    Excellent job Angela!!! :drinker:

    I've been in the shin splint camp as well. Feeling a little better after 3 days of rest so I think I will join Just_Bethy and get walking today.

    And Terriann, I'm behind as well so we can catch up together. I really need to get moving as I have a 3 week holiday in there as well. Oops.

    Just a 1mi walk w/ my dog last night. Was supposed to do my 4mi run this AM, but it's like a terrarium outside! May jump on the treadmill later in order to keep going, but I find it really hard to not get bored on there after a spring/summer of running outside.

    Great job, Angela! Toadie, hope you feel better! Good job, everyone!

    . Thanks so much, ladies, for all the congrats!!. Feels good to have completed my first challenge ever!!!. It was awesome & I feel really strong & proud...especially b/c we only started running maybe 5 or 6 weeks ago & are now doing 5k's every week (plus did my longest run EVER in my life last Sat--a 10k!!)

    . I'm not sure what to do to celebrate it...my hubby & I did eat out yesterday for the first time since April, when we started this journey...& did VERY well, might I add!!!. We had Thai food & shared really small portions...a victory in itself!! We start a new training program tomorrow...to get us ready for an official 10k coming up in a couple of months...

    Just_bethy, that's a fabulous idea though, to celebrate & I like the bracelet thought!!

    I hope you all feel better from your injuries...my hip has been bothering me the past couple of weeks since I strained it on one of my fast walks...so I understand the pain!! . Be good to yourselves & take it easy, rest up as much as needed & just do what you can when you can!!. I'm proud of you all!!! You'll get there by Sept...good going, girls!!!!

    Great job completing the challenge! Glad the Shin splints are better too. You all are doing great. I walked to and did another 2 of C25K. So another 4 miles over all. I am hoping to catch up a bit when we go camping next month and do a bunch of hiking.

    3/4 of the way there!! Its too bloody hot to walk much now..Wish I had room for the treadmill inside...Think the kids would like to sleep out on the patio for the rest of summer so I can use their bedroom??? If I call it "Camping" I could get away with it right???
    You guys are doing FAB!!!!

    3mi run this AM and 1.5mi walk tonight. Getting close...
    Just_Bethy - I think your kids would love it. I remember my sister and I getting sent out onto the patio as punishment because we wouldn't quit talking the night before school started. Totally backfired.
    Keep on keepin' on!

    I feel like I've fallen off the earth in this topic. Sowwie. I did mange to walk about 7 miles while on vacation last week. Gatlinburg is a city best viewed by walking instead of waiting in line with all the traffic jams! Plus we went on a ghost tour that was half a mile.

    Hello everyone :)

    I just passed the 50% point... 50 miles already?? WHO KNEW?! When I signed up for this... My only thought was "Um.. 100? Miles? For real? That's a LOT! Let's try!" And here we are... Just over a month to go... We can ALL do this!

    Hope everyone has a great week! You all look fabulous!

    Well didn't get much walking in this weekend just some swimming. Today I did my C25k so I have added another 3 miles on and will check back on Thursday when I plan to do it again. Need to get some serious mileage in though.
