Ez 1,000 Miles In '11
 

Post it here if you want to set a goal of 1,000 miles in 2011 :carrot:

Doesn't matter if you :running: walk or run it :swim: swim it :bike2: bike it :tread: treadmill it or even :bike: scooter it....

it's EZ ;) Less than 2.75 miles a day....even if you take a day off each week it's only a 5K (3.2 miles) a day....the important thing is that you do get out there and off that couch or out of that chair :)

heck, take a day off each week, give me 3 miles and I'll give you the .2 miles if you park further away at the grocery store, take the stairs, etc.....you know the :drill: drill.

Ok, so I have set this goal 3 years in a row now and haven't accomplished it :(.....but I have recorded 2,181 miles in the last 3 years....works out to an average of over 725 miles each year :carrot:

Reaching the goal is important but it isn't the defining moment of my journey :no:

that would be the effort I put into reaching it :yes: My effort has been about 75%....

as you can see from my miles ;)

Have a great year on the journey to your goals :)

Angie and I started the New Year this morning taking the golden spoilers on their usual Saturday morning 3 mile walk...we skipped Starbucks though...not sure they were even open...since my lovely wife wanted her tea before we took off...allowing the sun to warm the chill in the air a bit...

3/1000 MILES

I'm in! I will be running mine and hope to do it by logging in about 20+ miles per week. I'm on my way, 5 miles today. Let's do it!

Outstanding NCUNEO....no reason why we southern Californians can't get a good jump on things with our great weather...since the rain of course!

I'm in!!!

3.4 miles yesterday, run with walk/cough breaks. I'm getting over a URI and I felt like an asthmatic porcupine, AND it was like 16 degrees! But I did it.

3.4/???? (I'll come up with a reasonable goal later)

Socal unite! Really I couldn't ask for a better place to live, there's never a good excuse not to be outside exercise, although the rain has been a little rough.

6 miles today - 989 to go!

I'm in too! Ran 4 yesterday, 8ish planned for today, I think. I'm only counting running miles. Tentatively aiming for a March half marathon (my fifth!).

I took the mutts out for 3 miles between ballgames...got caught in the afternoon rain about halfway.....fun stuff!

6/1000 MILES

3 miles today, much needed break tomorrow. I ran 4 days in a row this week due to some scheduling issues.

986 to go!

The rain passed through just in time for the mutts and I to get our 3 in as Angie left to start back at school. I have a few more days off then out of town for a week or so.

9/1000 MILES

I'm in! I need to figure out how many miles I did last year, as I haven't bothered to add the last few weeks of December yet. Then I will set a more realistic goal.

8+ miles yesterday, 3ish miles today. I'm somewhere around 16 miles for the year, but I won't know until I upload my runs from my GPS to my computer at the end of the week. Yes, I'm too lazy to do the math on my own. :)

Great job everyone! :carrot:

I was able to get 4 miles in with the dogs this morning....a gorgeous but cold morning. So happy the sun was on the side coming home :)

13/1000 MILES

At first I thought

"HECK YES! That sounds GREAT!"

Until I read that basically I have to do several miles every single day.

And then I thought

"...ugh..."

And THEN I realized...

"...that's probably why you've been on 3FC yet the same weight for three years..."

And then I SAID -

"...where did I put my shoes..?"

I couldn't run it, but I might be able to run, bike, ski, and walk it. :D

I just did all the math and I came in at 1,356.3 last year, with a slowdown at the end of the year. So, I'm setting 2011 at 1200 walk/run/bike.

To date:
1/2: +8, bike
1/4: +2.3, walk

I hit 1000 last year, so I'm sure I can do it again this year. I'm in!

So far I have 18.38 miles running, walking, and cycling.

It's 8.1 miles round trip to work and I try to bike as often as I can.

1.5 hours of cardio at the gym got me in at..

2.25 - Elliptical
5.50 - Stationary Bike
2.0 - Walking/Jogging (20 minutes straight jogging, a personal and painful best for me!)

