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!

My first official run of the year!

Moonlight Run 2013 - another great night.  It was fun to have Brad and Amy and their kids running with us this year!  Elizabeth and Grandpa (who is not in the picture) also ran as ghost runners.  Fun Fun!

The kids did SO great!  I am so proud of them!  Joel didn't let me beat him on the hill.  I started to catch him - and OFF he went - didn't see him again until he was eating pizza!  What a fun family night!

I ran the 10K with 2 ladies from my 'run like a mother' group - It was a great night!  Definitely a challenge to run as a group amongst 2500 people - but so glad we did it!

My goal now is to keep this level of fitness and build upon it - hopefully just one more month of unpredictable weather - and then spring will be here!!

Can hardly wait!

So in our club this year (those of you who have posted miles) - we have
1 Rat
1 Sheep
1 Dog
1 Tiger
1 Snake
1 Horse
1 Ox
I don't know if that means anything. . . . but I do expect that everyone has something in their animal that will help them reach their goals this year!
