Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!! 2uge4p4.gif

Fall is here and we want to be ready to shed those pounds! This is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!

What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.

We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise each week (minimum 180). We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.

We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.

The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)

Newcomers are always welcome!

If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.

You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??

    Count me in. I lost 50 lbs from Aug2012 through Feb 2013 and haven't been able to get back to the "losing" again... not gaining, but I've not lost any weight at all in over 6 mos. I started running in March and have been getting slowly more into it. No half marathons, but I've done five 5Ks and two 10Ks this year. I need someone to help give me a kick in the butt lol

    daily run/jog before work is 45 min or 3 mi.. depends on the lacking or slacking thereof, the day before lol.

    Week # 1 -- September 30th -- Goal 360 minutes: (52 min avg per day)
