Okay *kitten* movers, here's the new thread for the November 2018 Move Your *kitten* Challenge!

PLEASE READ the directions below.

We welcome all 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 @$$ starting NOVEMBER 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 (or kms) moved each time you update.

Please don't post any previous month's miles here. We will continue updating the previous month's spreadsheet using the old thread for approximately the first 5 or so days of the new and current month. Please add only your current month's goals/miles to this thread. Got it? :smiley:

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.

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. :wink: )

The idea is to set your goal and reach it before the end of the month.

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.....but typically at least once a day. Don't hold us to that though. :smile:

Directions for making a ticker:
Go to either www.lilyslim.com or www.tickerfactory.com and create a Fitness ticker. 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!

Janet and Dave

    Well, will you look at that! I'm getting this thread up early for a change!! :lol:

    Once again, I'm going to try to get my treadmill stuff going again so it'll be less miles without as much biking, which I'll still do part-time....and I'm going to be on the road three times....so I'm going to shoot for 50 miles this month.

    I've been a horrible participant the last month and a half, but I'm determined to reach my goal in November. I'm going to make it attainable. This is probably my lowest goal ever, but I'm basically starting over with regular exercise. I'm in a position where I am finding some time for myself to get small workouts in here and there.

    80 miles for me this month.

    My ticker did not work so I couldn't post it here. Hopefully it'll work tomorrow.

    My plan says 100 running miles for November .... 10 mile race the first W/E in Dec .... that’s a massive leap in running mileage.

    *deep breath* 100 running miles - committed

    I am in for 200. Thank you Dave and Janet for your time recording data on this thread. Happy November to all.
    Nov. 1: Only 5 today. Rain Again! That is all it does. Can’t get my gardens cleaned up. Rough day. My old girl had an issue with her HeartGuard and had a blow out. All I did was clean up after her. Then I went down the basement to my pantry and a can fell off the shelf and nailed me on my second two right at the base of thejoint and slit it open. Tiny cut but bleeding off and on all day because of the location. Probably needed a stitch and is quite swollen and painful. Lesson learned...wear shoes. So not a great start to November. Hope everyone else is having a better day.
    TTD: 5 miles

    11/01 - 1.2m walking the dogs.

    We have an active shooter/SWAT situation here in my little town on 4000 about a mile from my house/walking route, so I had to make a short walk of it.
