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!

2013 - Year of the Snake

2013 is the year of the Snake.  

When you log your miles this month, I have asked what year you were born in - here is a quick reference....







































Here is a little about yourself, if you are curious about that stuff. . . . .

Does yours describe you accurately, a little, not at all?

two thousand thirteen = two zero one three = 2013

2013
two thousand thirteen
two zero one three

However you want to see it - - - it is here!  Funny thing is it is actually Chinese New Year - so if you want to think about it that way - I'm not even behind!

We have had some new ideas thrown around for a new challenge this year.

1 mile a day, every day, creating a STREAK

2013 km in the year 2013

count all miles of exercise (swim, bike, run)

Most of you know that I am ALWAYS up for a challenge!  Surprise!!
I would kind of like to do ALL 3 of the challenges.  (not really a surprise I know)

But, I think I am going to go against my inner desire to DO IT ALL -
and keep the challenge the same as last year ........
my designer will be happy about that too, as we can keep the logo the same, or almost the same.

So the official 2013 - 1200 mile club challenge is . . . . . wait for it . . . . .

1200 miles of running, walking, or hiking!

FYI - if you choose to do the 2013 miles,  thanks to dashboard . . . . .

2013km = 1250.82miles - not too much of a stretch . . .

Good luck this year - in the Chinese Year of the Snake!

PS - the 2012 logo is coming - hopefully tomorrow....
