Talking 2012 Distance Challenge! (500 Miles in 1 year)
Hi All! In the middle of 2011 I created a thread called 365 miles in 365 days. For 2012 I am ready to bump it up a notch and make an even larger goal!

On average you will need to get in 10 miles per week or close to 42 miles a month!

You can count your miles in any fashion:
Swimming, biking, walking, running, eliptical, steps, etc!

So I guess the next question is...who is down for the challenge??

Count me in! I'd like to run 500 miles this year, and if it's more, even better.

I'd also like to run my first 1/2 marathon this year.

Week 3: 7.065 miles (I'm done for the week. Not bad for a first week for me lol).

Count me in! I will get out there and walk today with my dog!

As soon as enough time has gone by, I will put a Ticker Factory link in my signature, when I am allowed to have a signature.
