    I am in for 150 miles or more, in addition with 50,000' of accumulated elevation gain ( 5000 flights of stairs).
    Rung up 5.7 miles with 1664' today.

    Those are awesome goals! 150 Miles in a month is amazing, I would love to get there one day.. :)

    I am back to being serious about getting fit and losing weight. I was lazy the last two months. I will accept this challenge and shoot for 30 miles in the month of August. What a great idea!

    I did the same thing. :( I did so good Jan - April and then... nada. I did about 45 miles in March and 65 in April then sat around for the past few. I did 3 miles today and it. was. ROUGH.

    I just saw this and I really needed a "goal" so I am in for 40 miles for this month. My treadmill will get some use again :) I have been stuck at this number for about a month so hopefully this will help get over this stall.

    I'm in. I ran 2.57 miles today, however, this is only the 3d time that I've been out to run in the last 6 months. I'm trying to get back into running as well ~ it does amazing & wonderful things to my body when I run! I had a baby in January so I have about 40 lbs. to lose! I am going to challenge myself to do 25 miles this month. If I succeed then I'll go up for next month. Good Luck everyone.
