Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for the March 2016 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 Tuesday, March 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 FEBRUARY miles here. We will continue updating the FEBRUARY spreadsheet using the FEBRUARY thread for approximately the first 5 or so days of March. Please add only your March goals/miles to this March 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 can't wait to get back to regular miles again. My goal for March is 40 miles, hopefully with more running miles in there. Thanks again to all those who keep this going month after month :)

    I'm in for 150 miles again. The bonus miles help my morale, which has taken a beating lately. I love this challenge group.

    Scaling back a little to 60 miles for March. IF I find more time to move, I'll increase that later in the month. Thanks again to everyone who encouraged me not to quit in February . And a special <3 Thank you <3 to those who keep us all updated and track us down if we disappear part way through the month. This group would not be the same without you. <3<3

    Okay...I am going for 200 this month since I have been exceeding my goal. Weather should be better to get some cycling in and longer training runs for my half marathon.
