"Struggling and suffering are the essence of a life worth living. If you're not pushing yourself beyond the comfort zone, if you're not demanding more from yourself -- expanding and learning as you go - you're choosing a numb existence. You're denying yourself an extraordinary trip."
- Dean Karnazes

"No matter how far you walk, how hard you work, or how bad it hurts, you'll always get to where you need to be."
- Unknown Author

15 miles starting Sunday and ending Saturday... Yep that easy and you know you can do it! Just log your daily miles, the total miles for the week and encourage your fellow challengers to make their goals, yep it's that easy.

"Run when you can. Walk when you must. Crawl if you have to. Just never give up." Dean Karnazes, the Ultramarathon Man

For the folks returning you know that the 15 miles is not the main goal. The main goal is just to get up and get moving, if you don't meet it that's fine and you surpass it, well that just freaking rocks.

For new comers the preferred method of posting miles would be:

Sunday-miles-what you did Monday-miles-what you did Tuesday-miles-what you did So on and so forth, posted daily or when the miles occur...

Total- Running total for the week thus far

As always this is not set in stone, if you post every other day or whatever fits into your schedule, but please try to stay close to the above format.

For those folks that don't do miles:

for conversion to be made easy (Thanks Nonafit)

Now let's get moving folks :)

"You can't hit a home run unless you step up to the plate. You can't catch a fish unless you put your line in the water. You can't reach your goals if you don't try."- Kathy Seligman

    Sunday: 3.5 miles running (accompanied by my 17 year old daughter on her BIKE - I think she is more out of breath than me!)

    Not sure if I will be able to run outside the next 2 days because of Sandy, so wanted to get in a run today to help with the mileage - trying to consistently get 20 miles or more per week.

    That's awesome! Quick question, though. . . has your FitBit been syncing with MFP lately? Mine has not :(

    I know the shorter days are not going to make it easy at all to get out doors. I wouldn't be so worried about if I lived on streets with sidewalks, curbs and/or street lights...
