Call for Miles | Week 4

image via

Wow!  Today is the end of four weeks! How is it going? How was your week? 

Mine was busy (again) and it shows in my miles (again). My husband was out of town for four days and the kids had a million things going on. How do you make sure to get your miles in when life gets busy?

Leave a comment to let me know how many miles you got this week! Also, if you have any friends playing along, remind them if they haven’t commented in awhile. (Also – please double check that I am doing the math correctly.)

Call for Miles | Week 3

Happy Saturday!

How was your week?  I thought that my week was going to be easy but it filled up fast!  I was able to get some good miles in though, and I feel good about that. 

Today, I spent the day at my kid’s first USATF meet of the season and we had a great day for it – 72 degrees and not a cloud in the sky, which is rare for April in Oregon!

Leave a comment with your miles and good luck in week four!

Thoughts After Two Weeks

I removed people from our participant list that haven’t reported any miles in.  If you have a friend that had wanted to participate, tell them that it’s not too late!  I can easily add them in and they can still get to 100 miles by the end of June.  When I did my first challenge, I joined in about three weeks in and still managed to get to 100.

---

There are several of you that get a lot of miles each.  A lot, a lot.  Like so many, I don’t know how you do anything but exercise, a lot.  Anyway, those of you that are getting 15+ miles a week should consider making your goal higher. 

I don’t know if you have noticed Stacy over there…she is my sister and she is a marathon runner.  Her goal for the three months is 400 miles. If you would like to make your goal higher, just leave a comment with how many miles you think you can do by the end of June.

Of course, a goal of 100 miles is great.  After all, that’s my goal!

Also, Heather H. has made a spreadsheet to log her miles and she is willing to share it.  Maybe head to her blog and leave a comment and she can email it to you.  You can also leave your email address here and I’ll get it to her.  Her spreadsheet also tracks measurements and weight for a little extra incentive.  Thanks, Heather!

Call for Miles | Week 2

Hey everyone, just a quick note to remind you to submit your miles today. 

I hope you had a good week!  We were busy and it shows in my miles – much less than last week.  Be sure to check back tomorrow and double-check my math! 

Enjoy your weekend!

(I’m pretty sure that is what I look like on the treadmill.)

Today (Saturday the 7th) marks the last day of week 1. How did it go? Did you have any struggles? Any triumphs?

Let me know in the comments how many miles you did this week and I’ll work on updating on the sidebar by Sunday night.

Happy Easter, everyone!
