    Wow 90 miles huh? I'm in. Part of mine will be done pushing my son in the stroller outside so what can I use to track my distance?

    I use endomondo as my GPS tracker, it is a free app in the android market, I'm pretty sure there's an iPhone app as well

    I do have an android phone however I recently canceled the Internet to save $ every month. I read on google that every 2000 steps is one mile (approx) so maybe I will have to get a pedometer, just don't know how accurate it will be. Thank you

    I searched several sites and found that if you measure 50 feet and walk that normally while counting your steps you can figure out how many steps you take in a mile. So I averaged 23 steps in 50 feet. 50/23=2.1 steps. So in one mile I walk 5280/2.1=2514.3 steps. That is at a normal pace. Give it a try to get a better reading of your actual steps.

    you can use mapmyrun.com to map where you walk and it will give you your mileage. I use it both to figure out what my routes are going to be (if I am looking to hit a specific mileage) and for how far I've actually gone (in the event I just hit the road and come home when I'm tired).

    I'm in! This will be my 1st challenge as well. Ninety miles in 31 days? I can do that, especially since I'm training for a 5K.
    Where do we log these miles?


    Yes log here!

    Count me in! I will be counting my steps at work as well. Since I am moving majority of the day at work. I have a pocket pedometer that is pretty accurate. Also will be logging on the treadmill... Hopefully will push me some more!

    Just posting for later.

    Count me in too! Although, I've hurt my knee pretty bad, so my first few days might not show much promise :/ But I'll definitely pick up pace next week!

    I am in and turning 50 this year -- in need of some serious motivation. I will read through to see what the challenge is. Can I assume it is to complete 90 miles of walking, running, etc. but not biking?
