With this virtual race you can walk, use the treadmill or run outside. You can run your race at your pace wherever you like. I would love for everyone to challenge themselves to this. The date is Jan. 25th, that's a Sunday but you can do yours anytime that weekend. Than we will have 3 more in Feb, March and April. That way you can see how you improve as you drop more weight. This isn't about becoming a runner, just walking if you want. On the day of the race I will post a topic "race times" and you can post your time. It's not about being the fastest, it's about the commitment and the completion. Once you compete in all 4 I am sure we will all see a difference in our time. Who's in?

nice idea - I am in! I am doing a couch-to-10 km training plan at Endomondo right now, so that fits quite nicely (hopefully I will also stick to it

You can count me in. I am a regular runner but I can encourage others.0

I just started running again after an injury while training for a 1/2 marathon, so I would love to join! I have a lot of catching up to do

I'm in! Remind me some how as it gets closer. I did C25K months ago after my youngest was born. Right now the 5K distance is perfect for me - fun run without dull. I am in the Midwest and run outside all year long. Love it!0

I'm just starting out, but what the heck, I can walk it. It will be interesting to see improvements in the following months

Count me in! I always do at least one 4 mile run on the weekends, so I'll just do this instead.0

Remember you can do this challenge anyday day Friday, Saturday or Sunday. I will make a post for everyone to post their time and maybe I can get the lady that made our wonderful weight loss spreadsheet to make one for this to show how we improve each month!0
