April got me in the habit of taking daily walks, so this should just be a part of my daily routine now.
I have got to cover 374.1 km (232.5 miles) to earn my award. Good luck, everyone!
2050 minutes training ... 66 p/d ... lets see. If COVID continues and the weather stays fine this could be done by cycling with my e-MTB.
Nothing earth shattering. Prepare a decent sales advertisement with photographs for an apartment I want to sell, not that it will sell any time soon. Update my CV for when it is possible to find a new job, again probably not any time soon. Figure out if / how I can ship blood pressure medication from the UK to Philippines or find a doctor who can give me a prescription for a suitable alternative available here in Manila. Continue to find new ways to entertain my daughters whist under lockdown.
Ok, here we go. Looks like Apple is CHALLENGING me again. Here’s what I got:
So, it will take effort, but I did something the other day that I figured would help prepare me for whatever Apple might throw my way. I asked a friend to give me a single digit number between 1 and 9. He picked 7. I decided that I will log a minimum of 7 miles per day in some fashion - walk, run or bike - every day in May.

Burn 3,920 exercise minutes or 126 minutes a day.
Going to be tough this month.Close all three rings for 31 days....As long as we don't get a 100% rainy day in May, definitely doable (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr; check!)

Oof, 75 minutes of exercise minutes a day. Eminently doable when I had hour lunch break walks I could take, now it's a big stretch. Probably no chance of this one.
Same. I will be using the 'Other' workout more often than I'd like as my AW5 rarely gives me enough credit for the exercise I actually do.
April: Get off your arse four times.
May: Close every ring every day.
Doable but I really dislike challenges that don't give you a day off. These things are supposed to be for fun and pushing a daily exercise regime without breaks is not a good fitness strategy.

I should mention that I’m excited to announce I ordered a Series 5 Apple Watch from Best Buy using their price match to get the $329.99 Costco advertised price. This will be and upgrade from the series 1 I’ve been sporting since my series 0 had to be replaced when the face became detached. But that’s another story.
I will also add that despite the face that Costco was backordered on the Space Gray and Silver models until June, Best Buy honored the price match and I’ll have it by next Wednesday!!
Now, back to your challenges.

My May challenge is to close all three rings 9 times. I am pretty sure I can do this
