Well, we made it through our first year - it has been interesting - we had a lot of people participate, and 10 of those reached the 1200 mile mark! Congratulation to all who participated. I hope you found the challenge rewarding to you.

We are going to do it again in 2013. Starting on January 1st and ending on December 31 - the challenge is to complete 1200 miles running, jogging, and/or walking. Because I have been a little slow on getting started this year - I may actually go from Chinese New year to Chinese New Year - if you would like. If you have been keeping track of your miles in January and February - submit them - you are all the closer to reaching the 1200 mile goal!

This can be done in the snow, rain, sun, wind, or on the treadmill, eliptical, or if you are really lucky maybe you will get some miles in on a beach somewhere!?

To complete the challenge, you would need to log 3.86 miles per day x 6 days a week. You can do it!

If you complete the challenge, there will be a SUPER COOL shirt that you can purchase, designed by our very own Cardston Kids Marathon Designer - - - OHHH and bragging rights too!

To sign up, send me a note on the facebook page, leave a comment here on this blog, or just enter your miles in the log at the bottom of the blog.

At the end of each month, you will need to send me your completed miles and I will post them here on this blog. (Tip: you should be at 100 miles every month!) Let's get at it!! This is going to be FUN!

Powerful Beyond Measure

"This is hard work - but I feel so GOOD!"  I have been hearing so many people tell me their stories of how they are getting their miles in - and you all are inspiring me and keeping me going!  Thank you!


I was debating the other day if I would post the completed miles on the blog . . . or not . . . . and a friend reminded me about this quote that I LOVE. . . . 



Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. 


Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. 

It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be 
brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? 

Actually, who are you NOT to be?

You are a child of God. 

Your playing small does not serve the world. 



There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel unsure around you.


We were born to make manifest 
the glory of God
that is within us. 

It is not just in some of us; 
it is in everyone.

As we let our own Light shine, 
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. 

As we are liberated from our own fear, 
our presence automatically liberates others.

erroneously credited to Nelson Mandela



I know that there are people that signed up for the 1200mile club that did not plan to reach the 1200 mile goal - but they signed up with their own goal, and that is AWESOME!  I don't want you to feel frustrated or disappointed, but pleased with what you DO accomplish - remember every mile counts and it is your job to just keep counting!  

So as soon as you are ready, submit your miles in the log at the bottom of this blog. (Go check it out .. . . did you go look?  Scroll all the way down the page. . . .   GO!)  Thank you . . Now don't you feel better?  Now we can continue to motivate each other and celebrate our success!  Yahoo!  Look at You!!  Fantastic!!

We would love to hear of your experiences trying to get your miles in this month - help inspire each other by sharing a comment on this blog.
