1000 minute challenge MAY!!!!! Everyone welcome!!!!!

post #1 of 55

Happy May!!!

What are your goals and plans for this month!

I did 1500 last month so I'll stick to 1200 this month. Cross Country season starts in June - so I know I'll jump back up to 1500 then. I'm afraid if I try 1500 for three months in a row, I'll injure myself

5/1 - 40 minutes easy yard work

Goal is 1500 minutes since I'll be tapering for a marathon the last 2 weeks of the month.

5/1 - 10 min walk, 55 min run

I'd like to join in this month!

I just started doing couch to 5k. Today I did week2, day1, which was 29 minutes and then I walked the rest of the 5 mile loop that I was running on. I stopped at the general store for a while in the middle (coffee, sunday morning loitering with my neighbors), so I'm guesstimating the time for today.

I'll come back again. My car dying and forcing me to walk and use transit really helped me get to 1000 minutes last month, so to add more gym time I will make my goal 1400 minutes in May.

5/3 -30 min walk
5/4 -60 min walk

w2d3 done today, plus a little bit of extra walking, and sit-ups/push-ups, 40 min total

And I realized I didn't state a goal at the beginning of this thread -- my goal is to keep up with c25k, and find ways to keep my body in motion on the 'off' days from c25k as well. I'm not shooting so much for a particular minute amount, but 1000 seems like a good goal to start with -- I'll adjust next month, if needed.
