    Wow 90 miles huh? I'm in. Part of mine will be done pushing my son in the stroller outside so what can I use to track my distance?

    I use endomondo as my GPS tracker, it is a free app in the android market, I'm pretty sure there's an iPhone app as well

    I do have an android phone however I recently canceled the Internet to save $ every month. I read on google that every 2000 steps is one mile (approx) so maybe I will have to get a pedometer, just don't know how accurate it will be. Thank you

    I searched several sites and found that if you measure 50 feet and walk that normally while counting your steps you can figure out how many steps you take in a mile. So I averaged 23 steps in 50 feet. 50/23=2.1 steps. So in one mile I walk 5280/2.1=2514.3 steps. That is at a normal pace. Give it a try to get a better reading of your actual steps.

    you can use mapmyrun.com to map where you walk and it will give you your mileage. I use it both to figure out what my routes are going to be (if I am looking to hit a specific mileage) and for how far I've actually gone (in the event I just hit the road and come home when I'm tired).

    Let's do it!!
  • I'm in! This will be my 1st challenge as well. Ninety miles in 31 days? I can do that, especially since I'm training for a 5K.
    Where do we log these miles?


    Yes log here!

    Is there a way to keep track on MFP?
  • Count me in! I will be counting my steps at work as well. Since I am moving majority of the day at work. I have a pocket pedometer that is pretty accurate. Also will be logging on the treadmill... Hopefully will push me some more!

    Just posting for later.

  • Count me in too! Although, I've hurt my knee pretty bad, so my first few days might not show much promise :/ But I'll definitely pick up pace next week!
  • I am in and turning 50 this year -- in need of some serious motivation. I will read through to see what the challenge is. Can I assume it is to complete 90 miles of walking, running, etc. but not biking?
