    Hey everyone! here we go again. I'm in for another month. since the weather is nicer, I will be getting more walking in. Headed to the gym in a little bit to start this month off right. Shooting for 75 miles this month.Lately, I've been setting my goal too low, so I want to challenge myself to go 75 miles.
  • I'm new to MFP I just joined last Monday so I'm on my 6th day so far and I have walked 15 miles so by the end of may I'm going to walk 60 miles. Hopefully I can do it lol :smile:

    Last month was pretty sad due to the bum foot. Not sure what the story will be this month (headed over to see the foot doctor on Tuesday) but I think I can do some shorter bike rides and will just start with 50 miles for now!

    I new to the challenge but would love to join. I really have no idea what is a reasonable goal for me so this month will be my test month. 50 miles in the month of May sounds like a nice starting point that I can reach. (12.5 miles a week)

    I want to try this, but I'm not sure what a good goal would be. Is it just walking? Running? Or any forward movement?? LOL. I have been biking to work regularly, so if I count cycling miles, my goal would have to be set pretty high. If it's walking/running only, I'm a beginning runner, working on Couch to 5K, so the goal would be low!!
  • Walked 4 miles today, the weather is great! Happy walking everyone

    @ Sararuth: You can add cycling miles, just make yourself a ticker and keep it updated. I dunno what a good goal is, I can tell you that the average goal in this thread is about 75 miles per month.

    @ Janna: I can't keep track of minutes or calories or any other units. We only count miles or kilometers.

    Attached are the results for the April challenge:

    You can see the details in the spreadsheet.

    I'm in again! I met my April goal just barely, so I think I will keep the same goal to see if I can do better this time! 50 miles for me in May!!

    Okay. I'm going to try this with a goal of 150 miles.

    I hesitate to even type that, because it seems so high, but I did some calculations between my biking to work and the running for C25K and it seems like a reasonably attainable goal if I keep up with the cycling I have already been doing. Plus, I went for an almost 20 mile ride with a friend today, so I'm already off to a really good start. :)

    Off to make my ticker now!

    Got my first 5 miles under my belt!

    I don't have any other races planned until May 30th, which is another 5 miler. So I gotta get 65 miles in between now and then. :smile:

    1.67 miles in on the treadmill. Hopefully after the kids go to bed I can get in some more!
  • Totally doing this challenge again. Upped my miles by 10. So I am going to try to do 60 miles this month. I went over my goal of 50 last month. I really like this challange.
