alcn1derlnd 146 Posted September 9, 2017 I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a fitness challenge to complete 100 miles in 100 days. I've done one in the past and it helps keep you accountable for exercising. The one that I did in the past used twenty minutes of any exercise equaled a mile or actual walking or running distance. Though anyone interested could start on Monday Sept 11th which would go through to Dec 20th. Maybe post weekly totals and I will come up with a spreadsheet.

Apple1 2,572 Posted September 10, 2017 This sounds like fun. I start training for a half marathon on Monday. I would love to participate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblicious 130 Posted September 10, 2017 I would love to do this too. I am just starting out on my exercise as I have been so overweight it has been very difficult. But something like this is a perfect way for me to get moving and so count me in 1 Keshasjourney reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swimbikerun 1,046 Posted September 10, 2017 This is great! I can't walk but swimming it would be a good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple1 2,572 Posted September 10, 2017 So should we report our weekly totals on say, Saturdays? 1 Marblicious reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted September 10, 2017 If it starts on Monday, then we should report on Sunday or Monday. The other option is Friday since @dashofpixiedustdoes a weigh-in challenge on Fridays. 2 Apple1 and Fanese5330 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DisneyMom2El 120 Posted September 10, 2017 Count me in! I've been slacking on exercise for the past couple of weeks now that sports teams have taken over the football field where I've been running. I have a backup, a workout room at work, but the change in routine has not gone as smoothly as I thought it would. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alcn1derlnd 146 Posted September 10, 2017 Sunday reporting works for me. I tend to swim laps. I haven't decided to use the twenty minutes a mile or my actual mileage. It takes an hour and fifteen minutes for me to swim a mile and a half. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 219.8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swimbikerun 1,046 Posted September 10, 2017 Maybe we can have something for the swimmers? I can swim a mile but yes it is going to take less than an hour. I can 13-14 laps in 20 min, depending on what you want me to swim. I would have a problem starting it because I have a meet next Saturday so no mile every day for me right now. I'm doing more sprint stuff, will back to normal mid distance after that. I also would have an issue with a few things because I swim competitively and do meets. 4 hours ago, alcn1derlnd said: Sunday reporting works for me. I tend to swim laps.

Apple1 2,572 Posted September 10, 2017 I would think 20 minutes of swimming would just count as 1 mile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Newme17 3,444 Posted September 10, 2017 I normally don't do these things, but I need this one. I'll join the challenge. 😊 2 pfisher and Apple1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
