    @fit, a 100 mile goal is more challenging for sure, you have to be in some kind of shape to do it.
    Miles done on the elliptical or riding the bike might be 'easier' so to speak, however I think that no matter what workouts you choose to do, consistency is the key.

    @jesn, once you set a target mileage, you can get an exercise ticker from www.tickerfactory.com and paste it in your signature, or just add your goal manually in your signature

    I count treadmill, bike, walking. I hope to add swimming and rowing this month. Good Luck to everyone. Hubby has agreed to walk everywhere with me. The nearest store is 2 miles away so we will use the car less....esp. with the price of gas. There's no public transportation here; so my feet and bike are my new friends.

    I hope it's ok for another newbie to jump in. I am setting my goal a lot lower than most, it seems, but I am aiming for 50 miles to start with- I might end up increasing it.

    My only goal for March is to lose SOMETHING! I plateaued last year then went through some medical issues so I stopped weighing myself because it was adding more stress to my plate. (literally! lol) But I'm finally relatively healthy again and as I started eating better and getting back on a normal exercise routine I weighed myself for the first time in about 6 months. It surprised me (happily) that I was still at the same weight as I was last year. So my goal for my first month is easy. Just lose something! :D

    I would like to join this challenge. My goal for March is 75 miles. I have two tickers, one for total running miles and one for this challenge.

    I've never tracked my miles before. 100 miles sounds like so much! But I need more motivation. I like the idea that March has 31 days... but maybe I'll shoot for 2 miles/day. I walk a lot, but I won't count walking to and from class. So 62 miles for me!

    everyone is welcome....you can join whenever you want...just say hi and add your goal...you are competing with yourself....i strongly suggest you pick a moderate goal to challenge yourself but not too high that you stress over achieving it.....you can always push past your goal and do better than you planned which always feels better than failing cause you didnt make your target miles....

    Once you create your ticker, how do you put it on the message board? Sorry I'm new at this.

    copy the code of the ticker and paste it in the text box under the "signature" tab above. I hope this helps.

    I copied the first one they did for bb Code not the html (this was after trying a couple of times) and it worked.

    Gee, this challenge is becoming very popular. 34 people joined so far. Nice :happy:
    I'll be keeping track of your numbers at https://spreadsheets0.google.com/ccc?key=tH_T4673y5o3kbdIHCPn0-g#gid=0
    I suggest you bookmark the address of the spreadsheet to check on everybody's progress. I'll do my best to keep it updated and once a week or so I will post a progress chart in the thread.

    Dinos - I tried to save the google sheet but was "denied" access. Not sure what I did wrong???? BTW - I love the format you do with the tabs!

    I'm in! I'm starting C25K in a week or two, so I'll go with a goal of 75 miles. I have nothing to judge that against..... but I'll give that a try.
    Thanks!

    Hi Dinos-- I don't mean to complain or anything, but when I go to the URL for the google doc, it asks me to sign in with a username and password. It's never done that before when I've wanted to look at the spreadsheet. Probably an error on my part, but...?

    As for my March goal: I've met a goal of 100 miles for each of the past 2 months. It's time to push myself a bit. My goal for March is 125 miles.

    Sorry, it's not your fault. I changed the security settings, you should be able to see the spreadsheet now.
