High Five Friday

Welcome New Tall Mom Bloggy Pack Members!! The Pack has grown to 693!! WHAT?!?!?!? Wow that is CRAZY!! Now do we think we can get to 700 by the end of today?? Come on lurkers and friendly clickers, hit FOLLOW on the right sidebar, you know you want to :)

It is OCTOBER!! Where did September go? This means all of you in the 1,000+++ club have 91 days to get to 1,000. Are you on Track?? I am happy to report that I passed mile 1,000 during the You Go Girl Half Marathon. Last year I hit 1,000 in December, so I am sooo pleased to have hit this milestone so early in 2010. Need something to INSPIRE you to get out the door on these Gloomy Fall Days?

• CHALLENGE!!! 83 miles in October!! Email me your name, and Blog (if you have one) and I will send you a link to the 83 Mile Challenge Spreadsheet. Walk, Jog, Run, and Swim, track your miles on the spreadsheet and be listed on Tall Mom in November. Only 2.76 miles a day, you CAN and WILL do these. Start today!!! I know there are lots of Bloggy friends who will crush this, email me anyway, would love to have you in the CHALLENGE!!

Heard enough about You Go Girl this week?? TOUGH!! What a wonderful, amazing weekend. The memories made I will treasure. I have tons more pictures, so here are just a few... All the photos will be posted on Tall Mom Facebook Album HERE, more will be added so watch for that.

Thanks to Jill for the AWESOME list of Link Love, below are the ladies who attended the Bloggy Meet up and/or ran or "jalked" the You Go Girl Half or 10K.
