What is Move-ember?

Exercise for at least fifteen minutes every day this November.

Complete one continuous session of at least 15 minutes of exercise each day. Any exercise counts. Walk, run, ride, swim, lift, stretch or take a class.

How it works

Join the Move-ember Quest, pick your first 15-minute exercise session and share your plan in the group. Invite your friends and family, and get ready for the month ahead!

Check in when you've completed your session. If you miss a day, continue the next day and keep the check-in honest.

The event runs from November 1 at 12:00 a.m. through November 30 at 11:59 p.m., New York time.

What the month looks like

The month includes 17 journey messages with tips, research and chances to reflect on your progress. Day 5 puts those daily minutes in perspective: fifteen minutes a day is 91 hours a year or about 45 movies' worth of taking care of yourself.

On Day 12, start gently when you feel resistant to exercising. Day 14 helps you plan for when life gets in the way. Halfway through, reflect on your progress and share how you want to finish the challenge. On Thanksgiving, take a walk after the big meal. Finish the month by sharing what you're proud of and what you'll keep doing in December.

Keep going when life gets in the way

When you feel resistant to exercising, start gently. Put your shoes on, walk the block or do a stretch, and then see how you feel.

Have a plan B in case life gets in the way: a home workout, a stretch routine or 15 minutes on the treadmill. Keep your daily session simple enough to fit into a busy day.

Help motivate your friends and family. Share your plans, exercise together when you can, and check in with each other throughout the month.
