October 100 Mile Challange!



Recommended Posts

Have you guys thought of creating a beginner's thread with a 50 mile threshold? I don't know if it would be redundant or motivating? I can imagine a few people out there wouldn't want to sign up for 100 right away, but 50 is easier to contemplate for someone who hasn't been active for a long time.

Thoughts?

It's just for motivation anyway! I never thought I would seriously be able to do 100 miles last month. My average was about 1-2 miles a couple to three times a week!!!! So.....

I say, just join in - kick it into gear - and do what you can! Nobody on here cares if it's called "100 mile" challenge! We are all just doing what we can!

If you do 50, that's 50 you didn't do last month!

True! and besides, this is my new mantra these days.

I do love it . Except I don't know if it necessarily calculates my strides 100% because I'm so tall . It's nice because I have the app on my phone I can track food ' date=' fluids , my weight , set goals for myself . I don't want something where I'm going to have to document my life in it if you know what I mean.[/quote']

Yes, I do know what you mean... I log my diet and workouts thru mfp. I watched the video on fitbit and was so intrigued!

Exactly.....just set a goal and go for it. Doesn't matter how many miles it is.

Howdy and welcome. You don't need MFP for this. Just come to this thread and post your daily mileage. Keep your running total. Set your goal and go for it. We all root for each other.

Ok I've only got about 1 mile in to day but I caught somebody's stomach bug and have been sick of 2 days. But I got approved today so I'm so excited waiting for date to be set.

Just got home a little while ago. Feel fine as long as I don't move too much. Not sure how much of that is related to these pain meds but I'll take it. If this is as bad as it gets I'll be ok. Worst part is I'm already bored.

Damn....edited to say...thanks very much for asking.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
