ok found this halfway through the month i will set my cycling goal at 550km (I started Biking to work on the 7th after picking up a new bike the 6th. At this point i have done 132 km and shortly will head out for a 16km ride home. leaving just over 400 km to do before month end (320 of those KM will come from the work Commute that I do 4 out of 5 days) so that leaves me 80 extra km to find time for by the end of April (spread over 5 weekend days that's only 16 per day half what i ride on a work day)

Well done everyone - we are putting the work in!
I sued to do it a couple of years back at a different job that was a more realistic 6-7 km each way (still uphill on the way in) I got pretty quick, towards the fall that year the beater i was riding blew a toire and rim on a pothole, needed brakes and a new front tire as well, put it to the side and then didn't ride to work when i started the new job because it was16km each way. Bought a good new bike (Kona Rove AL) and got serious. Day 5 of the commute today and it get's a little easier every day, I definitely worry less about what is served for lunch at work now and can feel the muscles getting stronger. Tonight will be the longest ride yet at about 27 km but i will be stopping on the way to pick something up.0 -
Today was a fairly good day actually. I did manage 3.50 Walking Miles in between all my chores....
TOTAL THUS FAR APRIL 14TH.....49.25 Walking Miles....

Half way through April folks! Wow time goes fast....0 -
Oh my! When I discovered this challenge days before April I was soooo excited and then truly inspired as I read other people's posts... I had grand plans. Typical of me - I made excuses - and there really shouldn't be excuses for finding time to be in motion. Yesterday, I completed a hilly 10k with friends - 16.10 min average walking pace. The event was two short in finisher medals. Yup, I was second to last - no medal for me - it's not about the medal, but it was eye opening. No more excuses! Getting myself in gear/motion. I WILL be posting tomorrow with more miles.
6 miles done - 144 to go

Review ...
Distances include cycling + walking
March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min

April probably won't be as ambitious as March was because I have three major uni assignments due before the middle of the month and won't be as active. But if I could do what I did last April, that would be nice.
