Beginners Challenge.... 50 miles in August

mjharman

I'm hoping to walk/sprint 7 miles around the lake tomorrow!

mjharman

I'm at 17 miles. Getting kinda antsy that I won't finish because it's halfway through the month and I have a bad blister

You gotta take care of those blisters! I've been there, done that...hang in there!

Plus 3 miles on elliptical... don't think I'll be counting them in my total, but want the reminder as they were done when it was raining and couldn't run outside. Will use them to set my goal for next month.

Just hit the 50% mark! Had to take a week off; started getting signs of shin splints.

I got 2 in yesterday and just did another 2.5. I wasn't sure if I could even do 50 but I think I will aim for 60 now that I'm almost there.

Definitely didn't do any miles this weekend but I'm still on track to finish strong. This week I'm aiming for 15 miles.

I only have 20 Miles completed, but I'm definitely proud of that number and looking forward to the next few weeks.

I am so glad someone started this thread! As of Saturday, am have 75 miles in this month so far and I have lost almost 20 pounds. The mileage is how you make up for mistakes you make; if u give into temptation. Hot fudge sundae costs 7.5 miles, that kind of idea.

Well, I just joined myfitnesspal.com over the weekend. I like the idea of the walking challenges, and I hope you have something like this every month! But, hmm, can I do 50 miles between now and the end of the month? That's 13 days, so it would be 3-4 miles of walking per day. It's certainly doable, especially since I'm vacation the next two weeks! I'm going to give it a try - 2 miles in the morning and 2 in the afternoons!!

It's a great way to get started, though!

RubyLou25

7 mile run tomorrow for half marathon training, so bumping it to 60 miles

MzManiak

Didn't run at all over the weekend.... got my cardio in by dancing.

Back at it this week.

Well, realized late last week that there was a map my walk app, downloaded it and was pleasantly surprised that i have been walking a little farther each walk than I thought. Now I will be able to log miles more accurately. Hope you all have a great day!

3.6 miles this morning. I changed my goal to 60 miles.
