Talking Come Join the New Year's Day 24 Hours of Exercise Marathon!

It's hard to believe how fast 2013 has flown! For over 10 years, we've been doing a 24 hour exercise marathon on New Year's Day. It's a fun way to bring in the new year. Everyone chooses a one-hour time slot, does a workout, and then posts what they did afterwards. Since we have people in all time zones, there is always someone somewhere in the world doing a workout.

Who would like to participate? Which time slot would you like?

I'll post a schedule below in EST (since that's the time zone in which VF is based), and hopefully, we'll be able to fill the full 24 hours. Please let me know your time zone or check here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

We will begin at midnight, Tuesday, December 31st and go all through Wednesday, January 1, 2014.

Please feel free to PM me or post whichever time slot(s) you would like to take. It's fine to share time slots, so please take any time that works for you. (You can also take more than one time slot.)

We need VFers from all over the world to participate!

Please pick a time slot that works for you, and after you work out, please post on this thread and tell us what you did.


Here is the schedule:

Could I have the 9 AM EST slot. I live in California and always workout at 6AM on my day off so that would translate to 9 AM EST.
Thanks and Happy New Year!

I'll take the 1PM slot. That's 10AM PST and I'll be working out a bit later that day.

Has it really been over ten years? Wow!

I'm a west coast night person so, as usual, I'll come back later and fill in some blanks in the schedule.

Hi

I'm in the UK and could do UK 11.00am workout. I don't know what that is in your time zone.

Laura

Looking at a converter 11.00am GMT it is 6.00am EST.

Once again I'm skiing in Japan, so I can take any slot between midnight & 4am EST.
Those will be my afternoon runs, some with my lovely instructor.
