    + 3 Biggest Loser Power Walk miles. I need pick up my pace this week... I thought 2 miles a day of walking- jogging --only-- would be a piece of cake when I set my goal.. its not time wise.

    THANKS Dinos!!!! :drinker:

    Need to make a correction to my 1/9/11 total miles. I was scheduled to walk 4 miles, but only walked 2.5.

    I'm beginning to realize that trying to put in miles on the treadmill at the end of the day is more exhausting for me than when I do it in the morning or afternoon. :noway:

    So, again, total miles walked on the treadmill today 1/9/11 = 2.5miles

    Here's to another day tomorrow :drinker:

    @ winterborn welcome to the challenge.
    @ nemrenu: It's a lot harder and more time-consuming to clock miles on foot. A distance that takes me 1 hour to ride on the bike, will take me roughly 2 hours to run it and 3 hours to walk it. An extra difficulty is that running doesn't allow for coasting :ohwell:

    Total miles in the challenge 557.7 by 26 active people (27% of 2,035 miles targeted). :happy:

    I went for a 6 mile hike on Sunday morning to Mt Parnitha, just outside Athens. This is at the start of the hike:

    On the way

    The next picture is a little misleading. It's not as high as it seems with the low clouds, it's only about 4,800 ft high and I'm standing at the top looking SE. The mountain to the right is Penteli, where the Parthenon marbles came from. Further back is the Aegean Sea.

    Thanks for sharing those photos from your hike, Dinos.

    I've always wanted to travel to Greece. Perhaps as a group, those of us in the MYA Challenge who are from outside of Greece should plan a reward trip if we make 100% of our goal? Not realistic, but nice to fantasize about. Of course, don't know what your reward would be, Dinos! :smile: We'd all make you work taking us on beautiful hikes / runs / bike rides in the area.
