    Got to add six more today. I havent decided if I'm taking next week 'off' (not training hard because I'll be on vacation this weekend) or if I'm going to go ahead and start pace training. I've got until Tuesday to decide. Knowing me, I'm sure I'll make it as hard as possible.

    I will gladly join the group even if it the 14th of Nov. I will say that I will go for 30 miles, trying to set a goal that I can really reach. Happy walking everyone!!

    I would like to join also. I know it is the middle of November but I hope I am still welcome to jump in. My walking goal will be to walk 30 miles. I use to walk as exercise for MFP up until a month ago and then I just suddenly stopped and never picked it up again, so I am hoping this will get my butt in gear. Happy walking everyone.:drinker:

    Added 3 more miles today. Bonus: I'm also becoming a faster walker, and can jog longer. Yeah!

    Hi, six miles walked today :happy:

    Wow, I need to learn the secret behind the strength. :noway:

    Updating my miles today - 3.15

    EDIT: What is the avg. speed that you guys walk ? I think speed also makes a big difference in terms of calories burnt. I do mine at around 4.1 miles, I tried 4.5 for couple of days but that's just too fast for me to carry on everyday.

    47 people joined the challenge, 30 have submitted results, the average goal for November is 49.3 miles. Considering that today is the 15th of the month we should be halfway to our targets (we are about 1/4 of the way as a group, 11 people are over 50%).

    See the progress chart. The higher you are on the chart, the closer you are to your goal miles. The blue bar shows your target and the red bar shows the distance you walked already. Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the spreadsheet, I_wanna_be_an_RN!! Looks very nice and organized. :happy:

    My progress in my signature is pretty accurate, when I finish a walk I put the miles down right away. I've been sick for the past few days, so I have only been walking about 2-3 miles at a time. Still drinking plenty of fluids and still losing weight so I'm not worried. :smile:

    dinos is doing the spreadsheet.....thank you to you for your effort...it is awesome to see everyone's progress....there are ALOT of people doing this challenge - i keep track of about 10 people on a speadsheet for an end of the year challenge and i know how hard it is to keep up with that number....thanks again....i have my own personal tracker on my home computer but it is fun/nice to see how others are competing in this challenge....

    Of course you are :) You can even make a ticker to show off your progress, dinos has a spreadsheet that shows how far we're all getting, and how much we've all walked as a group its pretty cool.

    Two more miles. Couldn't get as much in today. Gym was crowded and I couldn't concentrate.
