Ok, here's the update - I pulled all the info I could from the tickers. If your info is wrong let me know

annasid78

Okay can I join in this late?

Now the next question. I wear a pedometer, and I track what I walk the WHOLE day. Does that count here too. Or just my formal exercise, counts??

Is it too late to join the walk challenge? I walk 6 days a week. And depending on the day, I walk 3-4 miles the days I walk.

Ok Foxygrl441 - I've fixed your goal to 200.

I_wanna_b_an_RN & annasid78 - I've added you both to the list. :bigsmile:

I'm taking today off - have a huge blister on my toe from yesterday's walk. Can't wait to get new shoes... only need to lose 2 more lbs!

Thanks! Owie on the blisters! When I got my generic shape up shoes, I got a blister on the toe closest to my big toe.

Just wanted to share with everyone that there is a really neat government website where you can enter the miles you walk/bike/run each day, and it will track how far you've walked across the USA. How awesome is that to be able to say you've walked the distance that equals across the states?

You can create teams as well... it's a very basic website... but it's interesting!

Thank you! I just made an account there!

I gave myself four miles for the weekend. The 5K on Saturday was 3+ for sure and Sunday I did an interval training routine. Based on far I went, I estimate I ran about two miles, but I'd rather stick to the low side since I dont really know. I'm hoping to get 10+ this week. Good luck to you all!!

Scorpiomom222

2miles done this morning. Probably more to come today. I'm at 7 miles.

Hello, today I have walked at least 5.5 miles and it has been yet another beautiful day but not sure how much longer this fantastic weather is going to last !!!!!

NeuroticVirgo

Did at least 4 miles today, we went for a hike/walk...its hard for me to call it a hike, because when I think hiking, I think mountain climbing, or some serious crawling around lol. But it was on & off a paved trail (some of it paved some of it just dirt trail), and LOTS of hills.... So that was fun. Better than my usual of walking around the block! haha

Suedre

Managed to get up and snag three miles. It's so lonely out there at 5 am. I'm due for another 3 tomorrow. Should be interesting given I have slide today and about 1000 chores. I'm seriously considering taking Thursday off from any training at all.

amelia_atlantic

I got 7 more miles (walking and running) since Sunday !

Scorpiomom222

Three more miles today! 1/10 of the way there!

Hi, my day off today and I did 5 miles then ate chocolate :sad:

I did the same--and had pizza!!

Scorpiomom222

Oh well. You won't die. At least we're being heart healthy by walking! I can't wait to see how many cumulative miles we've walked.

WalkingGirl1985

I know..I'll live.

TeamLeela

Suedre

Another early morning, another 3 miles. Tomorrow is my day off from running, I'm sleeping until 6:15... cant wait!!

bobbijomacknight

Just checking in since I haven't in a couple of days....still getting in my miles. I have another 8 miles over the last few days.

TeamLeela

2.4 walking miles...I will update my ticker including my goal at the end of the week. My miles have been low this week because of vacation. I am still counting gym machine miles as well as walking miles, but I have not been to the gym in almost a week.

amelia_atlantic

Got 5 more walking/running miles and hitting the gym tonight (will update tomorrow).

I'm on a roll and up to 27 miles!

Can I just say how nice it is to focus on miles? I feel so accomplished every time I update my ticker!

You're all doing great, keep up the good work!

barty

Hello, and another 5 miles walked today
