Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for the December 2014 Move Your *kitten* Challenge!
PLEASE READ the directions below.
Welcome to the newbies and welcome back to the oldies!
"Rules of the Challenge"
1. Set your goal and post it to the thread....distance ONLY (Miles or KMs) - NO minutes, NO # of workouts, , NO # of calories, NO # of steps - DISTANCE ONLY.
2. Make your ticker if you want to use one (see directions below or in the FAQ thread) or add your goal to the thread.
3. Get moving your @ss starting Monday, December 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 don't post any NOVEMBER miles here. We will update the November spreadsheet once everyone has reported their November miles to the November thread - Please add only your DECEMBER goals/miles to this thread.
The purpose 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, stairmaster, elliptical, bike, roller blades, walking, running, biking, hiking, swimming (if you can measure).....just set a distance goal and do the work. Sorry, but we will not be tracking number of workouts or minutes moved in 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 openly compete with them. (Whatever goes on inside your own brain is your own business.
) The idea is to set your goal and reach it before the end of the month.
Once the thread hits 500 posts it will roll to a 2nd, 3rd and sometimes 4th part. Click the link on the last post that says <continued at this topic> to post your update. The main MYAC Group page will always list the current thread though.
Welcome to all - new and old.....have a great month challenging yourself!
Link to the Google spreadsheet where you can view (but not edit). The Challenge Admins will update it for you at mostly random times.... :laugh: ....but typically at least once a day. Don't hold us to that though.

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. (More detailed info is located in the FAQ thread on the MYAC Group page.)
Welcome and we hope you enjoy your stay and that you find this helpful in realizing your fitness goals! :flowerforyou:

I'm in for 100 again. Welcome newbies and welcome back my old, familiar friends.0

Since I will not be making goal in November and December is going to be even busier I think I will drop my December goal to 150 miles.0

Thanks again for another wonderful challenge! I will do 150 miles run/walk!0

I'm going to drop my goal to 260 for December. Too many unpredictable factors in December to really think I'm going to be able to push myself super hard.0

A year ago I joined this group, really stretching myself to set a goal of 40 miles. I figured 10 miles a week was DO-ABLE. Glad to have raised my goal bit by bit through the year to now be holding firm at 100 miles mostly by stationary bike with a little walking/treadmill. Lost 40 pounds and celebrated my 72nd birthday. A GREAT year! Thanks for the encouragement and the administrators!
Please set my goal for 100 miles again this month.0 -
Thank you everyone concerned for doing this. I am aiming for 160 miles this month0

80 miles for me please!0

My goal for December is 30 miles. I'm expecting to be super busy and I'm still dealing with a hip injury. I really need my hip to be 100% by January so I can start training for the Flying Pig Half Marathon!

Well I really want to drop my goal, but alas I am not. We are supposed to get snow and an ice storm this month. Please put me in for 150 miles again, and I pray I make it.0

After two months in a row of not making my goal, I guess I should lower it for the remainder of the winter months. My goal for December is 40 miles instead of 50.0
