in Motivation and Support
Hello again everyone. I have been posting these challenges each month of 2014. We have tried for 30 miles, then 35, and since we all have such different schedules, methods of training, etc., let's just set our own goals this month. It's easy. Just check in periodically (I try to post shortly after I complete my mileage) with a date, distance, and total. I typically add also if my mileage was running, walking, etc. (elliptical, hiking, or even biking although those miles may add up quite fast.....). So good luck to you all! This challenge really has motivated me to get my mileage up!

    I almost hit 50 last month, but I had a 10k and a couple longer runs leading up to that so I am going to shoot for 40 miles this month. Most of my miles are running, with some walking.

    I'll try to run 50 miles/80km this month. So far, I've done about 21.5km and I'm heading out shortly!

    Anyone else on Garmin Connect+ and want to add me on there? (I'm lilacjames not snailrunner - someone else already beat me to it!)
