    Hi

    I failed this month - I got 8/10 :rolleyes:. I usually aim for 8 so Ithought I would stretch myself.

    Going to try for 10 again next month - new month starts tomorrow. Will keep an eye for the new thread.
  • Another one for me. That makes 12 so far. :D

    I think so too - but I do have Easter, Blackpool half marathon and London Marathon and a trip to New York so I wont be too disappointed if I dont :D

    Wow London Marathon! I'm probably going to be doing it next year (apparently you're pretty much guaranteed a place on the 4th year of applying which it will be). I'm scared!! let us know how you get on!

    How do you guys decide your numbers for the month?

    I looked at the month and what i've got planned and counted the days i didn't have anything planned! But some of you seem to pick a number more randomly and then try and acheive it! So I thought I'd ask, just out of interest!

    I normally just pick a number that's not too high, but may still be abit of a challenge, and then go for it! :D

    Well...looks like i'm gonna fail this month's challenge, only got 4/10 so far and only got 5 day's to go!!!! :(.

    Will have to work out a plan so that i only have certain spend day's.

    It hasn't helped though with having to buy a paper every day this week for the holiday tokens! There must be a way round that one though...any ideas??

    well will update if i do manage to have a NSD anytime soon! - not holding my breath though! xx
