I have an idea

Over on the LAP BAND board, one of the posters is doing an exercise challenge.  We should do something like that here.  We all need to get off our butts and do something!

I SECOND THAT WHEN I HAVE NO ACCOUNTABILITY I GET LAZY...SO I ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE WHATEVER IT MAY BE!

We should try and get some more recruits on board!

Sounds good to me! You can count me in!

Let's get some more and run this thing from next Monday, the 21st, until the first day of spring, March 21st.  It can be our own 2-month Spring Exer-thon or something!

I'm in!!  But I won't be much for exercising at first....I have my surgery a week from tomorrow, so I will be outta it at first, but heck yeah, I'm in after that!

Good luck with the surgery, man!  Glad to have you on board!  we'll come up with something fun, I'm sure.  Lots of inventive people here.

What kind of challenge are you up for?  Do you want to do some kind of distance challenge (for example, we get people signed up to run/walk/jog/lobster crawl a total of 100 miles all together or something by March 21st (100 miles might be grossly over estimating our capabilities...it was just the first number that popped into my head) that way people can sign up for as many miles as they are comfortable with, like 3-5 miles a week) or lifting or something.  What do you think?

What I'm thinking, Amy, is we just individually tally our miles walked/jogged/ellipticalled/whatever between January 21 and March 21.  Then we add them all up, all of us together, and see how far we got!

I like that even better.  Do you want to run a weekly check in or something to log our progress?
