October 100 Mile Challange!

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!!

Been MIA, but I have kept track of my last three days, 17 miles. 80 total for the month... Getting close but I will make it!

Went back to work this week, 12.5 hour night shifts. I walk around the parking lot on my 2 breaks and lunch but feel so tired by the time I get home I just go sleep. Weekend will be here soon for me hope to get my walk on :)

What a day! Went to Dallas last night with the wife. We had to pick up her mom at the Dallas Airport today. That place is a zoo! We walked the entire Grapevine Mills Mall as well as a lot of walking around in the airport due to her mom's 2 hour delayed plane. We walked a total of 4.9 miles today. My wife did great! She is well on her way after her surgery. I am extremely proud of her! That puts my total for the month at 92.60 miles! 11 days to go...No problem for another 38 miles.

Super awesome!!

3.0 miles walked today. The wife and I went and knocked out a little Christmas shopping. She took the new profile picture for me. We even picked up a little early Christmas present for her....a Fitbit Flex. No we are both tracking mileage!

So, that puts my total at 95.6 miles for the month. I should break 100 tomorrow easily!

my total is 40.25 so far. I know I am lagging behind. Been fighting fatigue the last week. My night shift and little sleep kicked my back side. I am happy that our park and lakes are back open so hope to pick up my mileage.

well my big achievement today was that I napped like a champion! All two hours between 11 and 1. Is there a challenge for that? One measly mile today for a 43.4

Wow! You're giving your new bike quite the workout! Good for you. It's all about starting out treating that b/tch the way you mean to go on! Don't let her get complacent. :P

Seriously that's very cool and it's not easy to do so good for you.

You guys keep me motivated! Added a 10.2 mile ride this morning Total 124.7.

Hi everyone, I have logged another 14.8 miles which puts me at 47.2 miles. I will get my 50 miles in by Thursday. Surgery is on Friday so don't expect to get much more in for the remainder of the month.
