100 Miles in January 2013 Challenge

The cold can make us want to stay in bed. WE ALL KNOW, we need to keep moving. What better way than a movement challenge.

I am starting a January challenge to walk/run 100 miles in January (60k) Log in your miles each Saturday of January.

For those of you wondering, that means TOMORROW it starts..

Who can hear the Rocky theme song in their ears right now? If not, what song will be your January motivation?

I really like this idea! However my elliptical only showed 9 miles...I did 3.9 hrs for the week. I think my odometer is wrong. But my heart is definatly in it!!! Thanks for the challenge!

1/1-1/5 17.5 miles. I'm so thankful for this challenge. It keeps me accountable!

Checking in: 12.1 miles. I will do better next week.

12,4 this week :) would have been a lot less if not for this challenge and I aim for a lot more next week :D

11 miles for me!! Jan 1-5

Yay for us!!!!

can I join in too? I need motivation, and challenges like these help so much!

my fitbit says from 1/2-1/5 13.14 miles.

Welcome aboard!

This is just the hardest month for me to get in any mileage!!! Last January I only managed a measly 12 miles! But I was recovering from a hysterectomy and my activity was pretty limited. It wasn't until march that numbers went up, and that was around 54 Miles.

So if I can beat that I'll be stoked . I don't walk daily (walking isn't very effective for me unless it's up a mountain with a pack on my back :P ), but I need to muster the energy to maybe climb the treadmill a bit further ....

And I do have a winter goal of doing a distance snowshoe....,maybe 10 Mike's, with a couple 1000 ft incline.... so we'll see ...

Week 2.

6.-12. I did 22.7 miles and that makes the total of 34.8 from 1.-12. jan :)
