1000 miles in 2013
Hi Everyone,
I joined and finished a 1000 mile challenge for the year 2012. I am challenging myself once again to walk 500 miles and do Elliptical for 5000 minutes this year. I don't care how you accumulate your miles, just join me :) Let's get moving!! Remember to reach 1,000 all we need is to average little less than 2.75 miles a day. Very doable! |
I'll join your 1,000 miles in 2013 thread. Thanks for starting this Sum 38. Day 1, here we go!

Nice to have you here Working

I also will join in on 1000 miles in 2013! Thanks for starting this thread up and I know EZ will be very HAPPY that we are carrying this on into the new year! I had hoped to get started today but have that nasty cold bug that is going around... will get started in the next couple days though!
1/1--Sick 1/2--Sick 1/3--Sick (maybe tomorrow) 1/4--Sick(will this ever go away?) 1/5--Sick(I think round 2 is getting me now!) 1/6--WATP's--1 mile (finally a start!) 1/7--WATP's--1 mile 1/8--Nothing--got caught up on a little housework before becoming exhausted. 1/9--No walking but got out for Daniel Bible study today (Beth Moore) 1/10--No walking but did go for second Bible study, Breaking Free (Beth Moore) 1/21-- WATPs-- 1 Mile Total--3 miles |
I would love to join as well.
I am so excited to be doing this. Yay me!!! Yay you! YAY US!!!!! |
Me too!
Made 1.5 on the treadmill this am! I can start there. |
I would like to join this challenge as well, I wear a fit bit (when I can remember)
|
I'd like to give it a try. I walk/run 10-12 miles a week, but I wanna try to walk a couple miles on days I don't run. If I add 7-8 miles a week, that'd get me to 1000. Mostly I sit on the couch on winter days I don't run. In summer I sometimes bike on 'off' days. But having this goal will get me out there walking I am sure. BTW, roughly how far is 10,000 steps?
|
I haven't forgotten this-- just still sick with this lousy cold. No energy, no voice, lots of cough and leg aches... I will get started though and then have to do some making up.
|
One mile down yesterday - 2 down today... Only 997 to go!
:) |
This will certainly be a challenge. I did want to clock up 500 miles as one of my goals for the year but challenging myself too 1,000 sounds pretty amazing too. I need to start getting back into walking soon. During the summer I was walking 5 miles a day for a good few weeks. Now I'm back at college and the evenings are dark and dull, I stopped and use my stepper at home. I read somewhere that 2000 steps would be the same as one mile which I would do when I'm using it. I've exams starting tomorrow for a week and a half. Then I've two weeks off where I want to kick start these 1,000 miles outside as well as what I get with the stepper. Can't wait for the long evenings to return. Sum, I watched the 2012 thread and you are such an inspiration! :) Good luck everyone this year clocking up the 1,000 miles.

Can bicycle miles count, too?

Tabby Anyway you can get the miles in works for me :)

Count me in!
I am pretty old (57) but started jogging last spring. I can run 2 or 3 miles at a time, but I should not do it every day, so I try to ride my bike on the days I don't run. It's a challenge for me to run 30 miles a month because I teach school and I'm in two orchestras and a bluegrass group, so lots of evenings are taken up with practice or performance. But if I combine the running miles with some biking miles, maybe I can do this. :) |
This was from one of EZ's first post on his original thread for 2012. Just about anything that gets you and moving counts!
"and biking and hiking and wheel-chairing and swimming and surfing and mountain climbing and......and....and....." |
