The deal is simple:
  1. Set your goals for miles or kilometers to run/walk/hike/row/swim/unicycle for the month of March.
  2. Meet those goals.
  3. Brag about meeting those goals.

My goal is to row a total of 106.6 mad miles in March:
  • March 7 Goal = 25.2 miles
  • March 14 Goal = 50.4 miles
  • March 21 Goal = 75.6 miles
  • March 28 Goal = 100.9 miles
  • March 31 Goal = 106.6 miles
 
Since I have chosen to use my stationary bike, I will take up the riding challenge.

My Goals are set below, I will come back weekly to give a progress either :hurray: means I made it or :angelsad2: means I didn't.

March 7: 30
March 14: 60
March 21: 90
March 28: 120
March 31: 132

Total miles for the month:
 
I only run about twice a week, but also hoping to do some hiking so I'll join but my miles won't be terribly high.
I think I'm going to go with 8 a week. I think I should likely do more than that but as I do other workouts that don't involve going really anywhere that I can't stop, I'm just gonna try for that goal.

March 8: 8 *Actual 17.75*
March 15: 16 *Actual 26.28*
March 22: 24 *Actual 40.88*
March 29: 32
March 31: 40

Wishing I'd set a slightly lower goal, I missed a couple days of rowing before I made this thing, and I have some catching up to do...
 
Little late to the party, curious to see where you guys are at as the first deadlines approach.

March 13 - 7
March 20 - 14
March 31 - 11
--------------
Trying for - 32

I know it's very weak compared to the rest of you. But at least it's another activity and goal to follow up on.

Good luck!

short by 3.4 miles. Will see if I can make it up next week
 
Oops. I totally forgot that the difference between the last 2 dates is only a couple days, not a week like the rest. Will leave my goal as it is though and see if I can push it a bit to make all the miles.

Well, that should help my along.
 
:cry: fell down yesterday while house cleaning, hit my knee on the way down. the swelling has subsided a bit but it is still warm to touch. I don't think I will make my quota this week as I don't want to aggravate the knee anymore and end up in the emergency room.

So good luck everyone. I hope you all meet your quotas this week. I am giving my knee a rest for about 3 more days, or at least until its cool to the touch and not as painful..

I forgot about the walk to and from yoga. Added 3/4 miles for that.
 
A bit late to the party, but a great idea!

My goal is to run a total of 55 miles in March:

March 07 Goal = 13.3 miles (That's actual not a goal)
March 14 Goal = 25 miles 29.05 goal +4.05 miles thanks to my first 10K (6.2 miles)
March 21 Goal = 38 miles
March 28 Goal = 51 miles
March 31 Goal = 55 miles

Updated total: 3/14/2015 29.05 miles

Staying ahead of the curve which is good because I won't likely get in any running between the 27th and the 31st as I will be at the horse show. I will be doing LOTS of walking, but just here and there at the show, nothing dedicated or really measurable.
 
Good job folks! I'm pretty happy with my own progress --

• March 7 Goal = 25.2 miles Actual 25.5 miles. 0.3 mi over
• March 14 Goal = 50.4 miles Actual 51.6 miles. 1.2 mi over
• March 21 Goal = 75.6 miles
• March 28 Goal = 100.9 miles
• March 31 Goal = 106.6 miles
 
I don't think I'm going to meet my target this week, but I'm hoping to keep a head of steam to make up for it the following week.

Whoops, made my goal already haha.

As predicted, I missed last week, but I have a recovery plan to make it up this week, fairly easily, too, I think.

Crikey, another missed week! I didn't row yesterday, I'll row today, though (basically swapping rest days), and I'll meet the goal for the month.

Did it! April's will be a little tougher - gonna have to stay on top of rowing all month, and probably through in a few spare miles here and there when I can.
