30 min run this morning to try out my new toy.

I got a nike+ sportwatch and now I can have up to the minuite pace and distance. I don't have to go home and get out the calculator anymore.

Had two good runs the last two days.

43 minutes yesterday (4 miles)
73 minutes tonight (6 miles)

Total time now at 1330/1600

I've got one more run tomorrow night - I'll finish up right before midnight, but that won't be more than about 60 minutes, so I'm going to call a couple hundred short this month, but you can't win 'em all.

Everyone's progress is updated in the first post.

It's that time of the month again... is there anyone who wants to step up and host September, or should I go ahead and start the new thread?

First I must say a big thank you to Ted for hosting this month it is much appreciated. I know it has to be a lot of work.

I just got back from a 3.64 mile fun run was supposed to be 5K but I kind of took a wrong turn that added a bit to the course. 58 min so a 15:57 pace. Not to bad as it was a hilly course. I will have to use this course map for some of my training.

I really should learn a little bit more about the city I live in, but don't work in, then maybe I wouldn't get lost so much.

Ted, thank you so much for hosting this month! This challenge has really helped me stay on track with my goals!

If you want a break from hosting, I'd be happy to try and do it for September, just let me know. As long as people don't mind that I will usually update pretty late at night

I did 75 minutes on the elliptical tonight, which brings me to:

1763/1700 WHOO HOO!!

Will definitely get in another workout tomorrow evening! Really happy with my progress this month!

Thanks and have a good night!

My gym cancels all classes 3 times a year for a week (or 8 days in this case) so it was the same workout as yesterday I really need variety and am going stir crazy! An hour on the treadmill, and an hour on the elliptical bring me to:

Got back from Florida very late last Friday. With School starting next week I have been trying to finish some things around here.

During my trip to Fl the lowest amount of steps was 20000 and the most was 26000. I am so glad that I made my goal for this month. I hope I can do it again next month.

Spent the day at the State Fair but will only count 2 hrs of walking.

Really enjoyed watching the K9 dogs and the airdogs jumping into the water.
