Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for September's move your *kitten* challenge.....We started the first MYAC thread in November 2010 and have been going strong and growing more and more each month.....Welcome to the newbies and welcome back to the oldies

Set your goal, make your ticker or add your goal and current miles moved to the thread as often as possible and then get moving starting Saturday, Sept 1st.

Please do not post any Aug miles here..Dino will update our Aug spreadsheet when the month ends...Please add only September goals/miles to this thread.....

The goal is to set a distance goal KM or Miles and track your distance for the month...you are challenging yourself, not competing against anyone else.....the miles can be on a treadmill, the stairmaster, the elliptical, the bike, roller blades, walking, running, biking, hiking, swimming (if you can measure).....kust set a goal and do the work...

Report to the thread often to keep Dino updated because he tracks our info on a spreadsheet so you can see how you are doing compared to the group but not to compete with them....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....

  • I am new to this thread and anxious to become part of it. However, since I have never done it before, am unsure where to set my first goal. Do you have any recommendations for someone like me?

    Thank you for this great challenge. Last month was my first time and I didn't quite make my goal. I feel great about September and will set my goal at 60 miles.

  • I love your second ticker. How did you make it? I am a technologically challenged person.

    @GijitsMom - how much are you moving now??? there are 30 days in september - how many miles can you do at a time???

    i would figure out what you can do over a week and then multiply that by 4 and round up :)

    make sense????

    Wooohooo, here we go again

    Thanks to Denise for getting us all going & Dino for keeping track of us :flowerforyou:

    I'm going for just 75 miles this month as I'm on holiday for the last week of this month and may not be able to log my miles :ohwell:

    I'm in - for real this time. I'm aiming for 40 miles for my first time - 24 walking, 12 biking, and four running. (I'm a terrible runner, but I have to start somewhere.)

    Well looking at my training schedule for September, I will have 80 miles running/walking in September. If i can add my stationary bike miles, I would think I could hit 120 for the month. A lofty goal, but I think I can get there!

    How do I add the other ticker or do I even need to? :smile:
