Walking to Disney Challenge

[schatz5k]

Hi All,

I started walking today to VWL. I logged 2.5 this morning. Too many to count till I get there. Hopefully, by the time I log all 1052 of them, I'll be thin, thin, thin.

Holy Cow I just logged another 20 miles. 5 Miles Wed. 5 Miles Friday and 10 miles on Sunday. I am almost at the gates of Disney. And I still have 16 weeks to train for my 3-day walk. So I will probably log enough miles to walk home from WDW also. And maybe back again.

Hi Ladies,

Well I was only able to add 1.6 miles to my walk. My 10 month old daughter decided that she wanted to bond this morning at 3:45am. I got her back into bed at 4:45am, and was in no way ready to walk. I just got back from the park with kids where I did walk 1.6 miles. It is so hot and muggy here, I was trying to walk more but the kids were getting really hot.

Tomorrow is another day, hopefully I will get out and add another 3 miles.

Have a great day ladies.

Tracy

Good morning all,

Well, I made it to the PA turnpike NE extension. Today I got in a 3.1 mile walk. My total is 6.2 so far. As I was walking the sky opened up and we got drenched. It was fun though. I kept thinking I must be working a litter harder since I was carrying more weight me me

Have a great day everyone.

WOW this is an awesome idea! Now that I am a SAHM i have to start taking better care of myself. I have decided to walk to the WL my fav resort. I have to walk 1326 miles
OUCH! I think I will get started today.

 

[Mom2Ashli]

4 more miles for me. This rain we are having is really putting a damper on my walking.

Alrighty! School's out and all those endofyear interruptions from RL are over. Time to get crackin' I've tallied up the past three weeks (not good) and edited the siggie. I am in Michigan on I-75 at mile marker 34.5. I'd like to be out of Michigan and into Ohio by the 15th of July. Can I do it? We shall see. I've not been good at challenging myself (not counting the WDW ½ Marathon!) for over a year now, so it will be hard. I think I can, I think I can....

It's 3,083 miles from my house to Beach Club Villas. I'm planning to go in November and don't think there's much chance of me walking it by then - but it'll be fun to see how far I get.

I'm going to order a trip-tik from AAA and track my miles on it. I plan to use a pedometer and will keep track of all the miles I walk - I need every mile I can get!

Great idea! I read the thread from the beginning tonight. It was great to see the progress you are all making. And I like the idea of paying yourself for each mile too. If I do that I'll have qite a little stash of pocket change when I finally arrive!

See you on the road...Barrie

Weigh to Go! Keep up the good work, and you'll be there before you know it!

Count me in, please!!!

This is my very first post under this name - our other screen name goes to DH's email and I wanted one of my own. So I thought that this is a fantastic thread for my very first post of my own name!

Hmmmm...I'm walking from Wisconsin to VWL...1477 miles. No way I can do it before our next trip (September) but maybe by next July...? Currently I stand at 1474.

I am so excited about this whole WISH area - I need the community help

Hope to see you all on my way to WDW!!!

I am at 491.96/1,047.3 with 555.34 remaining.

I love that I am able to be outdoors! This is the best season. I have a new toy to play with as I am walking to help me measure my outdoor path. I am using the Garmin Forerunner 201. I won't be enjoying my trekking at all once the Winter forces me indoors.

I think I will be needing new shoes soon.

It is such fun to see all of us making our way.

Hi everyone, can someone help me. I live in Hatboro, Pa and want to join this walk. I am headed for the Grand Floridian for my Disney Fairy Tale Wedding this December so that is where I wanna to. Can someone help me calculate that in miles?

Thanks everyone!

Have A Disney Day!

I have been wanting to join this challenge for months but I was preg. when it started and have just now been able to get back into the habit of working out. (DD is 2 months old now!) So, I started Mon. I am walking to ASMo since that is where we stayed on our last vacation. I have to walk 722.32 miles to get there which isn't nearly as far as some of you have to walk! So far I have walked 3 miles since Monday and hope to walk more today. Maybe I'll be there by the time my next vacation rolls around in the beginning of May...although I seriously doubt it! LOL!
