Aww @jeanniewes, you're not OLD! You're young at heart!! <3 Maybe we could call you the group counselor... You gotta admit, some of us need a little counseling from time to time. :) 43.5 total miles

Don't let @SteveCro fool ya, he's faaaar from the sane one in this group. I mean, come on... He sits in front of fans, leans close and hums so he can hear his voice sound all funny. Wait a minute... Oh nevermind, that was ME that does that! Only because he told me to!!!! HA! @girlinahat, you keep him straight. :wink:…

@tiffyree23 & @homemademama, my hat is off to you guys! Seriously, I wanted to be a runner so bad. In high school, in college, before kids, after kids... It just never clicked for me. I so admire runners. They just look so... intense and healthy and determined! I'm all those things but without the wind blowing in my face.…

Hey hey hey, fellow milers! So good to see some new-comers. Welcome! It's just getting hotter and hotter down here in the south. Sweltering!!! I am one incredibly thankful woman for some a/c. :) 36 total miles

@Machka9, I'm big enough to admit that I had to Google 7° Celsius to see what it is Fahrenheit... 44°! Oh that sounds positively lovely!!!! My car said 103° yesterday at 3:00!! That is ludicrous stuff... And I finally took the time to view your pix from your trip to Canada. I'm officially green with envy. I want to go…

Good words, Steve! Good words indeed! Can you people say H.O.T.?? Oh my word, it is so hot and humid here in my neck of the woods! I'm afraid I would simply melt if I had to walk outdoors. Only in the early mornings would it be feasible but I'm out the door by 6:00 for work, so hello treadmill. :) 22.5 total miles

@salfit2, I had to chuckle a bit at your post. The thing about coworkers... Well, I guess they mean well but the most I usually get from this interaction is a little schooling on how NOT to be. If you are desiring to better yourself through setting a goal of 100 miles, I and all the rest of us here applaud you! I think…

Hey guys! How exciting to see the new recruits! Welcome to you all. I've been out of pocket for this past long Independence Day weekend. Back in the saddle today! @Machka9, you are one busy little lady! But what a great time you shared with us! Thank you for that, truly. @salfit2, I can't help but encourage you to get…

@girlinahat , you got it perfectly! The challenge is to MOVE and the goal you set is yours to set or reset as needed. No losers here. @lulubeanzy , welcome! And if you happen to not make your goal, you still get kudos because you put forth effort AND you put up with us crazy, oftentimes silly, most times hilarious milers…

Happy July 1st, guys!!! Yep, Jesi is back and raring to make goal! Sticking with my 100 mile goal. I really missed the motivation in June but that's all behind us now, right? :D You guys did great, btw. Let's do this!

Steve, I predict you make goal by the weekend. ;)

It is a little quieter than usual. Maybe folks are just too hot. Steve, I'm so sorry for all those farming families. I grew up on a farm, it was our livelihood, so I know how a season of bad weather can be quite detrimental.

Hey hey hey!!! I'm so slappin impressed with you guys! It's probably a good thing I'm sittin June out. I'd be choking on your dust anyway. :D It is desperately hot down here in Cajun Country. Seriously, had to break out my gills just to breathe. But my word, the produce! Gardens are flourishing with fresh yumminess! I…

@Machka9, add me to the incredibly impressed! Your day sounds positively awesome! Happy Friday, Milers!

Keep up the good work, guys! @girlinahat, you have enough energy to take up my slack this month! :D Steve, it's official, you are just too much... Only you would sing on a walking thread! Hey, Whistle While You Work It! HA!

Hey guys, look who's back in town! Sorry for my prolonged absence. It's a long story so I won't bore you. Especially with all these hilarious, tho painful, tales you guys are sharing. I can very honestly say that I've never ridden my bike while intoxicated. Heck, I get dizzy on my front porch swing if the wind is blowing!…

Hey guys! I'm baaaaack! Oh my word, what a glorious break I had! :smiley: Looks like you are all off to a great start. Let me catch up... 23.53 total miles

Hey, it's FRIDAY!! And I'm off work next week! Yay! Vacay week!!! :smiley: I'll be out of internet range so I won't hear from you guys for a while. Have a great end to May and a lovely beginning to June!!! My youngest little bugger turns 14 this next week! I'm waaaaaay to young to have a 14 year old... 99.87 total miles…

I have exactly 2 threads bookmarked and this is one of them. I click on it everyday just to see if any new advice has been given. @usmcmp has advised and helped an untold number of folks right here on this site. I'm one of them! She cares about other people and truly enjoys sharing her expertise and guiding others to a…

Hey guys!!! Took an extra long weekend. yaaaaawn, stretch.... It was so incredibly lovely that I'm doing again this next weekend. :D It is raining, raining, raining down here! Our neighbors to the west in Texas are really getting hit hard. There have been many deaths due to severe and very fast flooding... Truly so…

Hey guess what? Not only is it Friday but Monday is a holiday for us U.S. Federal workers!!! Yup, that means a long weekend and boy do I need it! :smiley: You guys have a most lovely weekend! 82.14 total miles

@mandybaker100, I would love to see Edinburgh one day. So glad you experienced that. And @jeanniewes, I'm with you. These posts are so great and uplifting! Thanks to all of you guys. <3 Ok, so yesterday I ran off and forgot my Fitbit!! GRRRRRR! If I didn't live so far from work, I would have ran home to get it. But no,…

G'morning guys! You all are smashing this thing. How exciting! Jeannie, you are very close to goal. Wait, is your goal 100? or did you jack it up to 150? I forget... Either way, you're dusting it. :D 75.01 total miles

HA! Steve, I LOVE you! Omgoodness, I thought I had the only incredibly weird brain that thought of such inane, yet quite interesting, things such as this! I love it, I just love it! Dude, we could jack some thought processes around here. :p Maybe we're not the only ones.... (insert The Twilight Zone jingle) lol Happy…

Hey Guys! Happy Monday to you all. Hope you had a great weekend. I had a fab one myself. We got a couple crazy thunderstorms with wind and such but nothing too bad. Now it's back to the weekday grind. Once again, working for the weekend. Y'all are doing so great with your steppin and bikin and even a little flyin...? lol…

Welcome @AshleySoutter! Get to steppin. ;) Happy FRIDAY! You guys just have no idea how much I wanted to start my weekend early! I thought of every reason in the book to skip the office today... Yet, here I am. Dependable me. lol 54.01 total miles

Jeannie, you sure one little hard worker! We finally got our garden in the ground too. Running a bit late this year... But hoping for a bumper crop! You guys are nailing this thing! I just love reading all the progress. :) 48.93 total miles

Gooooood Wednesday morning! Looking forward to yet another soggy warm Spring day. Not a horrible thing. The garden is looking well. :) 42.95 total miles

Jeannie!!! Hugs right backatcha, my sweet friend! You make me tired too! You do more in the first half of your day that I get done by 8:00pm! :D Check out those numbers you are posting... Wowza, is all I can say.

Hey good morning, guys!!! I've been away so let me catch up a bit... 39.46 total miles
