Last week marked the halfway point for the Run 2017 Challenge I took on in January so I figured I might as well post an update.
The challenge is to run or walk 2017 miles in the year 2017. That breaks down to 5.54 miles per day. I was originally splitting it with my friend which meant we only had to do 2.77 miles per day each, but her FitBit got wonky and I guess she stopped tracking her steps. So I decided to continue on and see how I could do.
While I wish that I was running more, I'm glad I'm doing so well with the walking. And I will go out of my way to walk at night if I am not hitting my goal for the day. At 26 weeks, I needed to be at 1008.28 miles for the year, and I am happy to say that I am at 1024.36 miles so far!! That's 16.08 miles OVER where I need to be!!
Now that summer is here and my schedule has cleared up a bit (haha, yeah right!) I am hoping I can make more of these miles running instead of just walking. Either way this challenge is definitely keeping me moving and I'm happy about that!
