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!!

Walked 2.4 miles this morning for a total of 15.4.

Missus butter continues to train for her half marathon. She ran 8.2 this morning for a total of 75.8 so far.

Just walked 3 miles, for a monthly total of 34.5.

I'm definitely claiming 2 miles today. walked lots. so 52.

Fitbit said they "might" replace it. Won't that be nice?? Until then, I will use my reliable old pedometer starting tomorrow now that I'm back home.

Waiting impatiently until tomorrow morning for my "official" post vacation weigh in. Trying not to get my hopes up that my third stall in 3 months has ended.

Great day today. Felt great all day! Got in 3.20 miles today which puts me at 111.15 miles to date. I am happy with my results so far.

Everyone is doing great! 7 more days to get in your walking, running, biking, cake hiking, pie snorkeling or what ever you are doing! Almost there folks!

Hi everyone,

I didn't hit 50 miles but got close. Too many things going on between work, watching World Series games, and seeing the Eagles in concert on surgery eve. I know there are a lot of folks from California on VST, and not trying to rub it in that my favorite team beat the Dodgers, but it would be nice to have the Cards win it while I am recovering from surgery. My husband and I are season ticket holders so I timed my surgery very well. I am taking my jersey with me to put around me during Saturday's game.

Keep moving for me, because I will probably be going slow for the rest of October. Now get back to exercising.

6.5 miles this morning (recumbent bike & elliptical). Monthly total is 41.

As of yesterday, 101 for the month. I'm pushing to get over 125.

Whoo hoo! That's my goal too! We've got this!

Okay I'm at 137.1 miles today...that just blew right past my 121 for last month! WOO HOO!!!

My goal is 150 for the month...*I THINK I CAN* since I have a week left!

Girl, it's all that spinning and whirling and whatever else you do! You rock!

Update Friday. 13 miles so far. 117 total

Ok I haven't checked for days but have been keeping track of my miles..

I've gotten in 23 miles on the bike.

So 86 all together.

I know I'm making this hard for myself by not getting some miles in today but my plan is to sit on my butt. I've been swamped at work and the sudden cold weather is making me lazy.
