I am doing the Amerithon Challenge, a virtual challenge to cross the USA in 1 year. I can walk, run, swim, rollerblade, bike, elliptical, hike, snowshoe, ski or crawl the 3521 miles. Here is the fantastic medal. The finishers charm is to be received after I've completed the challenge. There is a map of the virtual route and milestone badges I will be earning. Proceeds go to Team Red, White, and Blue. The challenge started this past Monday, July 4. I am just past the San Francisco Bay Bridge.
I won't be increasing my running, but will start adding and tallying walking. I was going to mow the entire yard and check the mileage on my GPS today, but only got the front yard done as it was 90 degrees and much too hot. My front yard is small....only 0.2 miles accomplished from that.
If I can't keep up with the mileage by running and walking, I may add biking to the mix.
Wish me luck on my virtual journey.
(PS mowing the entire yard, only 0.6 miles, sure seems like longer).
