon/foam limbs.

    Thanks! All I understood was recurve, but it sounds great. I want a long bow, my friend has a custom one but it just sits in his room!
