I want to share with and challenge you to run this year… in 2014. I participated loosely last year, challenging myself to run further than I have in years past. I didn’t run 2013 miles in 2013. Instead, I actually ran around 850 miles this past year. I am challenging myself to run further in 2014. I may not run the year in miles… but I am setting a goal for myself of 1000 miles run in 2014!
I am joining Team Run This Year 2014 and am in charge of finding and working with the amazing sponsors for the amazing giveaways throughout the year! Get excited! Big things are happening in 2014!

This is one fitness goal to challenge myself with. To CHANGE and get uncomfortable. I am going to challenge myself to run this year by running 1000 miles in 2014.

Challenge yourself to MOVE more, WALK more… RUN more miles this year. You can do it. Get uncomfortable. Change what is normal. Run this year!

That sounds like a great challenge! I started running regularly back in March. This might be the motivation I need to keep going and train to run more miles at once. Have a safe and Happy New Year!

Great goal and neat group! I’ve joined a FB group that is challenging/supporting each other in running 2014 km in 2014. I’ll look into this group too – I need all the help I can get!

Awesome! You can totally cover the miles… esp with your BQ training! 🙂
