As much as I would love to do the Disneyland 1/2 Marathon, I can't do it without messing up my academic schedule and unfortunately the bling isn't quite worth that. So I would like to self propel to Disneyland by the race date of Sept 17th. It is 3074 miles. I am kind of cheating though in that I'm going to count swim and bike miles in addition to run/walk mileage. Since the marathon last Sunday, I've biked 24 miles and ran 3.4 so I'm starting at 27.4/3074.

Celeste - You are right! We are not to far apart - you are further north than I am but not by much.

Can I join too? and does biking count?

I calculated the distance to Port Orleans as we will be staying there at the end of the month....

122.08 miles from my door to theirs....

I did 10 miles on the bike today so I am at 10/122.08. I think I would need to do 11 miles per day in order to make this by 1/27/06!!


Thanks for starting this thread and let's get walking ya'll!

Walk, jog/run, bike, swim, whatever you are comfortable with and enjoy to do. I think I have a conversion chart for non-walking activity to calculate steps, will have to remember to look for it.

Cool - thanks so much! I am usually on the treadmill or elliptical machine but I got to the gym at lunch time and pretty much everything was full!


Hope everyone had a GREAT day today and closer to WDW!! Here's looking to a great Tuesday!

 

[lillygator]

anyone walk yet this morning? I will be hitting the treadmill on my lunch hour!! Hope to go far!!

I track my steps throughout the day - until it gets warm enough to move outside. Today we're expecting freezing rain.


I found the Aerobic Miles chart from the Capital Blue Cross Walking Works program.

The following activities (at moderate pace) = 1 aerobic mile
Walking (at any pace) for 20 minutes
Jogging (at any pace) for 10 minutes
Bicycling for 12 minutes
Swimming for 16 minutes
Aerobic Exercise to music for 15 minutes

Minutes to Steps chart. Convert time to steps, multiply minutes X steps to calculate miles.
Walking = 133 steps/minute
Jogging = 156 steps/minute
Bicycling = 178 steps/minute
Swimming (leisurely) = 133 steps/minute
Aerobic Exercise = 133 steps/minute
Cleaning house = 78 steps/minute

There are other activities on the lists. If you want to know the rate for something, ask and I'll see if it's noted.

As it turns out, I signed up late for the last one and never got started, so I still have the clippie in my signature. So, 1635 miles from my house to Old Key West.

I can't wait to get started! But... I'm not going out around the block tonight. Too tired!

Thanks for starting this up!
