Hey everyone! Great job on your totals for September and a huge thank you to Butterthebean for starting that post and challenging us all to challenge ourselves. We all wish BTB great success and a speedy recovery from his surgery. We know you will be watching and cheering us on. October is among us and with that comes a new challenge. 100 miles in 31 days! Walk, run, bike, whatever you do, log those miles and drink that water! Anyone who has been lurking in the shadows and watching last months challenge, now is your time to join us! It doesn't matter if you do 1 mile a day or 20, just go at your pace and have fun! For those of us who participated in last months challenge, I want to issue a personal challenge to add another 15 miles to what you did last month. After all, there is 1 more day in this month.

On a side note, this group has become very motivational for me as well as others. If you don't mind, let's let everyone know your real first name. If you would rather not and just want to go with your username that is perfectly fine. I will kick it off...my name is Ted. Good luck everyone and log those miles!!

You might be surprised in the next couple of weeks how your body responds. I say stick with both.

I'm sticking with both, Butter. Chugging along! I hope I start to see some changes in myself. Specifically, I'd like my butt to be in the general area in which it should be!

What is the squatober challenge? I'm intrigued..is it 200 squats/day? I need to do something like that!

My trainer put me up to it; someone started a page on Facebook called 'Squatober', and

The challenge is:

4,000 Squats (Beginner) (~130 Squats/Day)

7,000 Squats (Intermediate) (~225 Squats/Day)

10,000 Squats (Advanced) (~323 Squats/Day)

I'm aiming for 100 per day; so far, so good! Check it out, I think anyone can join.

My stats:

Today - 2.2 miles, 105 squats

Total to date: 4.6 miles, 305 squats

does dis count :

This comment might be in way left field but I need to ask... do any of you use compression garments for stomach arms or legs? Like the runners sleeves or runner compression pants...spanks anything.... do they help?

I use something called Flexees ...it's a tank and I wear one every single day (and for workouts also.) They really do help keep everything tight and in place, except for I'm larger chested. No matter how tight my exercise bra is I'm still just not a fan of jumping jacks.

Awesome job on the squats. I don't keep track of mine (maybe I should?) but I've done enough this week to feel the burn during and the pain after!

Great job, keep it up!

Current numbers: 35.8 (collectively from spin, treadmill, stairclimber, and running around the gym track.) My next big plan is to take it easy this weekend...

4 miles yesterday. 8 miles total.

aahhh...ok! Got it! Well, I'm going to join the squatober challenge with you. I'm going to do 71-100 squats/day! Thanks for the info!

Hi all! I love reading everyone's progress...even if I don't comment on everyone's posts, please know that I'm reading and smiling at everyone's awesomeness! So..yesterday I got in only a 2 mile walk. This brings my total to: 14.13 miles. I have walked 6.3 miles in 3 days. The rest has been on my bike. I wish I could do more walking and running (can't run for my life!) but I simply don't have the time to do this challenge by just walking. I love my bike for this reason. Plus, I can really ramp up my intensity on my bike. But, now that the weekend is upon us, I plan on doing a fairly intense hike (for me)...the hike has a 314 ft gain from the lowest point. I start at 280 ft and max at 544 ft. I love this workout! I hope the weather holds up....good luck to everyone! Let's get the most out of our weekend workouts!

Alright, so I haven’t posted my miles daily, so summing up my week so far.

October 1^st: walked 3 miles – biked 3 miles

October 2^nd: walked 3 miles – biked 3 miles

October 3^rd: walked 3 miles – biked 3 miles

Total to date: 18 miles and very soar!!

Morning all! I'm a few days late, but am totally in!
