Default November Run/Walk Challenge

I didn't see a new thread for November -- so here's one!

I didn't make my goal for October because of various pains, but I'm going to try the same goal again: 75 miles

Starting with today -- 2.6 mile run 2.6/75

LisaMarie--I will join you. I am starting the C25K on Tuesday so I think I will set my goal in minutes.

My goal this month will be: 300 minutes.

I have not exercised in a very long time. I will start small. Motivation is a huge issue also.

Goodness, I have been away from my computer for too long. After the worst move ever, I am back. My treadmill is slammed up against a wall and I can't get it down yet because of all the boxes and JUNK we have, so I am going to be conservative and say 30 for the month since I might get a slow start.

I am with you all. I have been posting my exercise under the LowCarb exercise forum to help me keep up with it. I've done 7.5 miles so far this week and am trying for 50 miles this month. (I did 1.5 miles today).

Am I allowed to count elliptical miles on this? I alternate between treadmill/elliptical (and then run outside on weekends because I'm never home when it's light out during the week!).

If so, I'll go with a goal of 60 miles. So far, I'm at 8/60. Lots to go!

I am a newbie to running so my goal is just 30 min 3 times a week. I am still doing the couch to 5k program.. week 5 .. I do longer walk / runs on the weekend (depending on the weather) .. If I can go outside I will, but I am in Michigan so I am just trying to do the cold weather thing. I am a weather wimp.

So far this month:

11/1 - 2 mile run
11/3 - 3 mile run
11/6 - 2 mile run

I'll set my goal as 30 miles this month. If DH gets his butt moving, I'll surpass that because of our Sunday 4 mile walks.

Laura, you're allowed to count whatever kind of miles you want! It's all about your personal goals!

I ran 4.4 today -- 23/75

Just did 5.5 miles on the elliptical while watching The Biggest Loser. I LOVE this show so much - it is so great for motivating me, and I always get such great workouts on Tuesday nights.

Month total is now 13.5/60
