    Ok so I'm new to the "community" I am morbidly obese to the point standing hurts after a short time. But I TOTALLY want to join and PUSH myself. I have been working out about 10 days now....Now for me that's going to mean my stationary bike I just changed the resistance to 2 today but still go slow usually about 9-11 mph average...but it's better than the couch. So I would like to set my goal for 500 miles on it and maybe some walking if I can do it. Now it no where compares to real biking I assume but still I'm trying!

    I did about 21 miles today broken up into 2 sessions!

    So many new faces!!! Hurrah! We must be doing something right! Welcome.

    My beginnings this month are small. After a palaver at work (setting off the alarm, running around, picking up my car from the garage then realising if left documents I needed at work and had to go back) meant I didn't make a planned flamenco class.

    So my exercise consisted of a three mile walk to the pub to hear some blues, and subsequent carrying of my swaying housemate back again...

    A proper walk planned today.

    @seaniepoohbear great goal and great start! It doesn't matter to us how you do it, as long as you MOVE!

    Quite a lot of gardening, pushing mum in her chair etc etc, dragging my knackered kid to the bus stop - it all counts. But all done in slo-mo sadly. I'll log it as 30 mins.

    30 mins minimum every day - 2 out if 2
    45 mins plus - 1
    400 plus cal burn - 1

    Hope our newbees having a good start - and chuckles Girlina!

    Distances include cycling + walking
    March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
    April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
    May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
    June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
    July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
    Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
    Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
    Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
    Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
    Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
    Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
    Feb: 470.53 km (292.4 miles) = 40 hours 39 min
    March: 917.73 km (570.2 miles) = 66 hours 13 min

    April probably won't be as ambitious as March was because I have three major uni assignments due before the middle of the month and won't be as active. But if I could do what I did last April, that would be nice. :)
