    Just came back from travel and did 10 miles while traveling. Happy about that as I usually skip doing the cardio - but now I didn't.

    Running a 5K race tomorrow... BRRRR!

    and doing a checkpoint! So please report on your totals & other running successes (:

    I will try to start a group too.

    keep going! It is gold and we can do this!!!!

    Here is a link to your 'old' signature, courtesy of Mike, MFP admin person: [all the info is still there]:

    click the link below:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/signature

    Changing it won't have any impact, but if there is information you need from your signature, you can view it by following that link.

    Being sick was no way to start this challenge. And then when I got back to running, I sort of had forgotten about it. But now I have remembered and will go to update the spreadsheet. I'm sorry I've been MIA and missed out on pages of motivational support.

    But now my "ticker" is gone. I guess this is something I need to work on.
  • leahdd
    leahdd Posts: 7 Member
    OK. I seem to have a weight loss ticker, which I don't remember creating, and still don't have my miles run ticker. Still a work in progress.

    I duplicated the instructions from the October thread on how to add a ticker below:

    To add a ticker in your signature, please select (click) the "Signature" link on the forum's top liners, see here:

    1-mfp.jpg

    then copy past the ticker code here (see pink highlighted area):

    2-mfp.jpg


    My page doesn't say that. It says: Home --> Recent Posts ----> My Topics ---> Settings (not Signature). When I click on Settings, it asks me if I want my ticker to be displayed on all posts. I do, and that's how I got my current ticker to display. But I don't know how to make my exercise ticker show up. I personally don't care (and don't particularly want) the weight loss ticker on there.

    Help.

    You can't add a ticker to the signature anymore - MFP removed that option last week. You can however, paste the signature in the actual message.
  • I have been crazy busy lately and haven't been able to run as much as I have wanted to. I had a good 10 mile run tonight.

    11/9 - 2 miles

    11/12 - 10 miles

    Ran my first 10k yesterday along the Chicago lakefront. It was amazing! It was a cool sunny fall morning...45 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. I ran the whole thing and happy with a 1:04:13! My goal was under 1:05 and the beginning was a little crammed up as usual so no complaints. The best part was I finished and already driving home while watching the runners still going my along the lakefront!

    Now to catch up on my miles...Yikes!

    Ran a 5K today and a 1M fun run - finished as first master female (for the 5K) - super excited! Got a $50.00 gift certificate! I will get some running gear for that - maybe a long sleeve running shirt. My 1 mile time was 7:18 minutes! Whohoo!

    I am in with 3 miles today- total of 32 miles. Now I am off to Scottsdale and will be back next Monday late. I need to be sneaky to find ways to run while on this trip.
    Nothing like a challenge

    I had the same problem last week, while traveling for business, fortunately the hotel I stayed at had a fitness center with great machines! Good luck - you can do it - I love Scottsdale!

    I would love to get in on this challenge. I have been in the Move Your *kitten* Challenge on MFP for 10 months which is any which way you can move your *kitten* (walk, run, bike, elliptical) - but I am also a new runner so I would like to log my running miles and get support and info from other runners. I started the C25K program last December and got to Week 8 and hurt my foot. Had foot surgery in May and then started the program again September 1, 2011. I am now at Week 8 again!! (WOO-HOO!) I run every other day and walk the rest day in between. Today I am up to 18 miles running for the month and I think I can do 50 for the month! Thanks :)

    Very glad you are joining us - you are on the spreadsheet! Congrats on your progress so far!