Grand total of 9.75 miles. And then I took the stairs instead of the elevator back to my third floor walk-up apartment, and that has to count for something too, surely, lol.

awesome!

The girls and I just finished our last morning walk for a while so we added an extra mile since it is a nice morning here. I am heading out of town for a week or so in the morning, assuming my job passes inspection today. I will try to get some miles in but it may be hard with the overtime we are expected to be doing.

Good Luck with your quest for 1,000 LADIES!

20/1000 MILES

Well, I really should
 

I totally stopped keeping track last fall when I switched to hiking from . So this year I'll keep track of everything together

running/hiking/elliptical 1000

biking 1000

so far this year 8 RHE, 8 Biking

You all are amazing!

17.5/1000

plus 4 RHE
12/1000 RHE
8/ 1000 Bike

I'm in too!!!
I've started a countdown on Jan 1st...
I try to walk 3 km per day, to reach my total of 1000 km in 2011.
so far it's going great!!!
my countdown goes like this:
1000km - 19.5km walked so far = 980.5 km to go

I love to see the numbers going down!!!

When I joined 3FC last year and saw this thread, I thought, These people are crazy!

This year I'm in. One thousand miles running.

So far I've done:
1/2: 5.8 miles
1/3: 4.7 miles
1/5: 3 miles
1/6: 5.4 miles

18.9 miles down, 981.1 to go (please check my math!

I have yet to decide what to do today. I'm doing a half-marathon training program through my local road runners club, and the schedule calls for 6 slow but I'm thinking about 3 fast. Decisions, decisions!

today I walked
980.5km -3.5km(today's walk)= 977km(to go) yayyyy for me!!!
:carrot::carrot:

I'm in, I love walking...Though I've gotten a late start, I really want to try this out :)

4 miles today at a faster pace, puts me at at over 26 so far.

8.4/1000 so far :)
Ice is my enemy so that is just from walking in place while watching two hours of comedy acts in my living room :) I can't wait for it to be nice out, then I'll be able to go on longer, nicer walks :)

Well I didn't get a chance to add any miles since I was out of town from last friday until tonight....

but I am bumping this 'cause my wife says "we are walking to Starbucks in the morning...me and the girls missed you!"....

carry on....

:carrot: Well my wife and I got the girls out for 4 miles this morning. Took off at 6:30 down to Starbucks in our shorts and t-shirts! It doesn't get any better than that!

24/1000 MILES

55.6/1000 miles for me. I've mentioned this goal to many of my friends, so I get lots of support and good natured heckling to keep me on track.

1 sunny morning at the beach at 6:30 ~ 2 dogs ~ 3 miles ~ 1 bacon/basil/tomato/jack cheese omelet and 1 awesome wife :carrot: MLK Day/Life is good :)

27/1000 MILES

Me and the spoiled brats got in 3 miles this morning...you woulda swore it was a spring morning! Sun was shining, birds were singing, I was in shorts and a light sweatshirt...and it was before 7am!

I will be slow to get miles in after tomorrow though as my next project for a couple of months will be 100+ miles away.

Keep going gals!

30/1000 MILES

Can a newbie join in? I ran 1,106 miles last year. This year my goal is 1400 miles.

:carrot: Absolutely! :carrot:

Well I was able to get 3 in with my wife and the dogs before she headed off to her monthly BUNKO. My boss sent me to a job closer to home this afternoon.

33/1000 MILES

I'm in, too. Mine will be mixed, and I'll have to edit this post to get my YTD tally later on tonight (after my swim!)

1/19 - 8.2 miles (bike)
1/17 - 7.7 miles (bike), 1 Mi (run) - 8.7 miles

Total: 16.9 mi

Whoo hoo! Thanks for welcoming the noob :)

I've got 62 miles in for the year so far.

4.5 miles today on the treadmill (hating New England weather at the moment) putting me at just over 80 miles for the year. I have a spreadsheet that tracks my miles versus where I should be at any given point during the year that I love updating.
