    Good job, sddar. Keep it up!
    Gruff, today you definitely would have dragged me, but I don't think I would have kicked and screamed. Maybe just asked for a nice padded sled... This darn illness has kept me down another day. Huff... I will get better tomorrow. I will get better tomorrow. I will get better...

    SO SORRY you're not feeling well jesiann! I know how you feel! Dont know IF any of you have read back but I use too do at least 100 miles a month. I have even done 128 miles. Getting the flu and then injuring my shoulder has really set me back BUT MY SPIRIT IS NOT BROKEN and Gruff you will NOT have too drag me once I am ME again.... :) UNLESS you expect me too keep up with your pace...lol...That would be rough on a 62 year old woman! lol

    Sunday 1.25 Miles best I could do. Today pouring rain, not the best day with my neck and shoulder. It became a day of rest other than my Husband helping me vacumn and do a load of laundry. That was bad enough...ughhhhhhhhhh

    TOTAL THUS FAR DECEMBER 29TH...........48.50 WALKING MILES.....
    ...............................................................16.9 EXERCISE BIKE MILES...

    No miles today. Took a Dance2Fit class (think Zumba with more strength training) for an hour. My first class in 3 years. I'm pooped.

    Still at 8.5

    Jeannie, in spite of having a rough month, you gave it your best. I say 'Good job!' And Gruff, well you know you just blow my mind. I think we all agree that you've done phenomenal! Sddar, looking forward to logging some miles with you in the new year.

    I did make goal but I could've done better. New year, here we come! (Uh, Jeannie, don't forget to start the thread...) what have you done without me all this time?!? <3

    What would I have done without you jesiann? I would have walked alone, talked too myself etc..lol AND it was sooooooooooooooooooo NICE too see people join us here. I did browse the fitness area. There is actually a thread for the same thing I've done here. However there are a LOT of people. Now IF that is your cup of tea then I will say go for it. I rather like having fewer too many. I guess because it can be more personal and we can 'speak' too one another sort of like a group...soooooooooooo I'm OFF TOO MAKE A NEW 2015 THREAD...COME AND JOIN ME? <3
