in Challenges
Here's the 24 hours challenge thread for JULY, 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 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:

    I am in, though a bit late. I think I can still accomplish this goal, though it might be a little more difficult now. However, I am really wanting to give it a try. I need motivation, and I think this might help me get started on getting back to exercising. Hopefully, I will have a good strong entry to report tomorrow!

    12th - Didn't do any organized exercise, but we are moving into our new house and I got 9000 steps yesterday and ended up scrubbing my bathroom for about 30 minutes, so I think that counts. And I took the stairs up 3 floors at work, 2 times!! That is huge for me instead of using the elevator. I will call that a win!

    August 13: 1 hour (walk)
    August 14: 5 h 30 min (cycle)

    August total: 25 hours (100% complete)

    Since there's more time left in the month, I am going to round to nearest 30 minutes instead, as 15 minutes isn't really exercise, but just me overlogging minor walks for Strava activity badges.

    August 2: 60 min (2x walks)
    August 3: 30 min (walk)
    August 10: 50 min (walk)
    August 10: 45 min (walk)
    August 11: 15 min (walk)
    August 12: 15 min (cycle)
    August 13: 15 min (walk)
    August 13: 15 min (walk)

    That leaves me with 20 h 45 min (86% done).
