    not been doing to bad on my miles, my food is a completely different matter though! need to sort my head out!
    Also most my miles where running, and some cycling but it is starting to become more walking miles! (taking family out for walks) but its something and am moving!! just want some decent weather so i can go out and do a massive bike ride need to unwind so to speak!!!!
    But thank you guys for this motivation!!! xxx

    Walking is awesome exercise! You can burn more calories per minute walking with the family than riding, but the miles accumulate much slower. I love to walk, but I rode another 8.9 miles today with my 9yr old son. We can do this!

    I feel like I am totally bringing up the rear! LOL Maybe I can hit 80 miles, I doubt I'll get to 100. I'm less than 1/3 the way there so far...

    Thanks ladies! This challenge is totally inspiring me to do more. Instead of just going on a 3 miles walk today with my kids(I have 4 aged 8 and under), I took them on a 5 mile walk/run... the younger two in the double jogger and the older two on their bikes. My hubby is deployed to Afghanistan, so I gotta take them with me whenever I run/walk.

    But this challenge pushed me those extra 2 miles today!

    Well, I took a few days off because my back was really hurting me, but back at it today. I ran 3.5 miles this morning and I may try to squeeze in a 2-3 mile walk/run this afternoon if the kids let me. I really doubt I'll hit 100, but even 60 would be awesome for me. I just started running last month, so before September I was getting 0 miles every month!
