Well the new month is here and there doesn’t appear to be a thread started yet.
Sorry Jason I’ve been quite enjoying these so far, so I’ll start this one.
My challenge for the month is to double my move goal 7 times after only managing it 6 times during August.

Good luck everyone!

I've seen quite a few challenges for September on Reddit too, but haven't received one from my watch. I had a monthly challenge or August but nothing for the new month. It is just a wait-and-see, timing thing?
 
I have to go 206 miles this month. I'm not sure I will even try for it, as the Mile goals are probably my least favorite monthly challenges. After having done 2390 exercise minutes last month, I might take it easy this month and just do what I normally do.
 
Since I managed 123 miles for August, my September challenge is to run or walk 129.2 miles or 4.3 miles a day.
 


Keep at it ... don't stop. Make it sort of a dance ... you know like the bus stop.
Pop in your favourite song when the alert to stand comes up and do a little jig ;) It'll feel good trust me.

Started doing this at my last workplace and after a week people would be walking by the IT area and see me and mid stride would wiggle as well some would twirl and give a high five stopping by. Good fun.

How big is your property?? Are you talking about a golf course with a hand operated lawn mower? Brings back memories.
it's a little under an acre of grass....walk behind mower takes around and hour/half...

Did you open the watch app and look for awards? I got a notification on my watch first thing this morning with the September challenge. Sometimes I miss the notification, but when I open the app it is listed for the month,

It finally dawned on me to open the iPhone app and sure enough, there it was. No notification on my watch but the iPhone screenshots made me go that route, and voila. Now I just have to walk/run 1.5 miles each day this month. My new exercise bike is gonna be lonely 😒

Technically, it’s 94 exercise minutes a day. It’s 1PM now....

That sounds like fun. This is the easiest goal I’ve had all year.

as long as you don't boycott your Sep challenge 😬
looking at @Jason Hensley profile page, he was last active here on 7/31, hope he's ok
That’s why I took it upon myself to start the thread.
I took the screenshot for the thread nearly 5 1/2 hours before starting it and had been waiting for Jason to appear.
I hope he is alright too and just busy elsewhere.
