Okay @$$ movers, here's the new thread for the July 2020 Move Your @$$ 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 on the first day of the month.
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: :smiley:](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
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. )
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.

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!

I'm putting it out there that I'm going to double my goal from last week to 100 after absolutely smashing the 50 miles goal!

Put me down for 125 miles again, thanks in advance!1

just got back from a 2.1 mile walk with Jennifer. It was toasty and humid out. May still get a bicycle ride in later after work if it cools off a bit and isn't too breezy still.

... going to go for 65 miles this month (on a high after the success of June but not as brave as you Dave to try to double the goal

Alright Dave, you convinced me. Set me at 100 for July.
I went to a Dr. yesterday and my resting heart rate was in the mid 50's. I don't ever remember my heartrate being that low. My BMI is off the chart, but the ticker is doing better.

Put me in for 300.1

I’m in for 150 again, though I had to push to make it (but I think that’s the point of this group
)

I just squeaked by my June goal with 50.58/50 yesterday. I'm in for 50 again this month. I hope it will be a much calmer month but who knows? I'm happy to be out of Florida and back up at my summer house in New York, but it's all day by day with these disease flare ups. Please stay safe out there.
@kar328 - 1 day? That is amazing. Good luck.
@Leanz - nice to see you back!
@djmicheals - feel better. At this point maybe you do hope you have COVID so you'll be antibody positive?1 -
