June 2021 Move Your @$$ Challenge

Okay @$$ movers, here's the new thread for the June 2021 Move Your @$$ 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? :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. :lol:

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 a day or so. Don't hold us too tightly to that though. :grin:

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!

Janet and Dave

    In for at least 60 miles! I'll be on vacation for a week and not likely doing much exercise (fishing trip with future FIL) but I'll probably make that up plus a little with some bicycling miles. :smiley:

    I'm looking at another unsettled month. Going for 50 miles. Here's hoping things go smoothly and I can crush it, but if not 50 is manageable.

    Could you put me down for 75 miles this month please. On holiday for 2 weeks later this month and don't know what the walking will be like. Thank you to you both for doing this.

    Thank you @darkrider42 and @JTH11706 for your tenacity - you make this group happen, whilst some off us (me) disappear for weeks on end!

    I’m starting my C25k this week (when I come out of isolation). So I hope to do 100 miles this month.
    Isolation has come about because I have spent today with my 1 year old grandson - who was poorly. His GP examined him in the car park in full PPE :'( . We’re certain it’s just a throat and ear infection, but he must have a Covid test and until the results come in ....

    Hi all! Speaking of disappearing acts, I've been AWOL a few years now. I am finally ready to get myself in gear again. I was thrilled and grateful to see Dave and Janet have kept this all going. So if you'll let me sneak back in, I would love to add my 50 miles to the group this month.

    I took advantage of getting off work early to enjoy the fabulous weather and got in a nice walk.
