    Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for the May 2013 Move Your *kitten* Challenge.....

    The first MYAC thread was in November 2010 and has been going strong and growing more and more each month.....Welcome to the newbies and welcome back to the oldies

    1. Set your goal....distance ONLY - preferably miles - no minutes, no # of workouts, no # of steps - DISTANCE.
    2. Make your ticker if you want to use one (see directions below) or add your goal to the thread.
    3. Get moving your @ss starting Wednesday, May 1st.
    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 moved each time you update.

    Please do not post any April miles here...Sara, Janet and I will update our April spreadsheet when the month ends and Dino will do his fancy *kitten* to give us all the awesome stats :) Please add only May goals/miles to this thread.....

    The goal 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, the stairmaster, the elliptical, the bike, roller blades, walking, running, biking, hiking, swimming (if you can measure).....Just set a distance goal and do the work...Sorry we will not be tracking number of workouts or minutes moved on this challenge - ONLY distance....

    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 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....

    Link to the google spreadsheet:
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0As57uSwFQUGJdC1OU0dvNEdQSXpWQzhfYjdTb1plWnc#gid=93

    Directions for making a ticker:
    Go to tickerfactory.com and create a weight loss/fitness ticker (link is lower left side of page). Then copy the BB code and paste it into your posts on this thread each time you do an update.

    Think I may have been a bit keen with 100 miles so please can I change my goal to 100kms? I'd rather have a challenge and exceed it than set myself up for failure. I can always up it in June!
    Anyway, I'm happy to log 5.48kms for today :-)

    My goal is 200 miles for May. Might be too optimistic for just starting...but it should keep me moving.
