Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for the November 2015 Move Your *kitten* Challenge!

PLEASE READ the directions below.

Welcome to the newbies and welcome back to the oldies!

"Rules of the Challenge"
1. Set your goal and post it to the thread....distance ONLY (Miles or KMs) - NO minutes, NO # of workouts, NO # of calories, NO # of steps - DISTANCE ONLY.
2. Make your ticker if you want to use one (see directions below or in the FAQ thread) or add your goal to the thread.
3. Get moving your @ss starting Sunday, November 1st.
4. Post as often as you can to the thread so we can keep the sheet (see link below) up to date. You are welcome to report what you are moving each time BUT please make sure you post the TOTAL miles (kms) moved each time you update.

Please don't post any OCTOBER miles here. We will continue updating the OCTOBER spreadsheet using the OCTOBER thread for approximately the first 5 or so days of November. Please add only your November goals/miles to this November thread. Got it? :smiley:

The purpose is to set a distance goal (KM or Miles) and track your distance for the month - please only do one or the other...if you are doing KM just report in KM - we have a formula in the spreadsheet that will convert it to miles for us.

You are challenging yourself, not competing against anyone else.....the distance can be on a treadmill, stairmaster, elliptical, bike, roller blades, walking, running, biking, hiking, swimming (if you can measure).....just set a distance goal and do the work.

Report to the thread often to keep us updated because we track our info on a spreadsheet (see link below) so you can see how you are doing compared to the group but not to openly compete with them. (Whatever goes on inside your own brain is your own business. :wink: )

The idea is to set your goal and reach it before the end of the month.

Welcome to all - new and old.....have a great month challenging yourself!

Link to the Google spreadsheet where you can view (but not edit). The Challenge Admins will update it for you at mostly random times.... ....but typically at least once a day. Don't hold us to that though. :smile:

Directions for making a ticker:
Go to tickerfactory.com and create a weight loss/fitness ticker (link is lower left side of page). Then copy the "BB code" and paste it into your posts on this thread each time you do an update. (More detailed info is located in the FAQ thread on the MYAC Group page.)

Welcome and we hope you enjoy your stay and that you find this helpful in realizing your fitness goals!

    I'm going to pull back to 125 - I've struggled in October, and the weather here is beginning to turn.

    I am in a quandary, my son has not had his surgery yet and I am not sure how many miles to declare due to his health and our weather has turned to crap, fast. So put me in for 125 and we will see what happens.

    Put me down for 100 miles, a combination of 60 walking miles and 40 cycling miles.

    I haven't gotten back on my bike since my surgery in May. At the suggestion of Ananconda469 and with her encouragement, my cycling goal for November is 2-3 weekly rides of 3-5miles each. Just to get back in the saddle.

    My resolution for November is to get my *** in here every day and POST, even if I am not happy with myself. Please put me down for 75 miles. I want more, but I am going to start there and see what the month brings.
