I’m ready to get this year started with goals I can achieve. Who wants to join me in completing 1200 miles in a year? The rules on the miles must be completed with only the intentional exercising in mind. ( the walking the office and house don’t count)
You can record your miles on here weekly or monthly. Let’s get physical for 2018!

    Oooooh... my goal in 2017 was 1000 miles, and I did 1,323.7 so i am definitely up for beating last year's number.

    I am a massage therapy student, in 2 days I will have completed all the licensure requirements!
    I often wonder how many calories I burn giving a massage. It feels like doing a hot yoga workout.

    18.5 miles today... 12 on the bike, 3 on the elliptical, 3.5 walking
    62.5/1200

    I broke it all down, as I do with my compulsive behavior and in order to get 1200 miles in for the year I have to do 100 per month, 23 per week for months with 31 days, but I just went with that for every week in the year......... so each week even when I am ahead I will still aim to get the base of 23 miles in for all the weeks. this week I am way out of the ballpark thanks to the 2 bike rides I had and my obsession with this new challenge, but it all starts fresh tomorrow for week 2. I hope that along with eating less sugar I will see the changes I want.
    Thankful that you all are here!!
