Actually, it's Ithaca, NY (even though I've been told most of my life that it is Huntsville, AL).  Sorry it took me so long to get back on this. I had training. LINK.

I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...
diaryofthefatman.blogspot.com
I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)
I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!
I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?
Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.
I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.
Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

What about spiders? Wait no they lay eggs. Are we counting things that lay eggs? Cause if not that knocks out most fish, birds, and insects.

Are you counting spiders and seahorses as animals here?
What about mice that can't take long. I know rabbits are 28 days, but rodents must be quicker than that.
This is a tough one!

Gestation implies placental mammals, I'm pretty certain -- so yes, that eliminates insects, reptiles, and poor old monotremes. *sniff*
I'll guess that very short-lived mammals would have the shortest gestation, so voles? Shrews is a good guess too.
