    I'd like to join! I did a 100 mile challenge for April, which I achieved but I would have liked the number of 'running' miles to have been higher!

    I am going to set a goal 80 running miles for the month - I managed 64 in April so it would be good to up this number for May!

    I'm in for 60 miles again this month. I finally met my goal last month, so I am going to try and exceed it this month :bigsmile:

    For those who wonder, how to get a ticker...

    You go to this site www.tickerfactory.com
    Choose: Exercise & Fitness Ticker
    Pick your ticker background and icon.
    Set password to your ticker (the pswrd is for you to update, so the ticker can move forward)
    You also set units (miles, km) and your target.

    Then you copy-paste the first code they have there & voila, you are all set up.

    I must be technologically challenged because I'm not seeing/getting any codes :( When I choose the ticker I want, nothing happens.

    I would like to throw something into the ring, but don't wear a hat.
    I have a bad knee and cannot run, but still try to walk everyday. Here are my goals.

    100 miles walking, 200 miles on my new bike. Really need this motivation. Carla

    After you have already selected the background and your ticker icon, you come to the Setup page (where you have to enter password, units, target).
    You need to fill that out and press NEXT. You come to a page, where you see your ticker- under that is a sentence (you may need to scroll a bit):

    Cut and paste code for most boards and web pages:

    bbCode:
    (Message Boards code, FertilityFriend.com's boards, phpBB based boards, Invision Power Board, vBulletin...)
    And in that box is a code that you have to copy-paste here :) Just the code - nothing else needed.

    Hope this helps!

    I am in again this month. I had knee surgery 2 weeks ago so I am currently on crutches and won't be getting any mileage the beginning of the month but am hoping to be able to get atleast a measly 10 miles by the end of this month. Might be a small challnge but a very challenging challenge in my current situation. Good luck everyone!

    @chancie72: take the time to recover completely before doing anything. Great to see you back!

    Yay! I found you guys! And it's 9:51 AM and we are already on page 3! Awesome!

    I'm going for 200 miles again. I was off by 30 miles last month and I plan on blowing my goal out of the water this month! Totally movitated to prove to myself I can do this!

    Plus, in the old days, if I failed to make my goal, I'd just give up. Love that -this time it has just motivated me more!

    Love all of you guys! And welcome to the new faces!

    These challenges have helped me change my life!!!!

    I'd love to, but I have no idea how to know how many miles I've walked. If I get one of those pedometer thingies is it a reliable measure and is one brand better than another? I have to vary my walk a lot, because I get bored with the scenery, so it's not like I can just measure out a course with my car and then walk it every day (I've done it that way).

    I'm in again!!! As I made it to my goal last month I've decided to up the miles from 210 to 230. I've also done my first 5 miles. Ticker attached and updated.

    You can look up your distance on google map. That's what I do to find new running routes.

    Hi - This sounds like some much needed motivation on my end. How do I get started? Where do I get the ticker and input my goals/progress? Thanks!

    OH that's brilliant and I love not spending money on one more gadget. However, it won't work for the walks we take in the park where I live, since Googlemaps doesn't show mileage beyond the entrance gate (hard to believe, but there are still places that Google can't or won't go). I'll figure out how to work around it.
