    I am going to join too! I am going for just 30 miles! Start out slow at a mile a day! I think that is very do-able! I will try to figure out ticker!

    @skippygirlsmom @fabnine @shanaber Thanks, ladies! I am very excited and cannot wait to meet my little runner girl. Let's see if I can manage posting a tiny picture of hers :)

    Oh cool! Thanks

    I love mapmyrun. I tend to go out with a general idea of where I'm going in mind, then I think "oh let me go down that road" or I love that hill let me do it again (okay that's not true I never say that!). I have a GPS watch that will track my distance, but when I'm running in my neighborhood I tend to wear just my stop watch.

    @ddmom0811 - great job for both of you on the 5K.

    I've never done one of these challenges before but I think I'm going to try for 100 miles in January. I think it'll be just the right amount of push.

    Jan 1 - 5K on the beach.
    My daughter was 1st her in age group! She figures all others in her age group were still hung over. ;) I came in 4th in my age group. It was misting but perfect for running. I loved running on the packed sand, never done that before.
    Congratulations to you and your daughter!! That beach run sounds wonderful! I am looking forward to getting back to the dog beach here to run with my pup there now that the holidays are over.

    I'm shooting for 35 again this month. January is COLD and I run outdoors, I'm sure there will be a few days I just can't make it outside.
    Aww...c'mon... you are just in Buffalo. It's not like you get snow or anything like that up there. :)

    I KNOW...just a dusting now and again

    I missed my December goal (89 miles out of 100). I am determined to get there for Jan!

    I started the new year off with a crazy 10-mi trail run complete with traversing caves and jumping across creeks. Only 90 more miles to go!
