  • For those of us technically challenged I'm on ticket tracker but can't figure out how to build the tracker and then import it to me signature. Help. :embarassed:

    I cannot add another Ticker at this time as I already have two up so I will just keep a running log on here using this format. It's not pretty but works for me. I am also posting a view of my routes if anyone wants to take a look.

    Though I did want to do this challenge, I wasn't thinking at all when I jumped right in..........I will be on vacation for 2 weeks this month, so I highly doubt I'll be able to make 100 miles. Sorry.

    Do what you can do my dear. We are only accountable to ourselves. If you go 5 miles, that is more that most people. Join in.

    I think I may see your first problem :) Try going to tickerfactory.com, and then you will just enter your data, copy the source code provided, and copy this into your signature on MFP. Send me an email if you need more instruction.

    Thanks,

    6 yesterday and 3 this morning - heading to Northern Maine for a long weekend of camping. Planning to climb that mt I've only been looking up at for years! Have a goal to log 5 miles a day over the holiday weekend.

    Make it a great day all!

    Didn't get to run today, my boyfriends daughter is here for the weekend and we played outside and jumped on the trampoline. does that count? haha I'll probably have to go to work early for some me time on the treadmill.

    That's true I suppose. I could try to get 50 before the 2nd half of Sept. :)


    Guess I'm off to tickerfactory to log what I've done so far.

    I am super excited to have this as a motivator!

    At 33 miles for the month already. We climbed 2 mountains this weekend. The first was only 1,000 ft but it was a nice steep path up and we jogged down which was a lot of fun. The second was 3,200 feet and very tough. We were caught in a thunderstorm at the peak which was really exciting (and a little scary) but the climb down was slippery and dangerous. All 3 of us took at least one good digger. Felt very invigorated after these hikes. This could be addicting!

    Hoping to motivate myself & get some jogging in this week. Keep up the great work everyone!

    Ran in the rain yesterday (love that!) and walked 2 miles on lunch today. The miles are adding up... but I need to increase my pace if I'm going to reach 100 by month's end!

    Hope everyone is doing well and enjoyed the long weekend! Looking forward to running this week, the weather change is so awesome; went from 100 degrees last week to mid-70's this week. Here's hoping my running legs are as excited about it as I am. Best of luck getting in your miles!!!!!

    I don't know what's gotten into me to jump into something like that! LOL

    100 miles is far from what I'm used to...

    But I'm proud to say that I got 14 miles in so far. Yay!

    I'm sad I just saw this now! I will join, but I'm going to modify it to 75 miles for September! This is a great idea, thanks!

    Great job everyone! Keep up the running! I have 20 miles so far for September and looking to add 3 more this evening 9/7/11. Trying to be ambitious this first half of the month, my schedule is looking fuller later on and might find it more difficult to log the miles. If you're part of the challenge group and we aren't friends add me and we can encourage each other more!
