    So I just post here what I've done?

    If so, I did 2 miles today.

    Yep. That's exactly how it works. :)

    I hope to get on the board tomorrow :)
    My knees are a little sore from Sunday's run so I'm taking an easy week (way overdue!).

    Alexa,

    Thanks for doing this. I, like Maria, will be starting slow as I am in a 17k training with a trainer and he's forcing me to go slow and cross train, but, when this is done I will be playing catch up.

    1/2/12 - 3.2 Miles
    1/3/12 - 3.1 miles
    1/5/12 - 4 miles
    1/7/12 - 5 miles
    1/10/12 - 4.1 miles

    Jeanne (really_me) told me about this challenge. I'd really love to join if I can.

    My name is Alice, I'm 42 and live in Pasadena, CA. I actually work in Santa Monica, so it's funny to see that city listed as the first stop!

    I'm new into running as I'm doing my first half Marathon - the Tinkerbell Half Marathon at Disneyland - later this month. I gotta admit I've been bitten by the running bug. I've also made a 2012 goal to run in one race each month (5k, 10k, or HM). Hopefully, someday, I'll get the nerve to attempt a FULL marathon.

    Well, I hope I can join. Anybody feel free to add me as a friend. I'm active on MFP and love to give/get support.

    If I'm allowed in, here are my stats:

    1/9: 4 miles
    1/10: 5 miles

    (I'm doing some major miles this week and next and then I'll be tapering a bit the week of the race)

    Question: should I be checking in here daily? weekly?

    I keep track of my own miles, so it's no problem.
