    I just posted the mile per like on my Facebook page. Two likes instantly, and one friend decided to share it with everyone he knew. Uh oh! I'd better get started. Thanks for the idea!

    What a great idea! It could also be a way to raise money for charity.

    Good luck with reaching the 81 miles, you have gotten off to a great start.

    oh wow! you brave brave soul! honestly, and it's a bit bad, sometimes I exercise harder because I want to make sure I have enough calories and macro numbers so I don't have to see any "red" for the day. my motivation and energy comes from my mind so if an exercise lasts for let's say 1 more minutes or less on a workout dvd, I just convince myself to keep going, and tell myself to not stop, it will be over soon, and then it is :)

    So I tried this. I posted:

    For every 'like' this status gets by 7pm tonight, I will do 1 set of crunches (a set is 30 seconds of crunches) with my calisthenics tonight.

    I'm at 15 likes so far. What have I done!! lol

    Going to repost with different exercises on each day I work out :P

    It really is a lot of fun! I just finished up mile #7 tonight :):) I think I've finally found my motivation!! I don't want to let my friends down. I've been announcing the mile. Who's mile it is dedicated to. Choosing a playlist for the times we spent together and writing a dedication to them. Everyone seems to be digging it. I know that I am. Thanks so much for the idea!!

    That was within 24 hours. I haven't technically cut it off. I am going to try to finish out the month with what ever the current count is. :)
