This is a continuation of September's challenge, found here:

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/716735-24-hours-of-cardio-challenge

It's pretty simple. Log your cardio minutes each day, and then post them here every so often.

In your first post, state what your goal for the month is. Most people picked 24 hours last month; that makes a reasonable 45-ish minutes per day.

So I'll kick it off:

My goal for this month is 48 hours. I did 38 in September and 31 in August. This month I am also including my walking mileage along with my minutes.

10/01 -- 135 minutes (7.85 miles)

    Last months thread looked so good, I'm going to aim for 15 hours of cardio this month. But hopefully I smash it out of the park!

    Hey Amaizen...THX for the October Challenge. Today I was sooo busy, I did not do ANY exercise to day. I am picking up my daughter's dog tomorrow, and we will go walking for an hour. My goal for October? I will say 24 hours of Cardio. That is reasonable...I HOPE to better that...but committed to 24 hours of Cardio. THX!! :drinker:

    I'm in for this! My goal is 20 hours in October. I've been trying to run 10-15 miles a week. I usually run 3-4 miles at a time. My times are getting faster so I'll probably end up running more but in less time. So because of that, my goal is just 20 hours of cardio for October.
