| | | Lake Okeechobee Scenic Trail, ~115 miles paved/unpaved, two years in a row. Tour de Felasco was ~50 miles of mostly off-road singletrack, three years in a row. Croom 50 for two years in a row, all off-road singletrack.
Next big ride is a completely self-supported over 150 mile ride call the Cross Florida individual Time Trial (CFiTT), but right now i'm scheduled to be at a wedding that weekend. |

| | | Very cool to read of these accomplishments. Keep it up everybody.
Averaging about 20 miles of running/week for the last 3 months. My long run is still only about 10K distance, but planning on a 1/2 marathon next season. 11 pound weight loss over that time. Another part of the accomplishment is that often my 2.5 year old daughter rides with in the stroller and I'll cool down at the end and have her run with me. I think it's cool that she's learning this habit.

| | | Walking the dog... Or is the dog walking me? 3 mile walks, daily. I take my 100 lbs American bulldog with me. The Good: when I get tired she can pull me along as encouragement. The Bad: at times it is a battle of wills to see who is walking who.
I hope to lose enough weight to get back to playing soccer again and snowboarding. |

| | | Compared to what everyone else is doing in this forum my exercise accomplishment for today (which happens to be the first day of my exercise routine) was a grand total of 8 minutes on the treadmill at 3.0mph. I know, I have a LOOOONG ways to go, but at least it's something. One step at a time. One day at a time.

That first day of a routine is the most important accomplishment and without it no other accomplishments come. A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step right? Keep it up.
