    Great response! How exciting!!!!
    We start tracking on Monday.

    Here is my suggestion:
    Group total so far: XXX miles + my miles XXX = XXXXX miles so far

    So evertime you log in to add your total copy and paste the last one and add in yours.

    What 'cha think? Opinions?

    And how about a goal as a group for the month?
    Just thinking outloud but it would be cool if our little group could do, say, 2000 miles in the month of August?
    There's 20+ of us so far.
    I know personally I am going to shoot for 200 miles.

    That sounds like a good total since some are planning for a marathon and some not quiet so ambitious. Would we also include miliage from an eliptical or just run/walking?

    i think it should be like

    TODAY I RAN/WALKED XXXX + MY TOTAL THIS MONTH SO FAR = MY TOTAL

    MY TOTAL + GROUP TOTAL = XXXX

    so that we can have a total for ourselves as well.. not just the group's

    Good luck everyone, hope to join you in September!!

    tickerfactory.com.................go!!!



    How did you get the tickerfactory on to your profile?

    You add it to your signature. Select the bbCode model and copy and paste it to your signature.

    Count me in. This is a great challenge. I log my workout miles on dailymile.com but will also log them here. Between work and workouts, I want to average 10 miles per day. ( I wear a pedometer that I have calibrated with my treadmill and gps.)

    I want to make sure I am logging correctly. Is it just running and walking miles or are any sports requiring running also okay? I play soccer a couple times a week and want to know whether or not to include that.

    Thanks!

    I'd like to participate as well. I REALLY need some sort of goal to shoot for. I'm going to aim for a minimum of 50 miles in August - but plan to exceed that number. Thanks for the idea - looking forward to it. :)

    Sweet! I'll join since I want to keep up my running and want some external pressure to do so.

    I also typically walk 3 miles/day roundtrip to work. Should I count that too?
