The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
Exercise. Everyday. You set the minimum. Be honest. Running. Swimming. Cycling. Walking. Weight training. Yoga. Anything. ***Anyone who completes a 365-day streak will get a free high-quality (probably Patagonia) T-shirt with a cool RM-related design. I'll extend this to March 1, 2015, for anyone who wants to join or has already ballsed up their streak and wants to restart.

This is actually not a bad idea. Can you start low and adjust your minimum later on?
I would say absolutely. Making fitness a priority is something that must be fostered and you don’t want to set the bar too high to begin before having a chance to promote the habit. Plus, in modern society one thing you can’t buy, next to love anyway, is time; I’d say adjust your goals accordingly but keep the streak as the main concern.
For myself, I know my schedule gets awfully crunched so I’m going with twenty-five minutes of resistance training or two miles of running per day as my minimum. I didn’t get in to the house until after midnight last night so I’ll be starting today.
Nice job, t2b.

I've felt myself almost slipping back into a depression of sorts, so this will not be an 'exercise to get fit' thing for me, but more of a 'get out of the house so I don't go nuts' thing.
So sign me up for a minimum 30 minutes of outdoors walking every day.

This thread is for people who want to exercise for consecutive days in a row. And want some added motivation and accountability. While, yes, we could have done that in the work-out thread, this should make it easier for participants to track how everyone's doing.
