MiniMi 1,468 Posted December 31, 2012 The cold can make us want to stay in bed. WE ALL KNOW, we need to keep moving. What better way than a movement challenge. I am starting a January challenge to walk/run 100 miles in January (60k) Log in your miles each Saturday of January. For those of you wondering, that means TOMORROW it starts.. Who can hear the Rocky theme song in their ears right now? If not, what song will be your January motivation? Jump in all! 5 dee257, ♕ajtexas♕, ☠carolinagirl☠ and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cheryl2586 3,053 Posted January 1, 2013 I'm in will use my walk away the pounds tape the two mile one and I have the five mile one too. It's a great work out and a good walk and energizing to say the least. I feel so good after I do it and sweat like hell. 6 DesertRose80, dee257, TeeMarie and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MiniMi 1,468 Posted January 1, 2013 The miles are meant for walking, jogging, running, hopping, skipping anything you can do on your own. However, if you cannot and must ride then have at it! just please post what method you used if other than only your legs. 2 ♕ajtexas♕ and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nitecap0046 32 Posted January 1, 2013 Wow, what a great idea. Guess I need to get out of bed and start before work today. This will get me back on the treadmill. Thank you for the idea and the help. Wishing you all a healthy, happy New Year. We need to walk about 3.5 miles a day. I plan to bulk up on my miles on the weekends when the demands of life are less. 3 dee257, MiniMi and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gldngrrl 70 Posted January 1, 2013 Wow! 100 miles ! I'll admit I don't think I can hit that this time of year . Last time I did, it was 110 miles run/hike/walk in July . It's easier for me in the summer, I teach and am off work then. Now I am lucky to get about 12-13 miles/week in on runs and since it's snowshoe season, we end up doing half the distance (of what we.usually hike weekly) yet work just as hard. But I am inspired to work on some my kind of distance goal! I'll have to look at my winter average last year and try to beat my highest. 3 MiniMi, ☠carolinagirl☠ and dee257 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
