It’s the second month of year. You know, the one where you say: What was I thinking last month when I gave up (booze, sweets, fries, cheese …. and so on), and I started daily (weights, HIIT, running, biking, swimming, hiking ... and so on)??? And now I’m hungry and in pain!
Sometimes we go a little overboard with New Year’s resolutions, but that’s what You Can Do It February is for. No need to completely fall off the wagon. Just dial it back a bit and focus on one or two small things this month and start building a new good habit (or break an old bad habit).
General monthly instructions are below, including the monthly picture scavenger hunt.
How It Works
The primary purpose of these monthly challenges is to keep track of your daily step goals for the month; though many of us track other things as well, like body weight exercises, sleep, trips to the gym, logging food, etc. This is not a competition to see who can do the most of whatever, instead it is a challenge to measure your consistency. So whether you do 1k, 5k, 10k or even 40k steps a day, this is measuring how many days out of the monthly total you can hit your goal.
Some might have a constant goal of 10k steps every single day and others might have a variable goal throughout the week, (and some might even plan days off!) for example.
Monday -> Friday = 10k steps a day
Sat & Sun = “6k steps a day,” or “not tracking”
Regardless of how you structure your daily goals, the only thing that matters for the monthly challenge is whether or not you reach what you set out to do.
Suggested Posting Format
1) Post either your constant or variable step goal.
2) Keep track of the # of daily goals achieved out of the monthly minimum and or monthly total
Picture Scavenger Hunt
This month’s scavenger hunt is Word Play. Look for signage with puns, double meanings, dad jokes and the like. Look at signs in front of churches, stores, schools, movie theaters ... just keep it clean. You CAN do it! (Oh look, it’s made out of CANs. See what I did there?)
Posting
Although you certainly don’t have to post daily, you’ll likely stay closer to what you set out to do by updating the thread several times/week
Injury Notice
If you injure yourself during the month and need to scale back due to the injury, then all you have to do is adjust your goal for that period. If you normally do 10k steps a day but pull a hamstring and decide to do minimal walking (2k steps a day), then all you have to do is change your goal.

Went to Lausanne yesterday to visit the Olympic Museum and then the Van Gogh Experience. The lighting wasn’t ideal in either museum for photography, but I did snap this quote by the man who re-started the Olympic Games, Pierre de Coubertin.

Here's a picture of the LovePop card that I got the mrs. for Valentine's:
Sadly, fewer pictures since I've been apprehensive about walking outside, due to the rise in Asian hate crimes. 😢

Thanks @Carrie71 -- Spring is on it's way, its not here yet. When I took that pic a few days ago it was below zero. Look how puffed up her boyfriend was ... looks like he's out of Angry Birds.
