Laura a new bike for you would be awesome. A month ago you wanted nothing to do with it.... Now look at you.... Investing in your future fitness.

I know how you feel Laura-ven I got a road bike last weekend but threw my back out before I could ride it ( other than a test ride ) so I can only stare at it. I go back Monday to see if I can be released to ride again....can't wait

Hope you get cleared! Nothing like having a new toy and not being able to use it..

New bikes are exciting. Get a good pair of riding shorts to go along with your new ride

I keep adding things to my bike. Next year I plan on getting custom wheels.

Hey folks. Did my fastest ever 10k this morning... 63 minutes. Plus I ran an additional 2.5 miles back and forth to the car.... That's how far away I had to park.

So day 23 is 8.7 miles.... Which is 102 total. Thrilled to have made my goal with a week to keep adding to it.

Thanks to all of y'all that joined in and inspired me. Keep pushing. We are all gonna make it.

Great job! Love the photo the medal, everything.

I'm starting a new weight-lifting class next week ...2x a week 1 hour each session, called "women and weights" and my plan is to go directly from WAW (from 10am-11am) to spin (11am-12noon) Anyway, that is the plan but we shall see, my cardio might suffer by me doing more weights (noooooooo! ==clings to cardio==)

Anyway, great job BTB for not only reaching your goal but obviously you are going to surpass it. YAY!

Another 5 on the elliptical last night, just finished 5 on the track this morning. I'll do another 5 tonight on the elliptical, so that'll put me at 69 miles, with 31 to go.

You guys are doing great today. I'm a little sore from all that bridge climbing h yesterday but I woke up to clear skies and what feels like the first break from summer heat we've had all year... So I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a trail run with the dogs. We did 5.5 easy miles for a total of 107.5.

Ugh mother in laws birthday today... The only running today will be her mouth criticizing me!

What could she possibly criticize you for?!? But if she does, maybe you can get in a few miles by running away from HER!

Just knocked out a 4 mile ride. That puts me at 89.7 miles. About to go do some walking with the wife and then another ride tonight.

Good luck today everyone. I am sure you will do great. Today is a rest day and I will cheer you on from the sidelines whether you are jogging, running, biking, rowing or what not. You guys are awesome.

That is really great to get into the strength training next week. I known once you start seeing the many benefits from lifting from lost inches to improved endurance / stamina / power (your spin will get easier) to improved bone density to improved weight management (easier to eat more or just some treats without being punished), you will love it. Trust me on that one. I was a non believer in weight training until earlier this year and loved my cardio. Now the tables have turned, but I still manage to do the cardio, just in a more intense manner. Let us know what you think about the lifting after the first week. I am sure you will feel it. <evil grin> cheers!
