@ Dave and Dinos - You guys do realize we are getting our buts handed to us by Speedy and Janet on who is going to complete their challenge first right? :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy:

I am so far behind I'm not sure I'm going to be able to catch up but I'm still going to try.

I don't like to say this but because of an injury to my foot I don't think I will hit my running goal this month. I will be using my exercise bike but it's just not the same. Here is where I ended my running for October:

No desire to get out and hit the gym, so I did 5 miles on my elliptical

10/19 I ran 4 miles & walked just over 3, bringing my MTD total to 113.75.





I'm going to be out of town Monday through Thursday this week and will be tracking miles but won't have my home computer with my ticker & spreadsheet, so I'll update here on Friday when I'm home again.

dinos

@sufferlandrian: We're not finished yet. Here, I rode 10K, swam 600m and rode back another 13K. My own duathlon of sorts. It helped that there was an actual triathlon race taking place on the same roads and while I was on these roads I acted like I was competing in the race :embarassed: Nobody noticed, somebody even offered me a bottle of water at a water stop :bigsmile:

LadyPersia

77 miles completed so far. this has been a hectic month and I cant get the scale to move even though I am extremely active. Gotta watch my food intake.

@LITTLEWORM23 - Sorry to hear you hurt your foot....and I totally get that...but it's completely okay. The important thing is that you are strong and you're not going to let this set you back or keep you down. Right?? Be kind to yourself and grateful that there are other things you can do. :flowerforyou:

@DCMAT - Still utterly AHH-MAZING! :drinker:

@SPEEDF - Thanks! Love those motivational pics!!

@LAURA6887 - Have a great trip and see you when you get back!

@DINO - LOLOL!! And AWESOME day today! You've given me my challenge for the gym today too!

@LADYPERSIA - So nice to see you! I was getting worried about you no having heard from you yet. Glad you're still kicking it and kicking it good!! :flowerforyou:

Well folks.....I'm off to the gym now. I purposely took a much needed rest day on Friday but then yesterday I just didn't get it done so now I need to go put it into BEAST GEAR at the gym today. Wish me luck!!! :bigsmile:

Also....ONE MORE THING....it's the 20th today. Roughly 10 days left in the month, depending on what time zone and part of the globe you are currently in. If you're not one of those that has already made your goal and you're lagging behind a little or a lot, I think it's time to start the "PUSH FOR THE GOLD!!!"

Do your best to do whatever it takes to GET and/or STAY GREEN!!!



Carve out the time whenever and however you can......just give your best. Show yourself* what you're capable of. I know you have it in you.

Well, as Darkrider42 pointed out, I have 10 more days. While I'm nowhere near where I thought I'd be, I do have a much better understanding of just how inactive I am in a month. If I decide to do this again next month I'll have a better idea of how much I'll need to push myself.

In fact, I believe it's time to go out for a walk with my husband now. We haven't taken a walk together in over a month. Time to correct that.

I thought you guys were dead and here you are back alive LOL! I did 3 more miles this afternoon. Shall we all hold hands virtually as we cross the finish line this week?

Leeann1979

3.47 mile walk/jog today!

Only 4 miles done over the whole weekend. What a let down!

Will have to get the cross-trainer out tomorrow and Tuesday. Parents arrive for a visit on Wednesday for a week so won't be able to do much in the evenings :-(
