  • November 11, 2015 Green today? Yes 10/25 Streak: 5 day Exercise today? Yes 7/25 Early morning run in the dark around my neighborhood. I liked not being able to see the hills. 4.36 at a 9:35 pace.
  • November 10, 2015 Green today? Yes 9/25 Streak: 4 day Exercise today? No 6/25 Other obligations took over my evening today so no exercise, two days in a row! Been a long time since that's happened. Tomorrow evening looks busy too so I'll get up early in the morning. @MelissaPhippsFeagins, those Eagle Scouts are amazing.…
  • November 9, 2015 Green today? Yes 8/25 Streak: 3 days Exercise today? No 6/25 Rest day today with some travel so very few steps. Won't even come close to my goal so it really was a rest day ☺
  • November 8, 2015 Green today? Yes 7/25 Streak: 2 day Exercise today? Yes 6/25 Finished housework, caught up on paperwork and 4.2 miles done in 45 minutes (included a hill workout). Been productive this weekend! It's been an inspiring weekend too... Way to go @bbinoa! You should be incredibly proud of yourself! Your hard…
  • November 7, 2015 Green today? Yes 6/25 Streak: 1 day Exercise today? Yes 5/25 Much better day today! Got some housework done and some quiet me time along with a 5.6 mile run. Took 56 minutes.
  • Hi Rob, I got my fitbit thru a program at work. I actually really like it and it helps me earn cash when I hit the goals of the plan. I've used that cash to hire a coach with a local running club for a few months. Running isn't really my goal but it's definitely helping me increase my endurance. I really wish the distance…
  • In still trying to figure out out and I'm almost 45! A gap year helps lots of kids figure out what they do and don't want. Ben's known for a couple years that he'd like to go into engineering. My daughter has no idea. I think it'll be a different approach for her but it's all good.
  • November 6, 2015 Green today? No 5/25 Streak: 0 day Exercise today? No 4/25 Rest day and after the way the first swim meet of the year went (I run the timing and computer system for my son's Y and HS teams), comfort food and a couple glasses of wine. Red day but I'm ok with that... Especially at the bottom of glass number…
  • This was my experience. I walked a marathon (which was also a half and a relay) last month. We started an hour and a half ahead of the runners. The lead runners caught up with us and were very encouraging - that actually caught me off guard though I'm not sure why. I've always found runners to be pretty friendly. We were…
  • November 5, 2015 Green today? Yes 5/25 Streak: 5 day Exercise today? Yes 4/25 30 minute easy jog on the treadmill. Rest day tomorrow since I am helping run a swim meet for my son's Y team after work. I know for a fact my fitbit isn't reliable for mileage. I never use it for that and that's the reason I'd never buy one. But…
  • November 4, 2015 Green today? Yes 4/25 Terrible munchies lately. I think it's the time change and the fact that it's dark so early now. Streak: 4 day Exercise today? Yes 3/25 30 minute treadmill run then some sprints up my stairs. It was supposed to be a hill, 10 second sprints, after the run, but it was dark when I got…
  • November 3, 2015 Green today? Yes 3/25 Streak: 3 day Exercise today? Yes 2/25 Treadmill. 35 minutes altogether: 5 minute jog for warm up and cool down. The rest was 20 seconds fast, 20 seconds faster, 20 seconds fastest then a minute at a slow jog. Kind of fun actually!
  • Anybody use a fitbit? I do because I got it thru work and we can earn money, lol. I do love it though. Just recently started the challenges. I never add my workouts in, just sync the steps with mfp, which is why I add exercise as a status . What do others do?
  • November 1, 2015 Green today? Yes 1/30 Streak: 1 day Exercise today? Yes 1/30 Hill workout today. Ran up and down the same hill 7 times, lol. Good thing it's tucked away so people didn't wonder what the heck I was up to. Total of 5 miles with an average pace of 10.53.

  • @bbinoa, my office has a free facility too. I have a feeling I'll be using it this winter. I'll probably go after work though. I only get a 30 minute lunch and I'm usually scarfing something down as I fly out the door to another site. I like your goal for spring!

  • I prefer to go it alone most of the time. I liked having company for my long walks but need time to myself to work on my own goals. Especially right now. I'm very self conscious with running and would worry too much to enjoy someone else's company. Pushy people drive me crazy. Your goals are very different. Seems to me…
