Running challenge for July
 
Hi

Does anyone want to joing me on a running challenge for July? :running:

I was thinking we could set a goal of cyber running from London to Brighton - a whole 87km for the month of July.

Who is in?

I will keep a weekly total of how far everyone has travelled that week?

Come on chicks!

We can walk to Brighton too, if running is a bit too much.......

:eek: I can't run so won't be joining you :D Haven't managed to run even after my 2 year old since i damaged my ankle last August. :dizzy:

I am most certainly up for that, Beckster.

I'll even convert my minutes to Km ;)

I'll start off on a treadmill then hit my road walking in about 2 weeks.

I promise not to cheat :moped:



With this and the Jumpin July we should nail our targets!

:carrot: plus :broc: plus :running: plus :tread: = :goodscale:

gonna do a running total (!) then add up at end of the week on a wednesday same day as my weigh in.....

so today.... 3.5 k

would have done more but my t shirt was weighing me down with the heat and sweat!!! not a good look....

went on bike for rest of the way

:^:

BlueIsis 07-01-2009 04:43 PM

Can I run to Brighton too? I'm on the wrong side of the pond, but I have a vivid imagination! :D

PS - I'll even convert my miles to kilometers, I promise.

shmoo 07-01-2009 09:41 PM

Beckster 07-02-2009 04:34 AM

Welcome Shmoo and Blueisis - have added you on to list above

Good luck

BlueIsis 07-02-2009 08:25 PM

Thanks for starting this Beckster. This is fun!

July 1 - didn't run
July 2 - 11 km (7 miles)

Beckster 07-03-2009 07:17 AM

Have updated totals so far......

cat90 07-03-2009 02:24 PM

:carrot: yeh, yeh, yeh. I've just downloaded couch potato to 5k and i've been trying to get the motivation to start and this is it!! :woohoo: I've never weighed so much in my life :o feel like I can't lift a finger never mind run :lol: but i'll try a brisk walk to start and see where I get ;)

BlueIsis 07-03-2009 04:00 PM

Okay...I did another 11km (7 miles) today. My legs feel dead. I'm increasing my mileage right now so I guess that's to be expected. Happy running! :running:

touchmytoes 07-04-2009 05:38 PM

11k running? omg!! as in tread mill or actual road running?
i can do about up to 3k on the tread mill before i lose the will to live!!
but its more than when i started when all i could do was half a k... so im getting better....
