    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.

    Hey, glad to see some others sticking with it!
    2mi run and 1mi walk this morning. 1mi walk w/ dog tonight. Only 3.5 miles left, so I should be done on Thursday, not that it changes anything. Still plenty of work to go!

    I just completed the dreaded Week 5 Day 3 of C25K which involves a 20 minute run. As usual I continued around the lake after making my total to 36 miles. Had a family crisis this week. But I wll be plugging away and continue posting too simcat. Great job Pam.

    Woo Hoo! I made it! I'm a bit surprised that my running and walking are pretty even and am happy with that. Just seeing what real life looks like on paper.
    KeriA - I remember that week of C25k from last year. I was seriously afraid of that day! Isn't it amazing what the mind and body can do?!
    Good luck to everyone continuing on!

    Hi everyone. SimKat it is very cool you are doing this running and walking and you are on track with both! Just Bethy you are almost done! I am still behind and will take to September 1 to complete this challenge. I considered converting my Zumba class to miles walked and decided against it. I want this to be walking or running or even biking but Zumba and Aquafit are really different types of exercise. However it was nice to know that I would be about where I need to be by now if I did add it in. So this morning I did Week 6 Day 1 of C25k for another 3 miles since I continued around the lake. I am hoping to get more walking in this weekend while we are on our family camping trip. We usually do some hiking. So congrats to those who are finishing up and I am trudging along. Happy August all.
