OK, our first challenge...pretty easy one, I think!! Log in 13 miles in the month of September!! We can WALK, RUN, JOG, or do the ELLIPTICAL.

Sept 1st - 2 miles for me!! 11 more to go!!

    Alright! I'm on it! It's supposed to rain all week here so I might have to do mine indoors! I really need to change it up for my body because I am stuck!

    OMG, you've won the challenge...hahahaha! WTG, though you seem to really love it! I hated my treadmill at home, I think I needed the push of leaving my home and going somewhere like the gym or outside!!

    I think i'm hitting a plateau too. keep going up by a pound and then down the next day then back up...I'm hoping by thursday i'll see 132/131.

    I definitely prefer the outdoors but with two young kids and a traveling husband i had to get something for the house to ensure i had NO excuse not to exercise :smile:

    Ugh I suck! I've done no miles, but I have at least stuck with my Zumba.

    I need to try to make some time to at least do SOME before Sept is up!

    Hello all, I am new to your group joined last week. I am in another challenge group this month and we are doing Leslie Sansone walk at home dvds, so this month I have already done 17 miles as of yesterday :)

    we may have made it to easy for our first challenge...i say for those of you that have surpassed 13 miles...push for 26 miles in the month...that would be a marathon!! =)

    In my other challenge we got to set our own miles and everyone ranges from 15-100 miles. Mine is set for 45 so hopefully by the end of this month I will have reached it :D

    Well I'm guessing that our first challenge was quite simple for those of us that have the time to run or walk. I know not all of us have a lot of time for that, so this challenge may be a little more difficult. After today I will reach 13, too!!

    Keep up your good work girls!!:happy:

    Completed another 3 miles today...16 total but the next few days I'll be missing the gym, hopefully Thursday if i'm lucky but more than likely it'll be Friday evening.
