    I started using MFP on the 15th of January. I have walked 39.4 miles so far in January. I use walking as my exercise program as a cancer survivor. I walk a minimum of 3 miles everyday at lunch and I will be doing the Biggest Loser Run/Walk Half Marathon on the 26th of January. I use races like this as motivation to get out and walk.

    I am up to 49 miles as of yesterday and will hit 50 today. I have been using the Map My Walk app (free) and Pandora (free) to keep me motivated.

    Its wonderful to see so many people either completing or getting close to completion already.

    I'm going to see how far I can go

    Run keeper, an amazing app on my phone, tells me how far I have walked and my pace or speed. It keeps me focussed and have walked over 400 miles since installing it.

    Jan 8th - 2 mile run (3.32km).
    Jan 10th - 2 mile run (3.32km)
    Jan 14th - 2 mile and 2.5 mile (3.32km run and a 4km) run to add from last week.
    Jan 14th - 2.5 mile walk (4km)
    Jan 15th - 2 mile run (3.5km)
    Jan 18th - 2 mile walk (3.5km)
    Jan 20th - 2 mile run (3.32km)
    Jan 22nd - 2 mile run (3.5km)

    Total: 19 miles (31.78km)

    God I'm very slow at getting the milage up. There is no way I'll reach 50 miles by the end of the month. I'm upping my 3k+ runs to 5k from next week so that should add a bit more but I'll still be way off the target. Maybe I'll reach it in February!!
