65 minutes of Wii Sports

Is anyne starting an october challenge? X

31 minutes of Wii Gold's Gym Dance Workout.

I am enjoying it even though I am not co-ordinated at all and can't seem to accomplsih the arm and leg moves at the same time! It's only my second time using it but I haven't given up yet! Must be because it's fun! Well, it's only fun when the Wii remote and the game work properly as otherwise it gets frustrating when you are doing the arm moves they show but the game keeps saying you missed the move!

More exercise to come later. Goal is 1 hour for today.

Did 11 mins jogging. Will report back later if i do anymore x

Just done 20 mins EAactive2 so i have done 31 mins today x
