March exercise challenge

[tipperary]

OK the snow is out and it doesn't feel like we are in Spring....but we are
So shake off the snow and get moving.
What do you challenge yourself to do this month.

 

[Chubby Ghost]

My addition to March 2018 exercise challenge.
I'm going to try and achieve 1188 km.
I log all my rides on Friendfit.

The only exercise I log is my time on the exercise bike.
That's 27 out of 31 Days at an average of 44 km each exercise day.
I do two sessions a day most days @ 35 minutes, 92-100 rpm, 36-40 kph & 120-130 bpm.

Previous Months

2018) January 1109 km, February 1182 km
2017) December 1070 km, November 985.8 km, October 1090 km, September 970 km, August 494 km.

6,901 km covered from August 2017.

I'm going to join in but I want to try to do more strength training this month to balance out my cardio, so I need to have a little think about what my targets will be. Also the snow is unlikely to let me do much running or cycling this weekend at least as it's just not safe It's just so annoying as I had a long run planned for Saturday which has had to be cancelled again.
Will be back soon once I've had a think.

Exercise Bike 66.4 km over the first couple of days of challenge.
Current Distance 66.4 km this month out of 1188 km.

Weight down to 225.8 lbs (16 st 1.8 lbs) from 266 lbs (19 st) next goal is 223 lb (15.99 st)

Exercise Bike 44.56 km in a dual session.
Current Distance 111 km this month out of 1188 km.

I do two sessions most days @ 35 minutes, 92-100 rpm, 36-40 kph & 120-130 bpm.
Weight down to 225.8 lbs (16 st 1.8 lbs) from 266 lbs (19 st) next goal is 223 lb (15.99 st)

We are still snowed in too. Each day we have got out for a very short walk, across the road and into the field to play in the snow. It has been too dangerous to walk on the road as even if you could stop slipping the chances are that any passing car could skid and hit you.
Will set my goals for March tomorrow.

 

[Chubby Ghost]

Exercise Bike 45.4 km in a dual session.
Current Distance 156.4 km this month out of 1188 km.
It's snow bound where I live also but with the exercise bike not such an issue.
The goals are just a target as long your weight is showing a downward trend that's all that matters.

I do two sessions most days @ 35 minutes, 92-100 rpm, 36-40 kph & 120-130 bpm.
Weight down to 225.8 lbs (16 st 1.8 lbs) from 266 lbs (19 st) next goal is 223 lb (15.99 st)

Right I'm going to break down my exercise this month. My targets are:

At least 6 strength training sessions which includes yoga, kettle bells, circuits etc.
Running - 20 miles
Walking - 20 miles
Cycling - 15 miles

I've not put them too high as I've already lost a weekend to snow and I also have some events coming up (mothers day, agility workshop etc) which will impact my ability to get out and about.

I will review later in the month and may increase my targets.

 

[Ponytales]

March so far:

strength training 1/6 sessions
Running - 0/ 20 miles
Walking -7/ 20 miles
Cycling - 0/ 15 miles

Hey folks, I am going to join this month....

I challenge myself to walk 100km over the month... I tend to do a 2.5km walk twice a day, usually on my morning and lunch breaks at work so I am aiming to do the bulk of my walks mon-fri.... we usually get out at the weekends for a walk too so can make it up there if I miss a walk during the week...

snow means I am only starting today but it is within reach...
