    I just posted the December Challenge: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10027418/december-running-challenge?new=1

    Post your goals in the above link now, but wait till Monday December 1st to start logging.

    Congratulations on everyone that met their goals or about to. So excited that these challenges have been a huge influence on so many people. It has been one year now that I have managed these challenges and I am so thankful for everyone that participates in them. My first running challenge that I posted was in December 2013. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10027418/december-running-challenge?new=1

    Thanks everyone!

    Ran a little more than a mile today to get to my goal. Didn't want to run all that far because I'm flying tonight and I want to be able to actually stand up when my flight lands.

    11/3 - 3 miles
    11/4 - 3.4 miles
    11/7 - 3.75 miles
    11/11 - 3 miles (went on vacation, did lots of walking, but only ran once)
    11/17 - 3.2 miles. 32 and snowy - what a welcome home from 80 deg orlando!
    11/20 - 3 miles (I'm counting the elliptical because of the 7+ feet of snow)
    11/22 - 3 miles (still buried under 7 feet of snow, gym still closed)
    11/24 - 4.2 miles - Finally back outside! I felt like I could have run forever.
    11/27 - 5 miles - Turkey Trot! Ran the whole thing with no breaks in 54 mins :) There were 12,000 people there, probably could have done better if I didn't have to zig zag. Was a great time!
    11/29 - 3.5 miles

    Whoo hoo! Met my goal!!!

    Well, yet again, I did not make my goal. I was doing other non-running exercise (walking and resistance training), but I really want to try to get out and run more, because I love running, except for when I don't.


    November 2, 3.1 miles (5K Race), 32 min (my worst 5K race time, stupid asthma)
    November 5, 5.25 miles
    November 8, 11 miles
    November 12, 3 miles
    November 23, 13.1 miles Philadelphia Half marathon (2:27:04)
    November 29, 6.5 miles

    Total: 41.95 miles

    @fabnine thanks working as a RN is hard but rewarding and 12 hour shifts are killer. But something I've found is that you have to take the time to do things for your health. In fact it's all about making the time for it. :smile: and if I help motivate people to exercise then it's an added bonus.
