Virtual Walk Across Texas

fridayjustleft04

Good job! This week is going to be a low one for me. I'm experimenting with less workouts so I can eat more of my exercise cals. I just wanna see if it'll speed up weight loss. If I don't see a drop (or gasp! there's a gain), I'm going right back to 3 workouts a day. Lol

35.55 miles this week - combo of running, swimming (a whole .1 miles!) and stationary bike. The Row the World Challenge is really making me work and boost my totals. So, I am now up to 122.2 miles :happy:

Awesome!!

I did 0 hours last week. I can't start running for another 2 weeks but I started walking again today so I am really excited about that!

This week I took it easy and didn't do a whole lot as an experiment to see if the system shock would up my weight loss. (It sorta did..I lost 1.5 lbs this week as opposed to 1, but I don't count decimals on here). Anyway, that means that I didn't rack up the miles. Just 5.5 for me this week. Hope everyone else had a good week! I did..braces on Tuesday, bf's birthday yesterday, and today (my weigh in day), the scale finally said I've lost 60 pounds.

Congrats on the 60lbs!!

I am logging in my 6 miles for last week. It was way too hot for me to be out this weekend. I joined a walking group, hopefully I will have some additional motivation.

Late checking in this week, but I'm up to 149.8 miles. Will this heat please go away???

Congrats to fridayjustleft on reaching 60 lbs - that is awesome!!

Omg I've been slacking so hard. I only did 5.25 miles this week. My lack of walking is effecting my running, as well. My endurance is shot. I can do only about half a mile at a time without wanting to die. Bf's speed has gone down, too. Because of this, I've reinstated our run days as M, W, Th, and walk days T and F..maybe the weekend if we feel like it. Hopefully we'll stick with that and I'll start logging better miles soon. My goal is to break the 800 mile mark this week, which means doing 22. We'll see. Also, thanks for the congrats! :happy:

I like it, too, even though I haven't been doing too much of it; I messed up my knee somehow. Mystery injury.

I did 13 miles last week. We were on vacation and most of it was up and down the boardwalk. Fun times!

I'm getting so lazy because of this heat. I did 5.5 last week. I've been saying I want to break out of the 800s every week, but I haven't been doing the work. Maybe this week or the next.

im only counting my walking miles ( i also do spinning)...if my hip gets really sore and walking becomes unbearable, then can i start adding my biking miles?
