Welcome everyone to the 3500+ calories burned challenge.
Can you believe this weekly challenge has been going on for over a year now?

This is a weekly challenge to meet 3500+ calories burned, it is open to everyone. You set your own calorie goal for the week. Each day post the calories you burned, current total and how many you have to go. That's it, not too hard, other then push push pushing yourself to hit your goal. Everyone is such an inspiration on this challenge. Keep up the good work for the people returning and welcome to the newbies.

Here is the daily update format.

Weekly Goal:
Mon: calories burned (how they were burned)
Tues: calories burned (how they were burned)
Wed: calories burned (how they were burned)
Thur:calories burned (how they were burned)
Fri: calories burned (how they were burned)
Sat:calories burned (how they were burned)
Sun:calories burned (how they were burned)

Total:
Left to go:

FYI You can only edit your post for about an hour after you post it. You can either copy and paste into a reply or quote your last post to update

Also please do not promote other similar challenges in this one. I didn't put this challenge in the groups so it is easy to find for new people as this is not a closed challenge and open to everyone. It would be hard to find in the groups and a lot of newbies would miss it.

    I'm in. About 3 weeks back into this eating well and exercise, needing to loose atleast 80 in the long run. Been pretty good about exercise since Christmas, a goal to work against sounds like a fine idea! Just looked back at my week, 3253 and 3262 the week before. so close. This goal should be a good increase for me. Just need to work a little harder.

    Ok week 4 and still have the goal of 3500 - if I still used my polar HRM I know I would hit that goal easily - as it was very generous on amount of calories burned - but my Garmin is a stingy bugger.....


    Weekly Goal: 3500
    Mon:Scheduled rest day (and my knees and ankles need these!)
    Tues: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Wed: calories burned (how they were burned)
    Thur:calories burned (how they were burned)
    Fri: Scheduled Rest day

    Looking at my schedule for the week Friday may be an exercise day as I have a big dinner out planned for Thursday and cannot be late for our reservations- we'll see if I can get my butt out of bed early Thursday AM!
