Weekly Goal

So for the first part of August, starting this week really, my goal is 10 miles. I've been slogging my way through C25K, stuck on weeks 5 and 6 because of a mostly mental block that won't let me get past the long runs. I plan to do it this week though, and hopefully move on to every run being a 25-minute or longer. I run 3-4 times per week, with 2.5-3 miles each run; at this pace I should be able to average a mile a day pretty easily. I'll check back in later this week to post how I'm *actually* doing! Good luck to all as you set goals to help create and maintain a healthy lifestyle!

Hi, I'm new to the site, and am very motivated. I participate in the 3-Day for the Cure, which is walking 60 miles in 3 days. I spend about 6 months training each year. I love the challenge, and appreciate the opportunity to join you. I need to get some weight off to be within the 'healty' range and gain some points in a fitness challenge at work. I walk a lot so I'm going to try and average 2 miles a day for the month.0

I will walk a mile each day. I was exercising every day and now I've slacked off. Thanks will help get me going again!

I am going to walk 1 mile everyday for August. I hardly have time to be active, but this I can squeeze into my day! I think this will be fun 0

I just restarted C25K yesterday. There is a road right across from my driveway that is exactly 1 mile long. Between run days, I will be walking that road also, so minimum of 2 miles a day.
I commit to 2 miles a day and will try to get a little extra in so I have a total of 15 miles a week.
Good luck everyone and KEEP MOVING!!!0 -
These look like some great goals, I am way excited to see how many are going above and beyond, to 2 miles a day - that is amazing! I admit I didn't get a run in this morning, due to being laid low with a migraine last night, but I'll get in the strength training I missed yesterday, and put in some time on the elliptical trainer. If it fits around the kids' swimming lessons and the meeting I have with the local Young Women's group from church!! I think it's great to see how many people are willing to work in a 1 mile walk every day, even though you are very busy; baby steps are definitely the way to achieve your goals. Remember to check in at least once a week to update your goals and let us know how you are doing, and let's keep each other motivated!0

3 miles a day for days 1 and 2 for a 6 mile total so far. The first 3 miles were on the streets. The second three were a combination of walking, walking upstairs, and running. Witha 2 mile a day goal, I have 56 more to go 0

Yes it's August 4 but I can catch up by doing a little extra each day. My goal is 1.4 km up to the railway station and back. Don't know what that is in miles. Will do a conversion one day.0

My 2 mile a day balance was 56 miles to go. I did 11 miles on 8/3 and 6 miles 8/4 to leave 39. I plan on 6 more in the morning :happy:0

8/6 update. I did 6 miles on 8/5 and 3 on 8/6. Now just 30 more to go for the month. Just start moving and keep moving 0

Going great so far, I made my goal last week, ran 9 miles. This week will be tough, I'm off for a vacation with the hubby tomorrow and there isn't a workout facility at the hotel; we're taking the 2 older kids to the waterpark before we leave though, and I'll get a run in the morning too. Maybe I'll squeeze a run in Saturday night after we get home, that will get me to my 9 for the week. Random neighborhood bike rides with the kids, too, will probably put me 10+ for the week, but I'm not actually tracking those since it's 10 minutes here and there at a 5-year old's training wheel pace. :happy:0

I'm at an average 1.5 miles per day for all of Aug. Woot! Woot! And that mile is so much easier to cover than at the beginning of Aug. Wonderful stuff there.
Anyone still walking? I'd love to hear how everyone's doing!!0 -
I've still been walking. I just totaled up from 8/21 to today for 43.5 miles, bring my monthly total to 141. That's an average of 4.7 miles a day :bigsmile: My training plan kicks up more next month. Just one foot in front of the other...0
