March Challenge

This comes from the post on my profile for a March Challenge.
From today any takers wishing to join us are more than welcome. This is an open group.
The rules are:
- You must, every Sunday, log the amount of minutes in a week that you wish to exercise for (you're trying to challenge yourself so put a little more than normal). We chose minutes rather than calories for those of us who do weight/strength training as it doesn't log many cals.
- You must, each day, come here and log the calories that you burned for that day and your running total for the week and what is remaining (see below)
- You should include anything you normally log as cardio. If you don't usually log for things like shopping and doing housework, don't start now as you'll only be cheating yourself.
- Try to push yourself. This is a challenge after all. Please remember that you will be expected to increase the number of minutes each week so don't push yourself too hard in the first week.
See my first post below to see how you should log your posts.
Good luck everyone!! x
