November 2013 Move Your @ss Challenge

@ Dave - I did notice you updating the spread sheet but I didn't see you log miles. Are you doing OK?

Thanks for checking on me. I'm okay...surprisingly, I wasn't even all that sore the next day or two. I ran again on the treadmill at the gym last night and was fine.

I've just been a little quiet because ....well... I found out yesterday afternoon that my garage had been broken into overnight and a bunch of stuff had been stolen....my bicycle along with a bunch of other big stuff. Just really, really bummed. And highly pissed.

I appreciate the interaction you and several others are doing. It makes the challenge so much better and more supportive.

Take care and keep on movin' it!

There are few things lower than a damn thief who has probably never worked a damn day in their life! Hope you catch the *kitten*!

Off to a slow start, had a birthday party for my 11 year old, and we stayed home and vegged after.

11/1 - 1.40 mi walking
11/2 - 1.74 mi
11/3 - 1.37 mi

In a little late, but my goal for November is 15 miles. Energy is still not quite back due to the pregnancy and with cold weather I struggle getting outside. I get cold very easily. So lowering the goal with hopes that I can actually make it this time. I have yet to accomplish my goal.

It is wonderful to see so many new people joining this challenge. Anyone can join at any time. And yes it is really nice and supportive. If you do sign up, though, I'd like to ask you to TRY to make your goal because we keep statistics and people who sign up and then never move are kind of drag on the numbers.

Wonstepatatime (and any other newbies) - if you go back to the first post on part 1 of the thread it will explain how it works (there's a link to part 1 of the thread on the first page of this part). If you still have questions after reading that, then ask away.

Dave, that is really terrible about the theft. I am so sorry but I'm especially sorry it's bumming you out. I hope when you remember how many people you are helping with this challenge and all the good you are doing that it will help restore your mood. At the end of the day, stuff is just stuff but good deeds are forever.

As for me, I added a 3 mile run to my total, making up for the training I was supposed to do yesterday.

4.3 miles for 11/4 for a total of 21.25 so far this month....

I will walk 60 miles.

Running from a rain storm my entire ride, managed not to get wet. Cold but good. And Dave (DarkRider) if someone stole my bike I would hunt them down like a rabid dog and beat their brains out. My son says, you may be a mom, but you are one tough mother!

11/01 - 9.0 miles biking
11/02 - 6.0 miles biking
11/03 - 11.0 miles biking
11/04 - 10.5 miles biking

Total: 36.5 miles

I am in for 95 this month due to starting a little late. That way I can surely make my goal. I know that the holiday will be a bit of a stumbling block for me as I will have family and friends here. I can't wait! I love love this time of year.

11/1 - 1.8 miles walking
11/2 - 1.6 miles walking
11/3 - .5 miles walking
11/4 - 4.1 miles walking

Dave

so very sorry for your recent thief ...this happen to me about 2 years ago... I does make you feel very violated ...

Thank you so much for all the good you are doing here....

I can not even beginning to express just how thankful I am to have found this wonderful and very supportive challenge.

Hang in there...:happy:

I'm new to the group but not to MFP. I've been looking for more ways to motivate myself so I think a challenge is right up my alley. Good luck to everyone on meeting their goals! I hope my ticker works, got an error message when i tried to download it.

So sorry to hear about this Dave! If infuriates me that people think they have the right to take what isn't theirs! My husband and children have experienced being robbed, stolen from and broken into. GRRR!!

Everyday I come hear reading through trying to catch up, not an easy task, and I think wow, this guy keeps track of all of this for us! I agree with the others, You rock! Thanks for all you do!

20 more miles

Wow...it's already Nov 4 and we are on part 2!
