do you need a pedometer to do this or can you go by miles? If miles are ok - I would love to join!

No you don't need a pedometer at all! Miles are what it is all about! Great having you, Bailey! And Jayde, HM is our mileage keeper LOL so I am sure she will be posting more info soon!

Bailey, I hadn't planned on wearing a pedometer but only logging in miles from the treadmill. I'm glad you are joining us.

Joy, I gotta get my road atlas dusted off...
Maybe I will even post it on the wall..

Welcome to Bailey and Jayde :woo:

I thought I had responded yesterday, but I think that I previewed and never submitted, oops! As Dance said mileage is just fine, a lot of are using pedometers, but really either way. In fact with mileage it'll be even easier to track.

I am glad that you'll both be joining us. :)

...and the mileage from Hopedale to Seattle is 3,066 miles. No problem, we can tackle that, right?

The chat/walking thread is up now, so if you haven't already please sign-up here, but we can chat over there. We'll start logging our steps on Saturday, only 2 days to go....

What a great idea. I would love to join you all so sign me up!

I would love to join in, but do I have to use a pedometer? I was planning on just using the distance I cover on my exercise route....
Maybe I'll get a pedometer just for fun. Are the expensive?

OOPS I should have kept reading the thread....:^: Well, see you Sat!

This is great! Looks like we have at least 10 folks already! We're going to cover the distance at lightning speed!

Welcome, welcome

If you guys will let me, I'm definitely in. Is my running allowed too? I'm starting some of that at this point... Mostly walking still.

Welcome Dee! Of course everyone is welcome to join in!!! Glad to have you. And yes, running is great... will help us get across the country faster. :) I am about to start a bit of that too I think!!

I see you are from the Keys... I used to live in Fort Lauderdale :sunny:

Okay, I found ya! Thanks for the link...

I'm in too. I'll get a pedometer this weekend, as my elliptical doesn't calculate mileage, just steps. I'm nowhere near I-90, unfortunately, so no travel guide from me, but I'll be happy to add my miles!

Happy walking/running/stepping!

Hi lala and welcome! Glad you are in!! And you can use the step pedometer if you want; we are counting the average of 2000 steps in a mile!!! Wow we have 12 now from all areas of the country. Would be nice to have some International people here so they can tour the US :)
