Sorry to get this started late; but, here we go! The challenge is to walk or run 1 Mile (or more) per day for 31 days! And, speaking of being late, everyone gets a 1-mile credit for day 1 since I screwed up! But, I expect you to make it up to me at some point this month by doing two (or more)! If you are seeing this later in the month - no worries - just join in and get moving!

Ready - set - go!

    I'll accept your challenge, Mr. Pearcy. I'm getting started late, so I'll penalize myself 2 miles for each day I'm late. Today is the 4th... so I owe 1 mile for today, plus 3 x 2 = 6 miles in "late fees", bringing my total to 7. :)

    Fast walked 2.5 miles today. 4.5 miles to go!

    6.0 miles today in 57:17 ... personal record! I also believe that catches me up with my late fees. :)
