5 Tips To Start the Spring100:

  1. GO IN THE STRENGTH OF THE LORD! Remember, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. “I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.” Ps 71:16
  2. Incorporate Scripture in your daily walks and the entirety of Spring100! Make this challenge more than just physical exercise, make it a season of spiritual refreshment and edification. The Spring100 Reading Plan is a great way to do this! “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.” 1 Timothy 4:8
  3. Keep track of your miles!! Whether it’s a special notebook dedicated to Spring100 or in your journal or the Spring100 calendar, PLEASE keep a personal log of your miles. YES, you will be submitting your miles to me weekly but having your own copy of miles walked will be a helpful way to “compare notes” if by chance I find you’re short of the required 100-mile goal by the end of Spring100!
  4. Wear good shoes when walking! πŸ˜‰
  5. Interact right here on the SP100 BLOG through comments + photos! This is a fun online community when we all join together, seeking to encourage each other as we move toward the 100-mile goal!
  6. BONUS!! πŸ˜… Have fun!!πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸŽ‰πŸ’―

πŸ’πŸΌβ€β™€οΈI’d love to hear helpful starting line tips from previous Spring100ers in the comment box below!

    SO excited! The most important tip…SEEK the Lord for strength to complete each mile!!! Second tip…DON’T fall behind! Just missing a mile here and there adds up and then before you know it you have only one week left and 50 miles you still need to complete.😱

    We are really excited about spring here in Kansas! I’m expecting twins in early summer, so this challenge will help me stay focused on the exercise needs of this pregnancy in a fun way with my family! My husband and three older children are excited to join me! This will be fun! Thank you for the encouraging Scriptures! We haven’t yet decided on a Scripture passage we’d like to work on during our walks!

    Wooohooo I’m so excited!! 😁🌞🌷🌸🌹🌼🌺🌻 It was warm today in Ohio which made my first 3.6 miles fun! (side note: I never stopped last year after the spring100 so I’ve been running in the cold/snowy/cloudy/windy winter. So the sunshine is really nice!) πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
    My biggest suggestion is to make it a habit and make it a priority. Also, go more than 1.1 miles every day (if you can). That way, when you have to skip a day, you won’t get behind. And if you are super motivated, make a goal, say 200 or 300 miles. πŸ˜±πŸ˜πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
    Welcome everyone! It’s gonna be amazing! 🌸
