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!!

But you still got 2.21 miles in! Good for you.

I feel you though. My husband, asking if I was going to walk with them this evening: "honey do you want to limp around the block with us?" :/

3.65 miles today. Knee feels good and miss riding the bike but I think I will give it a couple more days before riding. My total is at 121.1 miles. Great job everyone, let's finish the month off strong!

Oh big whoop I got .6 miles today. 54.8.

I don't know what to set my November goal at because I don't even know if I will make my second October goal. First oct goal was 40' date=' second was 60.

(This sounds like a math problem). Therefore November should be..??[/quote']

Go for 50 halfway between September and October's goal. I won't be riding any more this mmonth unless I get in a ride this weekend. I will be all walking in November and more than half of December. If you live where it is warmer, you might get more outdoor workouts in.

Couldn't help myself. Cabin fever setting in. I took a second walk this evening...another 2 miles. Puts me up to 26.3 for the october.

I'm recovered from my dog bite and back on my bike. Rode 10 miles yesterday bringing my total bike miles for the month to 90 (my goal was 300!) I'm still planning on my Halloween 21 mile ride though.... so I'll make one part of my goal at least!

6 more miles today. 59 for the month!

I am probably done for the month with the miles. I ran a mile this morning to get some blood flowing before doing some stretches so I could sit all day for work in my chair. I will run 1-2 more miles this afternoon before cross fit . Unless there are some runs as part of cross fit workouts, I will probably add 1-3 miles per day until the end of the month. Hope everyone has a good end of the month with their running challenge.

1.5 miles today for 56.3 total

3.3 mile run and 2 mile walk today.

So far this month:

Run: 44.3 (goal 60)

Walk: 60.2 (goal 40) Over!!!

Bike: 43 (goal 50)

Total: 147.5 miles

I'm going to be short on my running goal because I missed 4 running days, but overall a huge improvement from last month.
