Yesterday was a tough run. It was hot and humid - just all around miserable. But ... I did it. Day 9. I'm typing this as I'm getting ready to embark on my last 10 miles of this challenge. Thanks to everyone who has cheered me on!

I haven't been on lately but DH and I have ripped out ALL of out landscaping in the front AND back of our house the last 3 days! We have gone almost all day shoveling 3 trailer full of river rock. Although we were out all day, there is idle time and I'm sure I am not counting alot so I will say 150min yesterday 120 fri and prep thurs for 30. My arms are so sore typing this but very worth it in more ways than one.

Don't know if I will hit my goal, but I haven't done this much activity for a long while. Thanks for the motivation!

Thanks, Linda, for keeping track of us!

ebradley, good luck on your final run today and kudos to you for sticking with a very tough challenge!

lilkimmyk, landscaping is tough work but how nice to have something beautiful to show for your efforts.

Kudos to everyone for sticking with their activity regimen even in the dog days of summer!

1093 minutes and 100 miles of running in 10 days - I am done!! As I was rounding mile 9 in the pouring rain, I couldn't wipe the grin of my face if I tried. When I decided to do this, it was never a question of if I would finish. It was how I would finish. I wasn't so sure I could do all 100 miles without walking. I had never even tried running before April 24, 2013. I am amazed at how much I have accomplished in a little over a year. From barely being able to run 60 seconds when I first started running to this accomplishment. Unbelievable.

67 minute family walk on Sunday morning, then 53 minute run this morning

Congrats!

That is AMAZING! Like running pretty much 10 half-marathons IN A ROW! And to be able to do something like that in about a year is mind blowing. What an accomplishment!

Yesterday was pretty much a recovery day. I walked around for about 30 minutes to keep my muscles loose, but not much else. Unless my 90 minute massage counts

 

[glss1/2fll]

I've gone to the Y for stretching class and had a walk, now a girlfriend has invited me to swim laps. Think I will make it this month!

Keep up the good work, everybody! If you can't make your goal how about a color change goal?! If I'd have known yesterday how close I was I would have gone a few more minutes!

I think my goal for the next 3 days is to hit 1440 for the month. I find it just amazing that a full 24hr period, one whole day (!) of the month was dedicated to exercise. For some reason that number just seems meaningful to me...

ebradley - what an inspiration you are! When I read your challenge, I made a little wish/prayer that you'd get thru without injury cuz that's a LOT of running, so congrats on your accomplishment

lilkimmyk - way to go on the landscaping! Tell us more - what are you doing? Xeriscaping? Adding a water feature?
