I keep seeing these 100 mile challanges.
Basically you try to go 100 miles in a month. That includes walking, running, swimming, eliptical, bike, etc.
It sounds like a great idea... but a LOT for a beginner... I was thinking of doing a version of that for beginners...
Anyone wanna join me in doing 25 miles in January?
That is 1,25 miles a day. Totally doable!

    I am down for it! does this have to be outside walking or does walking at home count too? I found an online video in 2 parts for 2 miles!

    It can be either. If I had a treadmill I'd make it 50... but it's winter and COLD. lol

    finding... you can totally guestimate. I'd totally allow it!
    I'm proud of everyone for trying this. It's fun to challenge yourself.
    I look forward to excercising more because I have this goal to reach.
