The Fitness Challenge: Reshaping Our Future | Rick C. Mason

#BookFitnessChallenge

I was so busy organizing (b/c you guys blew me away with your enthusiastic response!), I almost forgot to set my own goals. And like the rules & the points system, I of course couldn‘t resist being a bit complicated. 😂 #blameitonthedayjob #lawyersoflitsy

And because you all embraced this idea so thoroughly, I have a couple other ideas brewing that I may toss out to you later this summer. 😉

Let‘s go team! 🙌🏻 #BFC

wanderinglynn Oh, and 6 audiobooks! 5y

CoverToCoverGirl I‘m in! 5y

Clwojick Woohoo! This is a strong list of goals! I‘m sending you all the positive vibes! ♥️ 5y

mcipher Wow!! That‘s sb awesome list of goals! 👍 5y

alisiakae Great goal list! I like to use Insight Timer for meditating, and it also makes it easy to track for this challenge! 😃 5y

wanderinglynn @4thhouseontheleft I‘ll have to try that. 👍🏻 Thanks! 5y

Bookladylinda So I have a last minute question. Do you have to have a Fitbit to join this challenge??? I have an Apple Watch, I have a little Zip Fitbit but honestly have no idea where it could be. 5y

wanderinglynn @Bookladylinda No, there was no requirement that you had to have a fitbit. Goals were to be based on your individual needs/abilities. 5y

Read4life These goals are great. I‘m with Dexter in regards to the rain. I don‘t mind if it rains, I just don‘t want to be out in it. 🌂⛈ 5y

Bookladylinda @wanderinglynn ok, I guess I was thinking that people would be sharing their goals via Fitbit. Thank you! I know the challenges start today and I was thinking of signing up but wanted to check that first. 5y

mabell I think you did a great job on the point system! It would be hard to quantify otherwise. Though I know I will promptly lose track 🤣 5y

TheEllieMo I‘m not very good at adding people on Fitbit, I have no idea whether my attempt@to add you has worked.... 5y

alisiakae Can‘t wait to begin! 5y

wanderinglynn @TheEllieMo It worked! 😀 5y

wanderinglynn @trosebud and I sent you an invite to the#BFG group 👍🏻😀 5y

wanderinglynn @mabell Thanks! I was trying to make it so there‘s clearly be a points winner. (Although I do have more than one prize, so there will be other winners. 😉) 5y

Caterina Great clarification! I was wondering if comments would count or not pre-challenge date, so it's good to see this post! 5y

ErinC I just emailed you! 5y

Stacy_31 I received it. Thanks! 5y

wanderinglynn @ErinC I replied. Let me know if you‘re still not getting my emails & I‘ll email you from a different account. 👍🏻😀 5y

BarbaraJean I‘ve been pondering signing up & decided to go for it...then I got confused on the book goal instructions.😬You‘ve said it‘s how many books you will read during the 6 weeks & any format counts—but is that specifically number of books read while working out/walking/fitness-ing? Because my goal will definitely be higher if it‘s all books read whenever during the 6 weeks! But books read while sitting around seems contrary to the challenge, so...🤔 5y

wanderinglynn @BarbaraJean No, the books don‘t have to be read/listened to while working out. While I know a lot of people do audio books while walking (which was my original thought for this challenge), some workouts wouldn‘t allow for that anyway (like my fave workout, boxing). So it‘s just however many books you think you‘ll get to in 6 weeks. 5y

Butterfinger Ready to start!!! 5y

BarbaraJean @wanderinglynn Thanks for the clarification! Now I can make sure my reading goal is more accurate. 😊 Signing up now! (edited) 5y

audraelizabeth Are we allowed to change our book goal before the challenge starts? 5y

AprilMae Yay!! Can't wait to get started!! 5y

ness Is there a hashtag? Love this! 5y

wanderinglynn @audraelizabeth Yes, just do a new post with your goals No need to fill out a new form. 5y

wanderinglynn @Butterfinger @AprilMae 🙌🏻 5y

wanderinglynn @ness it‘s #BookFitnessChallenge or I‘ve been shortening it to #BFC 5y

ness @wanderinglynn 👌 Thank you! 5y

wanderinglynn @TheEllieMo @Airykah13 @TheLibrarian @audraelizabeth @TheSpineView @okthislooksbad @Emilymdxn @JJSturm72 @LoveToReadLiveToRead @Bradleygirl @BarbaraJean @crazyspine @marleed @Cailey_Mac @LaraReads @Jess @KathyWheeler @ness @LauraBeth @BeccawithaBook @Kaila-ann – I sent you all the email. Let me know if you didn‘t get it. Apologies if you previously received it—my spreadsheet got a bit out of whack & I lost who had/hadn‘t received it. 😉 5y

audraelizabeth @wanderinglynn thanks. 5y

TheEllieMo @wanderinglynn I haven‘t had a e-mail😔 5y

KathyWheeler @wanderinglynn I haven‘t received one yet. 5y

wanderinglynn @KathyWheeler I just resent it. Let me know if you don't get it this time. 🙂 5y

wanderinglynn @TheEllieMo I just resent it. Let me know if you didn't get this one. 🙂 5y

KathyWheeler @wanderinglynn It got thrown in my junk folder — I have no idea why. Thanks. 5y

TheEllieMo @wanderinglynn still no - I‘ve just sent you an e-mail to the address on the sign-up form to confirm my e-mail address 5y

wanderinglynn @KathyWheeler 🤷🏼‍♀️ several people had that issue with it turning up in spam. As long as you got it. 👍🏻 5y

wanderinglynn @TheEllieMo I sent it this time from my gmail account. Hopefully you‘ll get it this time. 😉 5y

LoveToReadLiveToRead @wanderinglynn got it! 👍🏻 5y

LauraBeth The complicated point system is what drew me in tbh 😀 5y

LauraBeth Also - hashtags in subject lines trigger spam filters, so that‘s the likely sneaky culprit! 5y

tpixie Good luck 🍀 and have fun everyone!! 5y

wanderinglynn @LauraBeth Ah, that makes sense. No more hashtags in the subject line! 👍🏻 5y

Airykah13 @wanderinglynn yep, I got it! It went to my spam folder 5y

Clwojick @MartinaLove sign up link above! ♥️ 5y

monalyisha This is a random question but: I finished an audiobook today & want to start a new one on my drive home from work; I'd have to wait until tomorrow to start it in order for it to count toward my total/the challenge, though, wouldn't I? 5y

wanderinglynn @monalyisha No, you don't have to wait. It's how many books you *complete* during the 6 weeks, 😉 5y

monalyisha @wanderinglynn Perfect! Thanks! 5y

Clwojick @rsteve388 sign up form link above! ⬆️⬆️⬆️ 5y

Clwojick @LauraBeth 😂😂😂 SAME! I love a good point system ♥️ 5y

Caterina @wanderinglynn So to be super clear, commenting on posts that were made before May 10, even if we were to comment today on them, doesn't count for points? Just want to make sure I'm following the rules XD 5y

wanderinglynn @Caterina that‘s correct. 5y
