Ok, for the past two months I have been very UN motivated, Going to break that cycle NOW! Got five miles in today.

I did ok the last 2 months. Did not hit my 100 mile mark but did some good mileage. This month between working 4 days a week at my normal job and 3 days a week refitting a crab boat I likely wont get many miles in. The boat is also killing my Morel season. And its soooo good so far!

I'm in!

Good start to the month. Only 94 miles more miles to go!

I haven't met 100 yet, but I really wanna be in shape for grouse season. Like to hike in a bit and those steep hillsides can be a killer.

Crabs... Morels... Crabs... Morels... Crabs... Morels... hmmmm. Both!

5 more miles today, yea baby!!!

Heartsblood · « **Reply #6 on:** June 03, 2011, 02:58:30 PM »

Nice!
Yeah I got out today too. It's weird - the first friday in a while I haven't been turkey hunting... so I walked the slough as usual. Pretty neat - I watched a golden eye put on an act of being stupid and injured for about a half hour while two bald eagles watched and even tried a coupla dives at him. No chance! Plop. Under water. I know there must have been a hen and cjicks nearby up in the blackberry bushes or somethin'. I think I've only seen Mallard chicks...ever.

82 miles to go!

yeah i got 25 miles in also, and it was the worst dream i ever had, i am the guy that always says i am gonna get in shape next season the best part is its never next season

seriously i wish i could get motivated, i was an 11-b (light) and thats all we ever did was run, do pushups, situps or do a road march with 60 to 80 pounds on are backs ending the month with a timed 25 miler. since i have gotton out my motivation to stay in shape is zilch..

Got another six in on the slough. Only 59 miles to go.

Holy crap! I just saw 3 blacktail bucks! Velvet, 6-8 inches bulbous on the ends. They walked 30 yards from me, starting at 250. You don't understand! This is Woodinville. On next to the heavily populated bike path. And, actually less than a quarter mile from an apartment I used to rent. Serioulsy - I've been walking/jogging this path for 10 years. I've never seen deer, let alone 3 bucks. I am seriously blow away.

Most amazing thing I've ever seen on the slough. Ever.

5 more miles today.

how are you guys tracking your movment? I used to wear a pedometer at work, and was logging 7 miles a day

Heartsblood · « **Reply #19 on:** June 08, 2011, 06:31:24 PM »

The Sammamish river trail where I usually walk has markers. So after years of walking there, I know that 1 hr equals roughly 4 miles.

Heartsblood · « **Reply #20 on:** June 09, 2011, 01:28:49 PM »

Another six today. Only 53 miles to go.

"Mark it dude..."

Machias · « **Reply #21 on:** June 10, 2011, 02:09:14 PM »

5 more today, had a shin muscle that would not stop trying to cramp, went all the way up into my hip. Actually a fairly painful walk today.

I have about 5 routes that I've already measured with the vehicle.

I'm biking about 10 miles, walking about 2.5, and doing weights. Lost 11 lbs in the last 10 days on the way to 40. I WILL be tip top for elk season this year. I may be old, but I'm feeble, too!

Machias · « **Reply #24 on:** June 10, 2011, 02:36:28 PM »

Nice job!
