2013-2014 Exercise Challenge

[Owlie]

I added a stretch goal. I don't think I'll manage it, but we'll see.

Started out with about an hour this morning on a bike ride with DBF and his parents.

I'm wondering how to denote partial hours... like today I did 45 minutes of treadmill hill walking and strength/stretches. I'm assuming .5, .7, etc. Catrin, maybe my poor math skills are showing, but if you want to do 6 hours a week, that's 12X6==72. You really want to do 165 hours??? I put down 100, knowing that some weeks, I'll do more, but it might be closer to 70.

Crankin - I've no idea how I came up with 165, I knocked it down to 100. I can't blame it on a typo either, I was counting weeks on my calendar and probably put the wrong # in my calculator. It's been a busy day but thanks for pointing this out. Your question was a good one, I hadn't thought about that. I changed the display to show 2 decimal points and added .75 to your December column as a test. The cumulative field is a formula - you CAN calculate that manually if you wish - but it will also add the numbers entered in the 3 monthly columns if you wish.


Owlie, I don't see the stretch goal - did you want that in a separate column? If you do and it isn't working for you let me know and I will take care of it.

I'm in with a goal of 60 hours. Owlie, that is my stretch goal.

That was what I originally put in. I edited it to a more realistic number and put the stretch one off to the side. Now to figure out how to do this...

I am in! I usually do between 7-8 hours in a normal non-training week, so I went for 100 hours as my goal. This will be fun.

Catrin,

Thanks for starting this. I spent an hour on the spin bike today and didn't quit after 32 minutes just so I could post a full hour on the spreadsheet. Hey, whatever works, right?

[Catrin]

Whatever it takes - I did this for me as much as for other members
