    Hi everyone! I'm new to FitnessPal and thought this was a good challenge to start. I know I am starting it really late but I figure 2 miles a day will get me well beyond the 100 mile mark. If I can get the plans together I also plan to do a week long backpack trip with FitPacking to Crater Lake in Oregon. The plan is to do about 50 miles of hiking in that week. I will have to train a bit for it so this is a good challenge to motivate me. Thank you for the inspiration!

    Welcome minnieemmie, KeriA and ActiveTami! Good job everyone!

    I really need get moving on this! Seem to be doing lots of other activity...just not walking or running! Think I will make another ticker for myself for miles on wheels (bike & skating). But still need to get in my walk/run miles as I am supposed to be training for my 1st 5k. Time to focus!

    4mi run this morning - that was my longest ever and a little rough. 1.5mi dog walk this afternoon. That's all my legs are going to do today. :)

    Great job everyone!

    20 miles previous + 2 miles today = 22/100
    (today was harder for me to stay on the treadmill)

    Hey I finally got started today! I only did a mile and a half but it's better than yesterday. It felt great to get moving again! Thanks for the challenge to motivate me.

    toadlejones, did I read in another post that you were doing the Ventura Tiki Torch 5K? That looks like fun. Good luck in your first 5k!!!
  • Ok I am going to join in the challenge now. Clearly not having a challenge isn't working! I start tomorrow!

    Nope, not me! I'm in the Cleveland area and the zoo has a 5k Sept 25th that I am shooting for. Figure even if I am dying, looking at the animals would be fun! LOL! But.....my gym has a "Fun 5k" on tonight that I am almost tempted to try. I've never run outside before and haven't yet fully run a 5k distance (still walking some) but it seems like a really casual run that I could use to challenge myself. We'll see how gutsy I am feeling this evening...
