    Hey @samra338 is this primarily an exercise challenge? I put my exercise "goal" in the spreadsheet with my name... it's low but it's going to be a jump from 0 minutes. I wasn't sure if we're supposed to put what we're currently doing or the goal?

    Thanks :)

    @DananaNanas Anything is good, we are asking for current exercise minutes bcos it's a team- based challenge and we wanted to ensure all teams start on a equal footing :)

    @samra338 I gotcha. Well I'm going to try it! Seems like I have the lowest number so far anyway so I'll have some catching up to do!

    I'm reconnecting with MFP and am up for this challenge, I think. Is this only for runners?? Would love to be on katharmonic's team. Thanks!

    Looking forward to a new race! @mheor if the format is the same it is lots of different forms of exercise. @katharmonic was on team one. I hope that's where I will be too. :)

    Woo hoo! So glad this is coming back! Best challenge on the threads, IMO!

    I had a hard time putting down one number. As I looked at my past month's weeks in my exercise logs, I can vary from 0 minutes some weeks to over 500 minutes for others, especially if the weather is nice. Depends on how motivated I am to work out (and I naturally try to be a slug rather than an athlete)...but this challenge will motivate you to get more minutes in (and why I'm so glad it's coming back as I need to be more active).

    I just joined the challenge! I have been missing from MFP for a couple of years. Good to still see familiar faces here!
