Okay I got in 2 miles on the elliptical tonight!

I'd like to join too, if that's ok. I just put up my ticker, and now I'm going for a run.

Well done to all of you, and this is just what I need to get me back on track (I've been a slack little chicky over xmas/ny). So here we go...

See you when I get back!

No, I dont think there is a way to turn it off.

Skied on the first, shopped for 6 hours on the second--does that count? Iasked my husband how to measure the track around the pasture & he said each fencepost is 7 feet apart--I'll have a lot of counting to do!

Ok I am in for 600. I'm starting tomorrow :) Err make that today technically!

Woooo-hooooo :banana: got up and ran 4.5 miles in 24 degree weather with a pretty strong wind at 6am. I have to say that I think I need to increase my complex carb intake because I am having a hard time doing longer distances and I had to walk once during my run (which 4.5 is NOT far for me). Tomorrow is my day off from running since I go to church so I will do free weights at home, oh, and I bought a jump rope at Walmart yesterday. I heard jump-roping is one of the best cardio exercises.

Wow Kim, 4.5 miles in 24 degree weather at 6 a.m.! That's amazing.

I've been up for 2 hours, and I have not stepped foot on the treadmill. Procrastination is very dangerous, I can't mess around, so I'm getting on the [evil :devil:] treadmill as soon as I hit "submit reply".

I'm also making a commitment for tomorrow to get on the treadmill the MINUTE I get out of bed.

Thanks for helping me to stick to it! Have a great weekend.

Oh my legs ache! I've done 10 miles so far - will change my ticker this weekend. I have a goal of doing 6 miles today on the treadmill. Walking in 10 degree weather in Michigan not fun for me (ha! ha!)

Question: does it have to be strictly running/walking or can the mileage include biking as well?

I wouldn't think it would matter. The point is just to get your body moving, right? :carrot:

Ennay - Thanks so much for looking for me. I just cleaned out my history and think I can remember to reset it going forward.

I did a run 2.xx this AM, I'll be walking later on with the dogs so I'll get my totals then. Good job ladies!

I agree with thinpossible. Biking, skiing, elliptical.....all of those are fine. It's a fun way to track mileage with a supportive group.

Welcome everyone!!! Make sure you all are stretching and hydrating!!

5 more for me this morning, the weather has been very nice the past two days.

nalia 01-03-2009 02:43 PM

Yikes, I'm a few days late getting in on this post. Hope I can still join in. I was doing really well losing, then hit a plateau and was ready to give up. I think this is just the thread I need to motivate me to bust through this...
I'm in for 500 and hopefully more.
