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!!

Besides, this is my nw

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!

Oh yeah I'm approved.

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

I would love to join in ! I'm Ashley ' date=' hello all ! How do we log in ? I have a fitbit I wear , I don't have mfp , but could get it if necessary .[/quote']

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.

Hello butter how ya feeling today? Is it easier or tougher then you thought?

Ok just got back from a awesome mountain biking trip. I put on just a smidge over 10 miles

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.

10 miles on the bike today.
