October 100 Mile Challange!



Recommended Posts

Every mile I see posted is such a great motivation. No matter the totals, every mile is one mile better than sitting on the couch. LOVE these challenges. I really do not like exercise, I always found it boring and had to force myself. I was motivated to buy a bike last month after the September 100 mile challenge started and my bike arrived mid way through. I never believed it would be something I would enjoy so much. I look forward to it, and am counting the days to daylight savings time so it stays lighter a bit longer for me to get my rides in after work. You are ALL a huge inspiration!!

I added 7.2 miles last night for a total of 121.76.

You are doing so well! People like you and so many others on this challenge make it worthwhile to commit to this. Keep up the good work. I also have an exercise bike and I absolutely love it! I like to walk and hike as well. But, the walking and hiking depend on the weather. I can ride my bike at any time. You have to do whatever works for you!

So in honor of my 3 year anniversary of the sleeve I went to women & weights and did a 1 hour lifting workout, followed by my beloved spin class BUT I was sporting these bad boys:

MY NEW SPIN SHOES!!!

They have the little clip on them so I'm "locked" in when I spin. LOVE THEM!

Sorry to be a downer, but daylight savings time ends on Nov 3. It will be darker when you get off work. Time to start getting up early!

i lost my fitbit somewhere in the cave/ocean/hike/pool/ferry/hotel. But beore that, I had 3.5 miles on it and that doesn't count the hour long HIKE into the cave nor the 30 mins of swimming.

Edit: That puts me at 50.2 miles. I should be really excited today because of what I accomplished but I lost two pitches and lost my new fitbit and it's being kinda sh@tty considering I'm on vacation and all this bad news is piling up so I'm sulking. I will go sulk and then I will come back and Celebrate that i freaking hiked a cave today!

If you had stuck with cake hiking, you'd still have your fitbit.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
