We have 4 confirmed users and 8 more unconfirmed in the group right now. Anyone I've missed?

All,

Despite the fact that I clearly am not the best at running, this challenge seems to be a very good thing for me. It is currently 32 degrees outside with small amounts of ice and snow on the ground, and yet I am going for a run. Without the challenge I'm not sure that I'd be quite this motivated.

I want to join the group. Just bought Nike+ made my first run...

I dont wear Nike+ shoes, and am waiting on one of the footstraps..I just put the sensor in my shoe, didnt bother me that much and kept accurate distance...

Blogged my run

5.8 miles at under 8:00/mile?!?! I can only dream. I would have died at least 7 times along the way. Hopefully by the end of this challenge I will work on my running endurance. I can hike 25 miles in one day with a 50 pound backpack, but I can't run more than a mile without stopping.

Does my passing you up for 1st last night have anything to do with this? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Be warned, I think I'm going to go out again tonight if I can.

I haven't updated my runs in a while, but I don't expect to be first in this group, since I'm doing dual training (cycling + running). [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Just got back from a slow but steady run. Covered ~3 miles according to google ped/mapmyrun but my pedometer only measured 2.75. I'm going to head back to the track to check on its calibration and see if it's just that elevation gain is throwing it off (the first half of my run goes steadily uphill).

I think people look retarded going backwards on the elliptical. It seems utterly pointless.

the point ain't to look good, sweetheart.

Oyah, I forgot. The impracticality is outweighed by the extra 3 calories you burn an hour which is immediately offset by the extra slice of pie they have with dinner.

doing the elliptical backwards is supposed to work your butt more. get that booty looking good girl.

i might join this running club. i do about 20km's a week which is probably 12-13 miles.

Yeah, I forgot to reply to that earlier, but going backwards on the elliptical has nothing to do with burning more calories. It's about working different muscles.
