Well done everyone, and thanks for your replies. I walked a half marathon a few years ago - no way I could do that at my current fitness level so I have much respect for your upcoming challenges.

I just found this challenge again. My fitbit died and I haven't been counting steps/kms for quite a while but the lovely people at fitbit have sent me a new one so I'm back in business. Good to see some 'old faces' still here :) I'm in for 150 kms this month, walking and maybe a bit of biking. Short month and not a good…

Awesome total Leanz!

Another lb gone - slowly but surely creeping downwards...

Final report from me too - 111.7 miles. Thanks for the support everyone, it certainly got me moving on days when I didn't feel like it :-)

I'm in New Zealand :)

Not quite beachfront, but just a 5 minute walk away and I am very lucky :-)

Great to see some Hibiscus Coast members here! I'm in Stanmore Bay.

Completed my 100 plus a bit more today. All walking, morning beach walks with my dog helped :-) As long as I get that walk in I can be pretty sure I'll get my 10,000 steps a day.

Spreadsheet's looking good today, thanks Lexbubbles!

Yes ^^ :-)

My two entries disappeared so have logged them again. Hope that doesn't mess things up for you again Lexbubbles! Good job it was only two entries or I might not have remembered the amounts :-)

Thanks lexbubbles :-)

Yes, definitely some gremlins at work there. Yesterday was fine but today - think I'll wait till it's sorted till I log today's kms.

I'll join you on this challenge. I walk on the beach with my dog most mornings and use my Garmin Vivofit to count steps. Yesterday was 10270.

Finally got it. Had to change my browser to Chrome, Safari wouldn't do it.

Can't edit the spreadsheet to add my name :( is that because I'm on my iPad and not my computer?

I'm a walker - too old and heavy to run :-( My dog encourages me to get out for a walk every day so will just need to up the distance a bit which will be good for both of us! I'll be logging in kms.

I'd love to join you. Can I log kms instead of miles?

I'm in too! Just back with mfp after a long break and have a couple of weight loss goals for next year so this challenge is perfect. I'll be logging kgs though as I'm in New Zealand. Hope that's ok with admin?

I'd like to join too please, getting an early start for January! I walk most days so it will be good to track but mine will be kms, not miles, as I'm in New Zealand. Hope that's ok ;-)

I have had a fitbit ultra (no longer available) but after breaking the clip twice replaced it with a vivofit. However I find the wristband bulky and uncomfortable to wear and am thinking of getting another fitbit (thanks for the tip about using flybuys - never thought of that!). Both the ultra and vivofit have plus points…

Saving - thanks for the great links!

Is this FB page still running? I couldn’t find it and would love to connect with other ‘older’ MFP members, particularly around Auckland.

The Coconut & Greek is divine. It’s my evening treat (carefully weighed!) with some stewed fruit.

22 Feb Have been MIA for a few days but total of 20.9 kms to log - which I think means I've hit goal :happy:

Great post, thanks OP. Really puts things into perspective.
