100 mile challenge



Recommended Posts

I downloaded the "Map my Walk" app on my phone. My wife and I went and walked at a track not to far from the house. We walked .78 miles. I know that doesn't put a dent in the 100 miles, but it's a start. I felt good and wasn't as tired afterwards. How do I go about sharing or is this the honor system...lol?

So far for today I have in 12.6 miles. Not the 20 I was hoping for, but the day is still young.

I think I will participate in terms of running.

Currently my warmup is about 3 miles for 4 days a week and 2 miles for 2 days a week. That puts me at 16 a week or 64 in 1 month. I could add 2 miles of running after each workout to add another 48 miles over the next month. That would push it a little bit over 100 and certainly not too much cardio when split up into 2-3 mile increments before and after cross fit or power cardio (cardio with body weight exercises or light weights) at home. My body is very conditioned to running 3 mile increments without much effort (about 5 k), so it should not be a problem combining it with whatever my daily workout is.

Good job!

I rode a creek path today and logged 7 miles and some change!

So my total is 21.7 miles!

My legs where like rubber today I think I need a rest. I might do that tomorrow.

My husband just came in from unloading the bikes and told me my front tire had a "profound" rub from the brakes so it was like I was riding with the brakes partially on today :P

Maybe that's why it was so much harder :D

New bike for me!!!!

Fiddle glad your joining!!!!

Thanks for the link LV... and thanks BTB for starting this!

I'm going to join in! Mine will be mostly treadmill and spin class.

My treadmill does NOT count distance/miles, etc. (I know how crappy is that? People don't believe me when I say that.) It only counts heartrate, time, incline, and speed. So I need to find an app for my phone that will count the miles. I'm not used to carrying my phone with me either but I will give it a whirl!

Spin varies b/c the instructor does different things each week, but I try to go 2x a week and we usually log between 14-20 miles per class. It's an hour long class and she does an "advanced" class that is an hour and a half (which I'm too chicken to try...but maybe I will try that too someday this month!!)

Excited to jump in! Thanks all...

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
