July Mileage Challenge...Who Is In?

I know it has been a long time since I have written a post, but that doesn't mean I have not had things going on.  I was busy ending a school year.  When that ended, I packed my bags and headed to D.C. for Pancreatic Cancer Action Network's Advocacy Day.  After that we had our PurpleStride event downtown and raised over $100,000 dollars for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.  Then I headed to Nashville for a trip.  

I have been thinking about posting, I promise.  I even have some lined up to be published soon.  This one is just a little more time sensitive so is taking priority at this point.  

I have been trying to eat cleaner.  I have really stepped this up over the summer.  The problem?  I have been struggling when I go out to eat or while I was out of town.  I am still trying to work through this.  

I saw this and it has been with me ever since:


All of my life I have been using food as an anxiety drug.  Instead of turning to food to deal with problems I should be turning to the Lord and using things like exercise to help me out.  

I have been working out, but I am ready to step it up and take things to the next level.  I want to do something to re-energize my running, and I am inviting YOU to participate with me.  Are you interested?  I am doing this July challenge:


I am going to complete 75 miles in 31 days.  That averages out to 2.42 miles a day during the month of July.  I am ready to do this.  How about you?  If you are interested, send me a message or comment on the blog so that we can be accountable and encourage one another.  It will be so much more fun with others doing it with me.  It doesn't matter how you complete the miles...you can crawl, walk, jog, run...just complete them!  I am starting this July 1st....who is with me?
