I was thinking of doing a walking/jogging/running challenge for July. A goal to go a certain distance for the month. Anyone interested in joining me? Any goal in mind?

Message me/friend me/ post here if you are interested.

    Well there was two different versions I had in mind. Either:

    1) A bunch of higher goals like Lvl 1 bing 50 miles lvl 2 being 75 miles and so forth

    or

    2) For those people who are competitive, just a who can walk the most miles in July contest.

    I. personally, want to walk 100 miles in July. That would be roughly walking 4 times per week and 6 miles per walk.

    i typically do either the stationary bike or elliptical for cardio. could i count the elliptical miles? (not the bike of course). don't know if i could do 100 miles. i've never done a challenge like this so i have no idea what i could do what about including walking at work or just specific exercise miles?

    100 miles in July sounds great. It'll really make me push myself (because I'm lazy) but I need that!

    I have a hard time believing that I can reach 100 miles, especially because I have to walk early in the morning to avoid the GA heat! BUT, I'm still shooting for 100 and hopefully get close! Go for 100, and see how far you get! :wink:

    roughly how many steps a day is that? am i right that it works out under 4 miles a day?
  • macenro

    3.2258 miles per day

    Lets say every step is a foot long...then that would mean roughly 17,032 steps per day.

    I'm in! I hit 100 miles in June, including walking, jogging, cycling etc it was pretty good fun I was thinking of pushing it to 125 this month.. Wanna try?

    I'm going to see how many mile I can run/walk that is for sure. I just picked 100 because it was round and a big number of miles. Every other day I'm doing C25K so there is 5 miles at least 20 miles a week.

    Tomorrow is the first day. Everyone ready?

    Once a week is probably fine, but you can check in once an hour for all I care. I'm going to try and start strong with 7-8 miles tomorrow.
