Butterthebean 8,146 Posted September 24, 2013 I was going to ride today and the carrier had a flat tire so by the time it was fixed' date=' it started to get dark. I did do two rides in yesterday and am up to 82.8. However the big news is I GOT VERBAL APPROVAL TODAY FROM THE INSURANCE CO. Now all I need is the written letter, then figure out when is the best time to leave work for a while. Butter and Laura, I told you both that when I got approved, I would be shouting it in the forum and everyone would know. I will get my miles in the before the month end and hope to pass 100.[/quote'] Congratulations. That's great news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zenandnow 514 Posted September 24, 2013 I did a lot of walking today...3.14 miles. I just finished riding the recumbent bike 4.45 miles which put me at 7.59 miles today and a total of....101 miles!! I can't believe I did it and with days to spare!!! My wife took a pic right after I broke 100 miles...lol! I just need to figure out how to post it. Come on everyone...we are in the home stretch!! If I can do it' date=' you can do it. Before my surgery last month, if you told me I would do this I would have laughed at you. Now, exactly 5 weeks to the day post op, I have finished the 100 mile challenge and don't plan on stopping!! Thanks for the motivation everyone![/quote'] Ok, that pushed me over the edge; I've been lurking and thinking "I'm not up to this yet" but if you did it 5 weeks post op, I can't really come up with a valid excuse at 4 months!! I'll be joining the October challenge (Yikes!!) 5 lsu2868, gamergirl, Fiddleman and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I told you my "life verse" from the Bible is "bodily exercise profitteth little!"

No game 14,437 Posted September 24, 2013 Alright the human slug is checking in... I spent my morning exercising! Knocked out 5 on the bike and 5 on the treadmill! Total 78 3 Butterthebean, lsu2868 and tparkerc59 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M2G 1,836 Posted September 24, 2013 Okay, *just* added up everything and I did it!!!! Today's total is: (drumroll) 104.87 miles Woo hoo! They are mostly from spin class but some are from running and some are from walking (oh and I did add in some from just an exercise bike when I was waiting for my fusion class to start, I killed 10 mins on the exercise bike right outside the door, figured I could stand around and "chat" or I could move my legs. ) Definitely a good feeling of accomplishment. I'm going to still keep track and see where I end up by the end of Sept. Thanks all for the support and thanks Butter for getting us started and keeping us encouraged. 6 NewSetOfCurves, No game, Butterthebean and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted September 24, 2013 Nice job everyone. I'm so proud of all of y'all. Thanks to everybody that jumped on board and is giving it a go. You're all winners. Everyone is doing great and the miles are adding up fast. Day 26 for me....4.9 miles. 117.5 total. 5 more days for me...likely one of those will be a rest day so....I'm winding down. Someone else will have to start a new thread next month as I doubt I'll be able to. But hopefully by November I'll be able to put up some walking miles. 2 lsu2868 and tparkerc59 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
