Here's the 24 hour challenge thread for February. Let's do it again!! And welcome to any newcomers!
The goal is to accomplish at least 24 hours of exercise during the month of February. Any type of activity that you log in your exercise diary counts (both cardio and strength training).
For you hosses and hossettes out there (you know who you are), if you want to do more, just post your personal goal that is over the baseline challenge goal.
And for anyone who wants to join part of the way through, just post a comparable goal to finish out the month (for example, joining half way through, post a goal of 12 hours).
There is no group for this and no private messages needed. No fancy spreadsheets either, just report your running totals here in the thread.

Yep, anything you log in your exercise diary counts ~ walking, running, paddling, biking, swimming, gardening, weight training, dancing, HIIT, aerobics, elliptical, rowing, etc. You get the idea...
And 24 hours doesn't sound like much, but especially with the short month, that's at least an hour of something every day (with 4 rest days). It's not hard, but it does take some focus to be sure you get it done. But it also doesn't have to be done all at once. 15 minutes here, 15 minutes there, and another 30 minutes and you've done 1 hour that day.

Review ...
(Distances include cycling + walking)
March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
Feb: 470.53 km (292.4 miles) = 40 hours 39 min
March: 917.73 km (570.2 miles) = 66 hours 13 min
April: 417.83 km (259.6 miles) = 40 hours 23 min
May: 267.09 km (165.9 miles) = 36 hours 10 min
June: 552.1 km (343 miles) = 54 hours 48 min
July: 709 km (440.5 miles) = 60 hours 41 minutes
Aug: 775.9 km (482.1 miles) = 54 hours 52 minutes
Sep: 371.3 km (230.7 miles) = 32 hours 20 min
Oct: 649 km (403.3 miles) = 49 hours 46 min
Nov: 403 km (250.4 miles) = 52 hours 16 min
Dec: 511.05 km (317.55 miles) = 52 hours 2 min
Jan: 741.9 km (461.0 miles) = 70 hours 3 min
So ... the goal is, of course, a minimum of 24 hours of exercise ... and I'd like to do more than February last year.2 -
Do you have to use my fitness pal to track your exercise? I work with a personal trainer and we don't do standard things listed in my MFP. I also can't keep track of the many things we do during the hour so I track with my Apple Watch using the "other" workout feature.
