I am doing this and will try to figure out how to so all this along the way..I have no idea how to use these group things but Im really excited about this group! Its DEFINITELY going to help motivate me to get my 33 minutes in for the day everyday!! Do any of you have any plans on how you are going to accomplish this? I will most likely be doing it by Bicycling, Kinect, and Walking! My ultimate goal is to be able to jog!! Maybe by May? I'm hoping!! Good luck everyone and Happy New Year!!!

    Hi everyone, been needing an exercise goal to aim for this year. This seems perfectly doable and will keep me motivated.
    Is perfectly happy to create a spreadsheet to show peoples progress if someone wants me to!

    I have a question is it possible that you can exercise every two days but for longer ?

    This is a great challenge!!! I can't wait to participate. I do take Sundays off, so I will need to add minutes on other days if that is okay???

    This is exactly what I need! A group to be accountable to, and a group who can keep me accountable! How do I track minutes???Do I just track them on myfitnesspal account?

    If you update your minutes everyday on the board and I'll track it on a spreadsheet

    Here is the link

    Just joined this group :)

    Well, 33 minutes is very precise! Atm my exercise plan involves Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, sometimes Saturdays, at the gym for at least one hour. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I have University in London to which I commute from Nottingham. On those days I walk a lot around London getting to and from Uni, etc, so that will class as some exercise. So that is at least 33 minutes walking on Uni days, and more so when I am at the gym and do an hour :) On Sundays I could go for a walk like I did today, which took me 45 minutes :)

    If anyone wants to add me, feel free!

    Everyone that has uploaded there minutes so far is doing so well. We're well on the course to get there. It can be a little intimidating to look at the end goal but a little bit everyday chips away at it. :flowerforyou:

    @leoS8190 Sorry for barging in there and taking control (over the spreadsheet issue).. i just didn't want this group to die like so many others have out there

    I always seem to be the one that changes the page or rolls the thread....
