OK so I'm upping my goal In a month where the days are getting shorter and colder and I'm scheduled to work more. :huh: (No, really this time! I've seen the schedule with my name on it.) Not sure if I'm crazy but I know you all will keep me moving. :flowerforyou:

150 miles for October :happy:

BeccaB1981

speedyf

I'm baaaaack!!!! :drinker:

Speedy is back!

@Sufferlandrian - Speedy's a great sport - see if she'll take your challenge!

@ Speedy - I was talking to Janet via a telepathic link via the newest martian colony (JK) and she said you were up for a challenge to see who could reach their goal first. :-) How about it?

Well...
I'm all for good kick in the b@tt.
I only count my running miles here, and...
I doubt I'll get there first, but it doesn't matter. That's a "bonus kick", helping me training for my half! :flowerforyou:

I'm in!! :drinker:
Let the show begin! :laugh:

@taximom

Nope. Nobody's crazy around here; we're just out of our minds. :laugh: Just kidding!
The goal is to challenge yourself, and ultimately, get out of your comfort zone.
That’s what you’re doing, and this is just awesome! :drinker:
GO GET IT! :glasses:

I cannot figure out the ticker....I can't seem to add miles? Can anyone help me? :ohwell: Do you have to make a new ticker every time? I can't figure out how I get to the one I made yesterday...

@superfox12082
This here:
http://www.TickerFactory.com/exercise/wUdoGxs

is what you need to copy/paste in your address bar to get in YOUR ticker.
Click on "edit/update data" and you'll be able to add your daily miles.
You'll have to do that every time to update your ticker and copy/paste the bbcode in here
so everybody can see you progress and keep you moving :drinker:
Hope this helps.

I'm logging my first ride September was a horrible month, but I WILL make goal this month!

TheRunningGuppy

In for 80 miles run in October!

Capfau

I am in - just have to figure out how to make a ticker

Ademar111

New! I'm in for 50miles this month.

momof2boyz832

I am in....trying this ticker thingy..

tam6van

I'm in! I've upped my goal by 10K. I'm shooting for 110KM this month

Libi_KK

Well I almost made my Goal last month so I will try once more for 100 miles.

Happy. That is such an excellent picture of us.

degan2011

Same goal of 70 miles.

JenRunTriHappyGirl

My October goal - 75 miles!

Went down because I will be doing a lot less bike riding and a lot more running at the end of the month to start training for my half marathon!

darkrider42

Gotta up my goal this month. It's going to be tough. Snow is starting to fall in the hills so I may be skiing for my miles by the end of October but lets since I went over in September, I'll up the goal to 250 miles.

Dave, Put me in for 250 miles. :-)

@ Dave, Janet and Dinos, I'm challenging you three to see who hits goal first. :-)

Sure, if I can lower my goal. Or maybe I'll just bike a bunch of miles LOL. Ok, truth is a love a challenge. I'm in with my usual 100 miles of running, walking, hiking but I don't expect to win.

Janet you rock! Here we go. :-) Now let's see if we can get Dave and Dinos to join in. If it makes you feel better I did up my goal by 50 miles and we have snow on the way.

I pretty much set my goal such that I usually hit it pretty darn close to the last day of the month. If I finish too early, there's potential for me to get lazy that last week. :laugh: But I'll see what I can do.

vernie87wb

I'm trying to get back into weight loss after a really long time off, so I'll set my goal for 20 miles in October. I've never done one of these, so hopefully it motivates me!
I did 1.5 miles today walking

Total for October - 1.5 miles

How do I join?

Go back to page 1 and read the very first post of the thread....

lisamziegler58

I'm in for 100 km.

Sorry you're having trouble. Which part are you having trouble with....creating it or including it in your update posts? After you create the ticker and click the final [NEXT] button which takes you to the final page showing you the final product, there will be a link for "bbCode" that you have to copy to your clipboard. (Note: Save this somewhere too....like a text file on your desktop....just in case). Then when you create your update post, write whatever inspiring message you wish and then hit enter a couple times for a *new* line, then paste the bbCode. When you post it, it should then show up. If you'd like to test it first, feel free to paste the code into a PM reply to me right here to see if it works. (You'll have to go to your Sent Messages folder to see if it did.)

Then next time you work out, you have to use the same device you used to create the ticker (Laptop, smartphone, iPad, etc) to go to www.tickerfactory.com. Enter the PIN you created, update your total miles, then click [Next]. Either re-copy the bbCode or grab it off your desktop text document. (I use my android phone and keep it "locked" from deletion in the clipboard.) You can use the very same ticker for subsequent months by just changing the text on the same page where you update your total miles.

Good luck and let me know if you have any further questions!

The very first post of this thread by BLUIZ13 (Denise) on Page 1 should cover it....if not, there are a couple more posts on this page (or the previous one) where it was explained again.

If you still have questions, feel free to shoot me a PM.
