The target for July is 1860 mins in 31 days - that is 60 mins every day! It's meant to be challenge, remember!!!

Please don't feel you're a failure if you don't make it to the above mentioned target at the end of the month. Even if you do half of that amount for the month you are doing a fabulous thing for yourself and your health. I guess by doing more cardio you will speed up your rate of weight loss. Aiming for 30 mins a day on most days of the week is in itself a fantastic achievement. So, I don't want anyone downing themselves if they "can't keep pace", OK? Promise me...

To participate:

1. reply to this message and put your FOH username in the subject line
2. log your daily cardio exercise, in minutes, plus a cummulative total
3. edit your original reply post every couple of days or whenever you can

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! Now, on your bike or get walking or whatever you want to do to get that HR up !

So far there is... and I'll be chasing you down if I don't see a reply here in the next day or so!!!
