Ding ding!
Walked 2 miles to dinner tonight, and another 1 to dessert. But my wife made us taxi back. +3 for a total of 50 Becker Points.
 
Going to knock out my last 5 with a hike with the kids today. Assuming it stops raining.
 
5 more miles today brings me to...

50 BP!!

Challenge complete! That last mile was brutal today. Probably didn't help that I also got in an hour and a half of lifting as well.

Walked 35 minutes for 1.63 miles = 1.63 points
Biked for 13.67 miles = 3 points

that brings me to a total of 51.63 points!! and 2 days early too..

Thanks again to Guyon, great motivation..



Here we are! :D

I think the above was my last post. I put my big boy paints on today and walked another three miles with the dog. That puts me at a total 59 Becker points today.

I would like to count three hours worth of shoveling snow this morning as 1 Becker Point making my total 60 BP.

I was shoveling the deck and then the driveway when I looked up and seen the 67 year old little lady across the street shoveling. I figured I better stop on mine and go help her with hers. It was about 40 yards long by three cars wide. She was stopping and breathing hard and in talking to her I found out she had a pacemaker. I could tell she felt like she needed to help. I told her I was having fun and I thought she needed to go in and get warmed up. I told her that I didn't mind finishing it for her.Next thing I know it is 3.5 hours later.

The old back is complaining but I still enjoyed doing it. Anyone have an issue with me adding 1 Becker point to my total?

Thanks.

That was a very kind thing to do bud, good on you!!

Its not my "challenge" but i definitely dont mind you adding one point, shoveling snow is harder than walking. And at 40 yards by 3 cars wide if you had one of those pace counters on you may of still walked a mile going up and down the driveway....Plus you already made the goal of over 50 so its no biggie.
 
Only 1.2 miles today. -25C with the wind chill, blowing snow - must've dumped half a foot today. Must have pissed off the workout gods something fierce to deserve this lol. Trying my hardest to finish this on time! Total Becker points: 40.31

Woohoo, weather finally broke! Got up to a balmy -6C today. Waaay easier time walking. Did a 2.91 mile walk last night. Finished two walks with the dog today, totaling 6.18 miles. Total Becker points: 49.4
 
2.5 mile hike with the kids. 49 BP to date.

3.1 mile run this morning (a 5K), which gets me to 52 BP (not counting any of the tenths or hundredths) and a successful challenge.
I'm going to close this one first thing in the morning.
 
Friday's totals....2 mile dog walk, and 1 mile jog...

TDD: 89 BP

Local bike club convinced me to get out and ride since the weather cleared up, in the low 50's, soooooooooooooooo,

dog walk, 1 mile, and bike ride 24 miles giving me a grand total of:

TTD: 102 BP
 
12-11: 1.5 mile walk, 1.5 BPs

Current Total: 53.5 BPs

I walked two miles on 12/14 for 2.0 BPs

Current near total: 55.5 BPs

I hope to put in 4.5 more miles tonight to bring my total to 60. I'll post before Guyon shuts down this thread tomorrow morning.

Actually got up just above freezing today. Rained last night tho, so all the sidewalks were like skating rinks. Once down to the park, the trails were fine. Got a good 3.83 miles today, for a total of 53.23 Becker Points. Finished!
