    This is how I have been logging my miles.....

    http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=208579463279936013990.0004b3a0073e565676326&msa=0

    A friend of mine is a dedicated runner and she does the same thing (gave me the idea) but she does it on a real map. Each year she changes colors....

    Thats pretty interesting. Do you just map a route from the miles that you did on your stationary? I never thought of that. I have a fan bike as well but it's very...manual...I guess I could say. Takes more work than at a gym but I guess that's a good thing haha

    Yes, I decide which way to go and keep logging it....same with my friend who does it on the map.

    For me it helps to visualize just how many miles I have completed....

    I read this yesterday and hesitated but then kept thinking about it. I am in!!! I will also be putting in some miles by cycling. I just started working out two days ago so why not start with a challenge

    I also meant to ask. What about what you get on your pedometer each day. Does that count.

    it sure does. I don't know how many steps equals a mile but if you do go for it!

    I'd like to join! I love keeping track of my mileage, but I'm not always diligent. This will give me some accountability.

    Happy, healthy New Year!

    I'm down - but it would be mountain bike miles... :) in 2011 I just broke 700 (only counting from March to September) and was a little lazy so 2012 is a nice fat goal for me! Count me in!!

    I am not really interested in running a group, just because I know I cannot commit to that, but I would love to make some friends who are interested in taking on this challenge. I want to walk 2,012 miles in 2012. It comes out to about 5 and a half miles a day. I am open to communicating any way you would like, through emails/texts/IMs I just would like someone who I can message when I am not feeling like getting off my butt to do my miles for the day...and who knows maybe you will make a great friend out of it :)

    Ok I am in I like run / walk so to do this will be no problem for me . Thank you for allowing me to participate . I wish everyone the best .

    I would love to be a part of this. Could you start a group and send out invites? I have 4 kids as well but my "baby" is about to turn13 so I know you are in for a fun journey! Thanks for taking this on.
