    6 miles today + 38.45(prev. group total through anna441) = 44.45 (new group total)

    I'm in Washington D.C. for a week so I'll be walking a lot this week!!

    Count me in I am starting with Rhode Island too, slow and steady!


  • The formula to track the miles will be the tried and true:
    "_____ (my miles today) + ______ (my total miles) + _______ (total group miles) = ________ NEW TOTAL GROUP MILES"


    Maybe I am not getting this, but if we add our miles for today to our total & then add that to the group, won't it be overstated because we will be adding our personal total in everyday? Shouldn't we just add our daily miles to the total group miles for it to be accurate? Our personal total & the group total should be different, right?
  • 5.25 miles today + 44.45(prev. group total through bstamps12) = 49.70 (new group total)

    We missed MarieS14's miles, which is 5.5 that she walked in two days. This brings the group's total to 55.2. MarieS14, we are simply adding our new miles to the group's miles. We skip the middle part of the equation because our previous miles walked is included in the group's miles already.

    I walked 2.37 miles this morning. This brings the group's total to 57.57.

    Morning all! Happy New Year!

    Sorry if the previous formula was confusing. I guess we can just use this simpler one:

    3.50 miles (this weekend) + 57.57(prev. group total) = 61.07 (new group total)

    Hi Ladies, This is the formula for the challenge:
    ____ (my miles today) + ___ (prev group total) = ____ (new group total)
    I will do it since walking is my exercise of choice. Got 3 miles in this morning.

    So yours would be: 3 miles (my miles today) + 65.57 (prev group total) = 68.57 (new group total)
    i have 3.26 miles done...i keep my ticker updated below...

    So yours would be: 3.26 (my miles today) + 68.57 (prev group total) = 71.83 (new group total)

    I am not sure how I am going to track this I just got my heart rate monitor going and I was running for 40 minutes yesterday so I think I am at about 4 miles. I will start there I guess.

    4 + 71.83= 75.83..... is this right??

    Today was a cross training day so I just started out with a half mile warm up, but I will include it here....

    0.5 + 75.83= 76.33

    State challenge...MA at 125 miles.....8.85 miles done and 116.15 to go!

    I just got in 1 mile today. Spent the morning taking down the Christmas tree and putting things away.

    1 + 76.33 = 77.33 New Group Total

    1 + 79.43= 80.43 New group total

    The gym was packed and I had to wait for the treadmill, when I finally had the chance to run, I did not get much time before my PT session. I will have to change my workout times at the gym, until the New Years crowd dies down.

    5 (mine today) + 4 (bluiz13) + 80.43 (group total from teetee1281)= 89.43 (new group total)

    oh, now I see how the equation works. I'm a little slow. I actually haven't put in any miles yet, but I am going to the gym tomorrow and will be adding my first miles of the year then. Thanks for the breakdown!

    Another group member added your miles to the total for you in a previous post. So from now on just add your total for the day to the formula. Have a good day!

    TO THE NEXT MEMBER ADDING MILES: THE GROUP TOTAL IS STILL 102.98
