Here is is: Pick a workout you enjoy - running, swimming, walking, biking, lifting. Whatever you want!
The challenge is to get in at least 30 minutes every day. So an overall goal for the month of 1,000
exercise minutes.
Post your starting weight and exercise of choice. Check in every day for motivation and to keep accountable. We can do it! I am studying 10+ hours a day for the bar exam in 4 weeks, so if I can keep up, so can you.
My name is Amy. This morning I weighed 164.4lbs. My exercise of choice is walking my dog Marlow.

Sorry I haven't checked in yet. It was one crazy week. Probably the least min of exercise I've gotten in months. I digress.
I'm just going to give the weeks total for now. I have everything logged (except for almost 4 mi walking that I can't seem to locate the minutes on.
I still benefit from it so no worries.

Walking is my most common, although I partake in many other challenge with different requirements.
Total minutes week 1- 345
Including but not limited to Cardio/walking, Strength Training, and Pilates.
