it began as an egg

i have an idea - a 2011 idea! on cr there are a few people committing to running - 3650kms in 365 days - im gonna join in - obviously it averages 10kms a day, which may not seem much but i would not have run anywhere near that this year, even with long runs and ultras added in! so, a regular contribution, a 'consistency' to my running, with longer runs boosting the total now and again!
anyways - to you! my 2011 idea :D you are gonna set a goal! YES - YOU!
like (an eg only) - to walk 1000kms for the year! ? - that would be less than 3kms a day, as time goes by that would get easier and easier and would change though - what do you think!
BUT. you were the one brought up from couch to 5k with me (THAT will teach you to enquire with me about anything re fitness, exercise and weight loss! :P ) so maybe im making you my 2011 project? :D
are you ready for a challenge?! with the kids, easy to incorporate that into your life!
later gater!

I drove 50,000km last year in the car....do I get any credit for that? LOL
I'm in for a challenge, though it is something I must do ;)
I like the idea, though some pushing and prodding will be needed, as I'm sure you know.
