Week 2: 22.7 miles

I'm finally on the mend! The last two days I've been able to exercise my full 30 minutes and 6 miles! Yeah! Feels so good to get my heart rate up, to start breathing heavier, and to start sweating! :scared2:

I've been feeling very tired the past few days, so haven't gotten out to walk. I was hoping to make it up this weekend, but they're predicting a Noreaster.

Goal: 25 miles

So far: 14.5 miles

The month is half-over and I'm more than half-way to goal. Just got to stay on track... I can do it!

Getting in the swing of things. 22 miles this week for a total of 37 miles so far. Everyone keep up the good work.

Week 2: 10 miles

16 total.

Weather's been grooooss here (mid-40's and raining all week!), but is supposed to clear up Monday, so I can get some real miles in.

Week 2

18.75 miles

Total 31 miles

29 miles to go

We have had record temperatures this week. Temps went as high as 92 degrees. I woke this morning to temps of 56 degrees. What a wonderful difference. The drop in temps have me so energized. I might get my miles outside this weekend.

Another awesome week everyone! WooHoo!

It's been a bad week. I'm having trouble staying motivated - specially food wise. I thought I wouldn't have a problem meeting thois month's low goal, but its going to be close. I'm going to need to get out and get some serious walking in to reach it.

Goal: 25 miles

So far: 18.5 miles

week 3: 39 miles

Week 3 55 miles

week 3: 10 miles. Not a good week at all, started going to school so it's been kind of hard to get my miles in. I may fall short of my miles this month, but I will try hard to get the rest in. Good job and good luck everybody!

I'm signed up for a 5k run through a cemetery and golf course Halloween evening, that should put me very close to 100 miles for Oct.

october miles: 103.8 (16.2 short of goal--DANG!) I was bummed that another month has gone by with me getting close but not making goal, so I went back and added up all my miles since the July Challenge. In the last 4 months, I've biked 589.5 miles! I could have ridden my bike to Denver and home again 5 times! So...hello November! Time to try again. :scared2:

Close, but no cigar. I should have been able to do this. I'm really disappointed with myself.

Goal: 25 miles

Completed: 23 miles
