I have a spreadsheet to keep up with your mileage. Click here! Add your information and keep up with your weekly mileage on the sheet. Feel free to highlight your line to make it easy to find and edit it however you want. Visit the blogs of the others and encourage. This will be fun! :) The miles can be walking, running, biking, or elliptical. However you want to get them!
There will be prizes. Everyone who signs up by Tuesday morning at around 10 am when I can get to my computer at work will receive a prize. Everyone! There will most definitely be some random prize winners as well. I know I will have a bondi band up for grabs and some other fun prizes.
If you want to sign up, you can email me so that I have your email address to get your mailing address when the challenge is over, but please click the spreadsheet and add yourself.
Now, on to other things....
My friend Donny ran his first marathon yesterday. He was shooting for under 4:30 and he was perfectly capable of that, but it was a bad race and he finished around 5:40. I don't know any details, but I am sick for him! He put so much into that training! But, he finished. I told him that was the most important part.
One of my resolutions last year that I carried on to this year as well was to try new things. Caitlin blogged about veggie sushi the other day and when we went out last night I decided to give it a try. It was awesome. This is from someone that until two years ago HATED veggies. Now it's all I can think about. It was so so so good. So, do yourself a favor and branch out. You might surprise yourself.
And, finally, the LittleMan and I went to the gym yesterday. He had fun. We tried a bunch of different machines. Now he wants to go every Saturday with me. I'm so glad and he's so excited.
Hope the rest of your weekend is great!!!

Hey, Melissa! Happy New Year! Great Challenge idea. :-) I'm signing up with disclosure that my mileage has been waaay off for a few months, so we'll see how it goes. I'm emailing you next.
Did you finish out your PIF 500 Challenge miles? I posted recently about that, asking for everyone's info so I could do an end-of-challenge post. Let me know if you want to be included. I got very sidetracked the second half of '10, but tried to say onboard.
Congratulations to Donny! 26.2 is AMAZING...
Nice that you've gotten so many participants! This will be a fun one. :)
Signed up for your challenge! I'm expecting to come in at precisely 31.8. Should be fun!
I'm excited...of course there is an impending ice storm along w/ 3-6 inches predicted for my area...so I don't know when I will get to the gym this week. Hopefully I can just double up on the days I can get there.
I signed up!! Happy New Year!!!
What a great challenge! Let's get out there and crank up that odometer!
Great challenge Melissa. I found you via Robin at Turtle Runner. I am "ALL IN" for this challenge. WAR EAGLE!!

Hi Melissa,
I just signed up. I need all the motivation I can get to get out and run in the cold weather we are having. 13 miles so far so this should be an achievable goal. Thanks for coordinating!
