    I'm calling it good for mileage for August. My ticker is set at my original goal of 25 miles but I upped it to 40 mid-month so I am feeling pretty good about it. It is thunder storming here like crazy and supposed to last through the night so I do not anticipate any more miles today other than piddling around the house.

    August 1-31 56 miles walking.

    We started out when the sun came up then I went off by myself. The morning was beautiful...then it got hot. We took Bean for a puppy bath at the pet store. That was pretty fun even though we didn't know what we were doing! He's all bright and shiny now.

    I managed 11.58 miles today which makes goal plus a tiny bit!! I love it! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    Well I did hit goal and managed to go a little beyond that. Cracked thigh bone is healing nicely (slower than a slug on Valium) according to my doctor. So he is going to let me continue to ride, but no strenuous stuff. I am struggling with what goal for next month, so I dropped the goal to 175 miles. Oh well,

    08/29 - 2.0 miles walking
    08/30 - 2.0 miles walking
    08/31 - 11.0 miles biking
    08/31 - 1.0 miles walking

    Total: 233.0 miles

    Adding 1.4 miles tonight, doing laps at work. I was going to do my usual 1 mile (the hallways are boring and my feet hurt after walking on this hospital floor) but knew I could round up to 90 miles. I can't access my ticker here, but it's 90.0 miles total with an hour left in August.

    Maybe I'll try for some more laps after midnight and get a jump start on September. And it''ll be holiday pay as well as weekend and night shift pay. $$$$ :happy:

    Apologies for my absence throughout August - it's been difficult as my elderly and frail Mum died and I had (and still have) a lot to do.
    But I hope to be back and a better participant in September.
    So sorry for your loss!

    But you keep moving and you're still here. :bigsmile: :flowerforyou: Only you know where to set your goal, but do whatever you need to keep yourself motivated. I know for myself that I need a little success to keep me happy. :blushing:

    Great job! We'll see you in September! :drinker:
