    Also, still need major clarification on this challenge.
    Just joined and all I know are the daily challenges that I see on this forum.
    What is the name of the main challenge? And is there a forum for that? A link to the forum anyone?

    Also, I tend to work out a lot. I see ppl mentioning "extra" mileage.
    What is that? Will that get the team extra points?

    Tell me all I need to know PLEASE I'm all for a good competition!

    The monthly challenge is the August challenge. There is 26 teams!!!! We each have our own tread. The big cheese head is Gary. He is the one doing all the daily challenges. Everyday we have points for logging our calories and drinking at least 64oz of water.

    The 100 miles challenge is an additional challenge issued this week. It means that in addition of your everyday workout, as a team we try to walk, run, rollerblade or limp 100 miles more!!! For additional points.

    :)

    :) great!
    Thanks for clarifying, so for mon 8/8 I give u 8 extra miles of running.

    I have a question. I stepped on a toothpick a week and a half ago and it got lodged about a quarter of the way in my foot. It was in the ball of my foot close to the bone on the inside of my foot under my big toe if that makes sense. It was extremely painful and I've just been dealing with it but power walking 5 miles in two days have really turned it purple and bruised and now it hurts really bad. So I'm wondering if I can bike ride my miles this week instead of walking? I have no problem walking normally but I'm afraid my foot is going to get worse and I won't be able to walk on it at all! Thank you for considering my other option!
