2011 Challenge

Ok, I've come up with a challenge...for myself, mainly, but you're welcome to join. I'm challenging myself to run 1100 km in 2011. That equals 683.5 miles, which is an aveage of 57 miles a month or 14 miles a week. I'm thinking I can do that, especially since I'm training for a 13.1 mile race.

I had originally said I wanted to run an average of 50 miles a month to equal 600 miles for the year, but I like the idea of 1100km in 2011...corny, I know.

I just signed up on dailymile.com. I'm not sure if I'll get the hang of using it regularly. You can hook up your Garmin to it as well, but I definitely haven't gotten that far with it. Right now, I'm only using my Garmin about once a week, if I'm lucky enough to get to run outside. So, for now, I'll just hand enter my info there to see if I like the tracking.

I already keep a log of my training. I like being able to see how much I've done, and I am hoping this dailymile thing will help me keep up.

So, back to the challenge...anyone want to join me?

  1. Do the miles have to be ran? I might be able to do it walking!
