Century Club - The purpose of this Century Club group is to motivate one another to safely achieve an individually set monthly mileage goal (usually 100 miles) of RUNNING (primarily running, walking is allowed). The monthly goal is supposed to be challenging but achievable with consistent effort. Setting this goal is a great way to stay motivated and disciplined during each month. The idea is, every time you RUN, you post your DAILY amount AND your monthly TOTAL amount on that day, AND any encouraging and fun gestures. Our PRIMARY GOAL is to achieve and maintain a healthy life
