Run 2017 Challenge Update, 26 Weeks In

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!
