1,000 Miles In 2012
Well I haven't reached 1,000 miles in a year yet, although I have come close a couple of times. Last year I was only able to get 400 in because of an injury to my dog and a LAY~Z EZ
So comforting sitting by my healing pup, reclining in my nice comfy chair
We are finally able to go 2 miles a day and can build on that depending on how she feels. We started the new year with 2 this morning.
Going for the 1,000 Mile goal again
Good luck everyone!
Remember to reach 1,000 all we need is to average little less than 2.75 miles a day. Very doable!

Hello there! I think I will be up for the challenge! (Or at least I'll try!) I'd like to get the majority of my miles from running. However, I will include walking and biking as well.
I suppose that today I walked about .5 a mile!
.5/1,000

I'll commit. I made it 1,015 miles of running in 2012 and I really wanted to shoot for 1212 miles in 2012, but I cut back to 3 days of running a month or so ago and it looks like that number maybe just out of reach...so the goal is still there, but I'm not completely committed to it.
14 miles yesterday.

Yep, I'm going to get in on this challenge this year...
My client and I want to do 1000k of jogging but I just realised that :
1000 kilometers = 621.371192 miles...
hmmm... So we should aim for :
1000 miles = 1,609.344 kilometers...
Not sure which one we'll accomplish but we're going to try to do either one  ...
I'm in !!
