July 2021 Move Your @$$ Challenge

Okay @$$ movers, here's the new thread for the July 2021 Move Your @$$ 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 again! Hope to get out on my bike more this month though. Didn't do so well with that in June. Too darn hot, muggy, and windy!!

    I hope you all had a successful June and will have a fabulous July.

    I'm hoping to exceed the 65. We're going on some short staycations within the state but there is a fair amount of driving.

    Got a saddle sore from riding in 104 degree heat. Guess I’ll have to start slow with 9 miles added.

    Adding 9 miles for 9 out of 300

    Hi Dave or Janet

    Could you please add 122.24 miles to my June total. Sorry but I have been away for two weeks. I would very much appreciate it if you could. Also, could you put me down for 100 miles this month.

    Haven't done many miles as I am isolating for 20 days after having been away. Its a requirerment of the UK when coming home so can't go out walking.

    1st July walked 2.97 miles
    2nd July walked 1.85 miles
    3rd July walked 0.96 miles

    Just what I can walk around the garden.

    Total to date 5.78 miles
