Who wants to do a challenge for August? I am pledging to walk a minimum of 100 miles for the month. Who else is in? You can walk, run, jog, cycle, or use an eliptical (Just as long as you are putting miles under your feet) and get as many miles in as you can :)

Congrats to everyone who made their goals for the July 100 miles challenge! There were some seriously impressive numbers for some of the participants!!

    100 miles walked is my goal for August. In July I did the beginner's challenge for 50 and smashed it. So yeah, gonna try for 100 this month. Started off kind of crappy because I got rained out on today, so only did 1.5 mi.

    You can enter day, week or at the end of the month (whatever is easier for you)

    Ok, I'm in. I'm planning to run a 7.7 mile race in early September, so this 100 mile goal for August is perfect! I log that with Runtastic, will copy the total from the Runtastic log here periodically . From 8/1 through today 8/4:

    Overall statistics 8.58 mi

    Have fun, looking forward!

    I like to get them from Tickerfactory.com or lilyslim.com (lilyslim does not let you exceed your goal though);
