Anyone want interested in checking in here and logging your miles that you walk, ran for the month of August? I was thinking it would be neat to see how far we all could go as a group.

Post here if you want to participate and we'll start tracking August 1st.

    This is something I would be interested in. In High School we had a walking across America challenge and logged how far we walked. I thought it was pretty fun.

    I would love to but can't for August BUT wanted to tell everyone to go to tickerfactory.com and you can create tickers just for this challenge! Also, anyone using a nike + can join the MFP August Challenge on the nike site for a little added inspiration!

    Good luck everyone, hope to join you in September!!

    tickerfactory.com.................go!!!

    LOL good timing or what??

    I just made myself a shiny new ticker - I want to do 1000 miles - gonna take me all bloody year :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    However, on that ticker I will only be recording my runs, your group is recording walk and runs so I would like to be in on that too.

    ps I wish there was a way to bookmark certain posts, so that this one I could keep track of. Even if we could send ourselves a message with the link to this thread in it, that would be fine. Threads get lost so quickly.

    I am in too! If any of you are interested, on Facebook there is a site called RUNLOGGER and you can keep track of your running/walking everday there but it would be fun and encouraging to keep track here too! Great idea!

    At the top of the screen you'll see this:

    The "My Topics" section bookmarks the threads you reply in so they're easy to find.

    Great response! How exciting!!!!
    We start tracking on Monday.

    Here is my suggestion:
    Group total so far: XXX miles + my miles XXX = XXXXX miles so far

    So evertime you log in to add your total copy and paste the last one and add in yours.

    What 'cha think? Opinions?

    And how about a goal as a group for the month?
    Just thinking outloud but it would be cool if our little group could do, say, 2000 miles in the month of August?
    There's 20+ of us so far.
    I know personally I am going to shoot for 200 miles.

    That sounds like a good total since some are planning for a marathon and some not quiet so ambitious. Would we also include miliage from an eliptical or just run/walking?

    I would say yes to including the ellipitcal miles.

    i think it should be like

    TODAY I RAN/WALKED XXXX + MY TOTAL THIS MONTH SO FAR = MY TOTAL

    MY TOTAL + GROUP TOTAL = XXXX

    so that we can have a total for ourselves as well.. not just the group's
