    take care and get well...there will be more challenges each month to come...do not push yourself too hard...get better first and then move your *kitten*...

    Looks like I'm going to have trouble making my goal this month. I knew I was going to be out a few days with a stent procedure, so I packed a lot into the first week or so of the month, but that stent procedure turned into open-heart surgery a couple of weeks ago, so about the only workout that I'm getting right now as I go through about 6-8 weeks of recovery walking outside around the cul-de-sac a few times a day and climbing a flight of stairs to get a shower.

    I had 44.73 miles packed into the first week of the month, but I'm fairly limited right now in what my body can tolerate; especially with the leg incisions. I guess I'll try to see what the distance around the cul-de-sac happens to be, but I seriously doubt I'm going to be able to walk 55 miles in the next week to reach my 100 mile goal.

    4 mile hike with the dogs in the beautiful woods behind our house. Today was my day for the male to kill a rodent and not want to relinquish his trophy :laugh: Yesterday he took off after a deer and I wasn't sure he was coming back.

    All of you guys are doing great!! :flowerforyou:

    For my part, I won't be able to reach my goal this month. I haven't run in the last week, and probably won't before next week. One of our friends had his basement flooded, so almost every day, we dig around the house (drains are packed with mud) and pump water.... We should be done this weekend... hopefully. But helping a friend in need is priceless, so I'll just concentrate on that, and I'll see all of you guys in April.

    Keep moving gang!!!

    6 miles running today.

    I'm not going to make my goal this month again, but I'll see how much I can finish this week. I've been going to interviews the last 2 weeks, so not much time (or energy) to go running and after 1 1/2 years of applying for jobs, I FINALLY got a job offer :happy:
    Keep up the great work everyone!!!

    77 people have moved over 4,500 miles for March, 15 have made their goals, another 10 or so are almost there, 14 have moved over 100 miles ... A great month overall and it's still not over yet. :happy:

    Ran/walked 5 miles this evening. The challenge gets easier after the first 100 miles :smokin:

    @ lyla: Glad you got a job offer. Going to interviews sucks, not getting hired sucks double, I admire your persistence. I'd have gone ballistic after a few months
    @ speedy: Helping a friend in need, you're a friend indeed. Besides April is just round the corner.
    @ wightrose: So it's the isle of Wight not the isle of W-e-ight after all :laugh: :laugh:
    @ gehlerc: Every weekend I watch reruns of Friends, the old sitcom. 2 of the 4 main characters are Gehlers :noway: . Btw, is your dog's name Ross?

    16 more miles today! I also swam laps today but have no idea how that would count! All I know is that swimming laps is hard work!!

    I'm sooo surprised and proud of myself!!:bigsmile:
    I never thought I would keep up with the challenge. I'm hoping to get some more miles in this week :wink:

    And thanks again, Dinos, for all your hard work on our spreadsheet!

    Wow I could have used a "friend" like you last summer when I pumped water from my basement May until August! We had 100 inches of snow Nov. till April and after that it was ENDLESS rain!! I could not go anywhere due to the pumping and bucketing!!! This year we have a very little snow and are praying for rain!!! WIERD!!! Don't worry about your goal, being a friend right now is probably the best anyway!
