    I was here in mind - but no computer
    I started the month at 219.6lb
    I was hoping to do the Leslie Sansone challenge but missed the start, i'll be carrying on though. The kids are back at school now and the drop off is a 2 mile round trip which atm i'm doing 3 times a day as my daughter is on half days!

    That's great work. Well keep at it with me at least. :smile:

    Just a question. How is everyone tracking their miles? I use an app called 'routes' to outline my... routes. You can store many different routes you do, so as I usually divide my milage over the day I can just add up each route or add on an additional amount. I also sometimes use a pedometer but my stride varies so perosonally this isn't very useful to me for counting distances.

    I'll join in. Just saw this today :)

    September 120 + Miles Walking Challenge
    Starting Weight - 169.0 (Thursday 1st September)
    Week 1 – 13.93 miles and 165.5 lbs (Thursday 8th September)
    Week 2 - xx miles and xxx lbs (Thursday 15th September)
    Week 3 - xx miles and xxx lbs (Thursday 22nd September)
    Week 4 - xx miles and xxx lbs (Thursday 29th September)

    I use a pocket pedometer and I've converted my steps to miles. I went to a couple functions where a pedometer would not be appropriate so my steps are quite low last week.

    Yah, I've lost 1 whole stone since late July :smile: ... but still got a lot to go :grumble: . 30.6 miles walked and 1.7lbs off this week. Halfway through now, my goal for the end of the month is to be under 16st so I've got 5 more pounds to achieve that. I think I'll be doing some additional cardio with the walking just to make sure I do reach my goal.

    Tailgating at a baseball game and going out for my anniversary really didn't help my weight loss this week. Oh well, maybe next week! :)

    Hey, nice to have another groupie!!! Its up to you but just try to aim for 30 miles for the next 2 weeks and use this as a push for your overall challenge or you could go into burnout.
