set your own goals .
starting monday 2nd july -30th july . log your weekly total on sundays and how far to reach 15000 / or your goal.
lets really push it this month

Have a feeling this is going to be tough averaging 600 cals a day is not easy.
ps Need to find another 23 cals to catch up with delmc1 lol0 -

This is definitely going to be hard! Out of curiosity what exercise do you usually do? I'm a cardio kind of gal but it really doesn't burn enough so I've been looking for suggestions to mix it up!0 -

Hi CK, which one did you get? I'll probably wait a few more weeks before I get one but I see lots of people on MFP talking about the Polar FT7 and FT40. If we ever get a summer I'd love to get in some sea-swimming but without a HRM I'd have no idea how to track cals burned and thought a HRM could help.0

FYI : I thnk I'll have to watch this challenge from the sidelines... I'll be away for 2 or possibly 3 weeks in July which will play havoc with my exercise schedule.
I'll be in the stands cheering... "G'wan ya good ting! Now yer sucking diesel!"0 -
no excuses for august pal .we want you top of the list
