"Earn this award by setting a Move streak of at least 19 days."

I could make it - I do two easy days a week, so it's hard to maintain a streak for me, but currently I have a 17 day streak.

I completed this one yesterday. Strangely - and this was not the first time it's happened - I did not get a notification when I completed it.

I have surgery scheduled April 1 and no workouts are allowed for two weeks post-surgery, so I seriously doubt I will complete whatever April's challenge will be. Thanks to watchOS 11/iOS 18, I guess I'll be able to pause my rings for a couple of weeks, though.

Yea that’s bad news. Hope it’s not a streak one or requiring doubling rings or running a couple of miles. These are difficult if y’all have procedures to get done. If it’s the one where you only have to do it for less than a week like 2-5 times you can still do it once the doc gives you the green light to workout.

Will the surgery require you to be in hospital for days to weeks?

No, it's outpatient double-hernia repair. I'll be able to drive the next day (if I want to.) I'm encouraged to move around as much as I am able, just no workouts for 2 weeks, no lifting of anything more than 20 lbs. This is my second double-hernia repair, but the first was two surgeries 35 years ago and were more invasive surgeries than this one will be. I remember the first few days as being pretty tough, but we'll see how things go this time.

I'm fine with not making a monthly challenge. It probably means that May will be an easy one. (Not that I'll be taking it easy.)

Does your doc OK you for light walking? Go by how you feel especially with the anaesthetic and how your body is feeling.
