24 Hours of Exercise per Month Challenge - MARCH 2020

Here's the 24 hour challenge thread for MARCH. Let's do it again!! And welcome to any newcomers!

The goal is to accomplish at least 24 hours of exercise during the month.(MORE IS GREAT) Any type of activity that you would log in your exercise diary counts (both cardio and strength training) ~ walking, running, paddling, biking, swimming, gardening, weight training, dancing, HIIT, aerobics, elliptical, rowing, circuit training, stretching, etc. You get the idea.

For you BEASTS out there (you know who you are), if you want to do more, just post your personal goal that is over the baseline challenge goal.

And for anyone who wants to join part of the way through, just post a comparable goal to finish out the month (for example, joining half way through, post a goal of 12 hours).

There is no group for this and no private messages needed. No fancy spreadsheets either, just report your running totals here in the thread.

Happy Exercising!!

Last month's thread is here for examples on how to log your info:

    Fifty in February might have been a freak occurrence. March slowly gets a bit busier for me. I think 40 hours is attainable.

    3/01- 2hrs (1hr strength and 1hr spin)

    Thanks @JDMac82! Need this accountability! Although I have a busy month coming up, I am going to aim for 30 hours this month. I have been able to hit the 24 hour mark the past couple of months, so I think 30 is realistically possible! Happy March!

    March 1: 20 minutes of yoga, 60 minutes of walking/hiking
