    My goal is running a minimum of 5 miles, three times a week. I'm participating in a 5 mile race on May 1st and want to be able to do it without stopping to walk.

    Today I did 5.29 miles, but paused the treadmill twice briefly to take a sip of water, mop some of the sweat off my face, and fit a rebellious hair barrette that kept slipping.

    I just found this challenge tonight. I would love to give this a go, it should be a good motivator. I am going to try for 50 miles. Will start tomorrow though since it is already pretty late on the April 1st.

    I think I might just need to join this challenge.... I have the WORST time getting my butt to the gym, and I think this could be just the motivation I need to fix that! To start with, I'm going to say 50 miles and possibly adjust from there once I see how I do this month.

    I think 40 is going to be a little low for me. I was at work last night, i work in a medical clinic so am constantly running around, and I walked two miles .

    You can always raise it to something more challenging. That's what we're here for :happy:
    I ran 5.3K on a trail today. It's harder than running on a track but more fun, I really enjoyed it. :bigsmile:
    If you want to reach your goal, better start moving now. Believe you me.

    Just jogged 5k around the park by my house. Got pretty much every terrain except sand! Some grass, some (muddy) dirt road with tree roots, some gravel, some pavement.

    You may have noticed I changed my profile pic to me as a little kid. Remember what it was like to grab a group of kids in the neighborhood and play baseball in the field? Tag? Hide and go seek? Jump rope? Relay races? Riding bikes? All awesome exercise without us even knowing it. What about the days off no bills, work, stress? Let's embrace our childhood and change our pics (for atleast one week).

    Managed 3 miles of yard work today. Oh what fun! cleaned all flower beds and picked up sticks from the yard and raked gravel out of yard back into drive after a long winter of snow.
    Maybe tomorrow we will get the rest of the Christmas lights down after all it is past April Fool's Day. :laugh:

    @TeamLeela, my new profile pic is for you! :smile: (Hey, my mom did my hair back then. And made all my clothes.)

    8 miles on the treadmill this morning.

    And, by the way, when you watch season after season of "House" back-to-back, you realize that a) House almost always has his breakthrough idea about a case when he's in a totally unrelated conversation, and b) they recycle guest stars as patients. e.g., The woman who was a deadbeat drug addict that Foreman killed with a mistake in season 2 or 3 turned up in season 5 as a brilliant cancer researcher who left her research to find happiness. >Sigh< But, it keeps me occupied on the treadmill.

    Happy *kitten*-moving everyone!
