for those who are interested in tracking your walking/running/etc on mapmyrun.com I created a group on the site here.

I WILL (or anyone else can) post a daily thread for accountability.

Challenge starts tomorrow and will have a thread on the RNY board.  :)

ughhh - I have a crazy couple of days and wasn't sure if I'm going to get my walk in - forgot (well not really!) about this challenge - so thanks for posting - cause I'm one of those people who is motivated by this type of thing - and I'm going to make a better effort to make sure I put ME first for at least an hour over the next couple of hours - regardless of my other responsabilites !!!! So .....

Good luck everyone - Sue what was our goal again ??

The goal is to walk 26.2 miles in July.  this should be pretty attainable for a lot of us - couple of Saturdays at the canal and your halfway there!!

Something tells me you will be running around like a mad woman on Sunday - bet if you put on one of your devices you'll see you've gone 5 or 6 miles EASY.

Yup I feel like a big slug - belly full of watermelon and not a stitch of exercise today.   I'll try to do better tomorrow.
