We did it.
We pushed ourselves to our limits and beyond. We braved the cold, we ignored the pain, we cursed (or at least I did), and we did it.
The Marathon Week Challenge. Is. Over.

Everyone did a FANTASTIC job, but extra special kudos go out to the lovely Kate, Karyn, and Jessie, who completed the 26.2 miles with all sorts of awesome. I would also like to call out Craig, who whined said (jus’ kidding
) REPEATEDLY that he wasn’t ready for the challenge. Yeah, 20 miles isn’t anything to scoff at my friend, you TORE IT UP!
So once again, congratulations everyone! You’ve succeeded at a pretty lofty goal, and have given myself and countless others further motivation for our journeys.
Ya’ll ROCK!
There will be more challenges, that is pretty much a given. This was an awesome experience and I beamed with pride every morning I logged in and saw the total miles increase. I just don’t know what those challenges are yet, hehe.
In the meantime, if you are starting a challenge (and if you aren’t, you should! It’s awesome) lemme know and I’ll sign right up! Or if you have a challenge idea for me, feel free to hit me up.
Have an awesome day everyone. Nurse your sore legs, sit back and relax, and savor your victory.

Way to go everyone! 174 miles!!!
And Way to show us all up, Steve! J/k – 40 miles is awesome!
Thanks for the challenge!
Congrats to all that particpated, esp those that finished. I wanted so badly to do the full 26, but was hurting too bad last night (really!) 20 is a new record for me, by a long shot…so I’m still happy with that.
I want to retry this soon and do the damn thing entirely.
Steve…40…wow–just incredible! I can’t imagine how broken down I’d feel at that point!
Great job everyone!!
And yeah, 40 miles is totally awesome Steve!!
I am taking a much earned break today. Gonna veg out and be a couch potato and stare at the tube all night! Not even gonna glance in the direction of my treadmill. LOL
Hehehehehehehe…
Yesterdays cardio was on the ARC Trainer, which I hadn’t used in a week and missed dearly. I think I’ll catch up with it today too
The treadmill can wait a few more days.
