Final Call for Miles | Round 3

Today is the last day of 2012, which means today is the last day of round 3 in this 100 Mile Challenge!

Congrats on making it to the end. It is so exciting for me to see people making their goals. It is equally exciting for me to see people that are continuing to try and not giving up. If you finished, feel free to take a badge (just right click and save):

Leave a comment with your miles for the week. Be proud of yourself! You did it!

Round 4 begins tomorrow and calls for miles will go up on Mondays for the next three months!

Round 4 | Begins Jan. 1

January 1 is just around the corner! I can’t believe that 2012 is coming to an end.

If you have “exercise” as a New Year’s Resolution, then this is the perfect challenge for you. This challenge will help you stay motivated to move.

Here’s how it works:

·        Each challenge runs for three months (Next up: Jan. 1-Mar. 31) 

•            Each mile you walk or run equals a mile in the challenge
•           Every 15 minutes of other exercise equals one mile(biking, yoga, tennis, swimming, etc)
•           There are NO half miles - push yourself to go that extra half mile or another seven minutes and count it as a mile. You can do it!

Each week, I will put out a call for miles and you will report how many miles you did that week.  I will add your name and miles to the sidebar.  Be sure to check back to make sure that my math is correct! Each week, I also hope to post some motivation - something to make us want to move, a favorite healthy recipe, etc.  Feel free to contact me (batnt99 at gmail.com) if you would like to do a guest post.  

Join in and let’s move!

Leave a comment to let me know if you are interested in Round 4. Feel free to invite your friends to play along with us! The more the merrier. 

Call for Miles | Week 12

Last week was a little rough for some of us. I hope this week was better. Tell me in the comments how you did.

Don’t forget, we have just ONE week left of round 3. There will not be a Call For Miles next Sunday. It will come next Tuesday instead. That means that this coming week, you have two extra days to meet your goal. 

Round 4 will start next Wednesday (January 1). Let your friends know and invite them to play along!

I hope everyone is ready for Christmas. From my house to yours:

Also, congrats to Stacy who got engaged this week!

Call for Miles | Week 11

I can’t believe that we are almost to the end of round 3! How was your week? 

I did not do as well as I hoped, but I believe that I can catch up. Maybe if I do it early, it will go better.

When do you exercise?

Let me know your miles this week.

Also, please, please check my math! I realized this week that I was off on one persons total by eleven miles. 11 miles! That’s a lot so please check for me now and then.

Have a great week everyone!

Call For Miles | Week 10

We have just over 3 weeks left in this round. Today, I wanted to give up on my goal. I had a bad week (exercise-wise). Then, while surfing the ‘net tonight, I saw this:

I realized that, while I may need to adjust my goal, I simply can not give up on it. Because giving up on it, means giving up on me.

So, in the next 21 days, my goal is 30 miles (2 miles a day, 5 days a week) which will be a total of 81. I’m going to round it down to 80…just to make it easy.

How was your week? Do you need to readjust? Are you doing just fine as it is? Are you ready for Christmas?!

Let me know in the comments.

Also, anyone thinking they are up for another go round starting January 1?

Call for Miles | Week 9

How was your week? I hope it was good. I hope you were able to get all the things done that you wanted to do. And, I hope you were able to get some good sweat in.

I was on some medication this week that made me so dizzy and nauseus that I didn’t do much for about three days. I was still able to get a few workouts in but I am feeling like I might not reach my goal.

Leave a comment with your miles. Also, let us know what your goals for the week are.  Good luck!
