a few MFP friends and I are doing this challenge, though we're doing it on fleetly so I'm unsure if we'd want to update this thread or not, but I'm making it anyway just so we can use it! and so we can open it to more people!
the fleetly group: http://www.fleetly.com/challenges/197/
the endomondo challenge: http://www.endomondo.com/challenges/2845304
and feel free to just post here and snag the picture from my signature if you want to join us on here!

    nah bill, you don't, though I'm always down for more MFP friends! I'd recommend adding it to your favorites, cause it'll show on your profile if it's one of the last 2 threads you posted in, but you're probably going to post in more throughout the month!

    thanks for joining! :)

    A friend of mine suggested this also! I am in! However, I am going to make it a bit more specific and say 1000 minutes of CARDIO. That's 16.7 hours of cardio. I think I can make it!

    you can do it! I do mainly elliptical workouts (LOVE my elliptical!) so I'm going to try to go for an hour on it if I can (been working up to that) and also start doing some strength training. I always save the workouts from health magazines and even have a fitness board on pinterest with a bunch on there, but I always chicken out because I'm so afraid of doing something with incorrect form and then hurting myself.

    I've also been challenged to do the 30 day shred every day in november, so I'm gonna try and do that as many days as I can as well!

    wherever you want to, basically. you can use this thread if you don't want to join endomondo or fleetly just for this, or you can use those sites, if you'd like. if you joined fleetly, they don't do challenges by minutes but by points, so you kind of are keeping track of it yourself, but it does too, just not for the challenge? whereas endomondo at least allows challenges that measure in time.

    sorry it's kind of confusing. they're all just encouraging and a little competitive, so that's helping me be motivated, at least, but it may not be what you want to do.

    I'm in. I hope I stay on track. I just did the math and I think it's totally possible. I just gotta get off my booty and do the work. This will just give me another reason to do so.
