I can't believe it's going to be December tomorrow!

My goal for this month will be 300 minutes.

I'm also in. I've never done this before so it's hard to say how many minutes I'll do, but 400 sounds reasonable.

300 for me, bio!

georgiana, i think the 400 is very doable if you've been doing some ball work already. most of us doing this challenge have done more, less and somewhere in between depending on life and other challenges. glad to have you with us!

Glad to have you with us, Georgiana! 400 is doable and I have done more in a month, but since I know I'll be super busy later in the month, I've reduced my minutes. Feel free to make adjustments if necessary. You may get addicted to the ball like the rest of us.

12/1: 20 min
