Okay @$$ movers, here's the new thread for the October 2020 Move Your @$$ Challenge!
PLEASE READ the directions below.
We welcome all 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 @$$ starting on the first day of the month.
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 (or kms) moved each time you update.
Please don't post any previous month's miles here. We will continue updating the previous month's spreadsheet using the old thread for approximately the first 5 or so days of the new and current month. Please add only your current month's goals/miles to this thread. Got it?
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. )
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.

Directions for making a ticker:
Go to either www.lilyslim.com or www.tickerfactory.com and create a Fitness ticker. 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!

Thanks to the administrators for all your work.

Thanks for the image compliment @k80flec and @darkrider42 It is the milky way at Mt. Bachelor where @anaconda469 does some workouts
I joined a gym today to start lifting a bit so I'm afraid to put my walking goal at 100 again, but that is what I'm shooting for. Thanks to all of you and walking 480 plus miles the last five months, I am down over 50 pounds. Looking forward to getting the next 50 off.2 -

Back on the bike again. It was good to ride to work again. Short distance and an easy pace but it was nice to get the legs spinning again. Only three miles, but it was nice to be back on the bike.
3 miles out of 200.0 -
@JoeMO - Dang! That's really impressive. You rock!! I'm happy when I'm down 5 pounds. 50 is amazing!1

Welcome to our new member, @DREAMPHEDRE!
Glad to have you with us! Any questions, feel free to ask. Don't forget to check in with your progress every day or so and to say Hi. It's easier to stay on track when you keep connected.
@JOEMO - That's GREAT to hear your progress and that we're playing a part! Keep up the great work! This group has really helped me as well. So many times and so many ways.
@SUFFERLANDRIAN - That's great to hear you're back on your bike, Dean! And that you must be feeling better too!
Janet and I appreciate all of the thanks and we don't get tired of hearing it.
But like I've often said, I get at least as much out of this as all of you so I have no intention of letting it go any time soon. 
Have a great weekend!
