And if you want to move for a good cause you can sign up for Charity Miles. It is a free app that tracks your walking/running/biking and donates 10¢ per mile for bikers; 25¢ per mile for walkers and runners from corporate sponsors up to 1 million dollars. (I am not affiliated with this app, just wanted to share and see if we could help others while we Pile on the Miles! You have to download the app and track there to use it.)
Let me know if there are other similar programs like Charity Miles! (This is completely separate and optional from the POTM2013 challenge.)
Marine Corps Marathon Video
My Marine Corps Marathon recap is here
Yesterday I had a little fun with SkinnyRunner after we took a stroll in the park. But today I am busy busy with finishing work, running errands and packing for the New York City Marathon! More to come!!
Question: Do you want to take a walk in the park today?
Kayla says
I finally just watched your video and loved it! It reminded me of how much fun running MCM is! I love the handshakes at the end… it was touching to remember that part! Nice touch to add you end it with getting into the ice bath – funny!
Larissa @ Running with the Dragonflies says
Love the video. So inspirational and looks like such a great place to run a marathon 🙂
Livi says

Amy @ Long Drive Journey says

Sue says
All the best for NYCM! Will you be heading east with SR?
runeatrepeat says
We’re going separate 🙂
Liz @ Carpe Diem and Run says
I took a walk through some dark neighborhoods – does that count? 😉
Audrey says
I use Charity Miles on 99.99% of my runs, walks, and bike rides (that .01% is from the occasional forgetful moment), usually to support Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
Jodea @ chillichocolatelove says
I’d love to but I’ve been sick all week and know I need to listen to my body and rest. It sucks.
Susie M. says
Hello! I’m running a half on Saturday, and I’ve been playing around with planning my meals for the day before. Do you have any pre-race meals you would recommend? Thanks!
Susan says
No walk in the park here….maybe a swim. We are having heavy rain & winds today. They’ve even postponed trick or treating until tomorrow (Friday). Loved your MCM video; got me all emotional again!
Marcia says
Fun to watch that video and relive what may be my favorite race! Congrats!
Ashley says
I actually was planning on a quick walk in the park during lunch. It’s been cold and dark here in Denver this week, so I want to take advantage of the sunshine!

I’d have loved to have taken a stroll today!
I’m looking forward to the start of Pile on the Miles 2013 tomorrow, and to blogging about it too! 😀
Flower says
I don’t know what that music was playing in the video was but it was perfect and the video itself was inspiring. You did a really great job editing it and putting it all together. Well done and good luck at the NYCM!
Teggin Summers says
Hi Monica! My husband and I ran the MCM too. Thanks so much for making and sharing this video! I just sent the link to some family and friends so they might get a glimpse of what my husband and I experienced. Of course, we were about an hour behind you! 🙂
Ashley @ BrocBlog says
yes a walk in the park sounds nice
Taylor @ Single-tracked Mind says
Who doesn’t want to take a walk in the park? So excited to hear how NYC goes!
Aimee says

Jojo @ RunFastEatLots says
I’ve been taking walks in the morning after MCM, and it’s helped with recovering my legs. I want to run, already!
Veronica says
So cool to re-live that beautiful race. What a great day it was. I’ve been high on the feeling all week!
Jen @ brokentequila says
Today is the 2 1/2 year old’s day to do what she likes. She is an awesome little running/walking partner, but Thursday’s are her day. We play, maybe watch a movie. Since it’s raining here we are hitting up the indoor play ground at the local coffee shop!
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
I walked yesterday but the rain here will stop me from doing it today. I am off to the gym for a little bit of an elliptical session and swimming!
Tammy Jo says
I did sign up for the pile on the miles YIKES!!!! And I love the Charity Miles app!!!!
Michelle @ 3cheaprunners says
No walk in the park for me today…it is pouring rain here 🙁
