That link doesn't work for me. It just takes me directly to my challenges.

Thanks for the link, that's one of the cooler ones I've seen. People are starting to get more creative now and I like how this guy has the other website set-up to track this one. I'm in.

Steel, i'm torn. I only can run 3.5 miles tomorrow to stay in your challenge, but in the NFL team challenge we need a "W" to make it to the playoffs.

Do I run enough to stay under 30 miles for the week, or do I say, "See ya steelblue challenge" and try and win this NFL one. I'm torn.

Or do I stay in bed and recover from the cold I got last night.

I won't kick you out. I just set 30/wk so that people who do significantly more wouldn't sign up. There's always some ass who signs up for challenges that are way below him just to get a little electronic trophy (giupino being the main one). The way the challenge is set up, it's difficult to do the weekly math unless they've really been paying attention.

Cool... Thanks. I may actually finish first in a challenge. Thanks Christmas for breaking up the usual running patterns for so many.

Did 6.5 miles today. By the way, I'm a wuss and use a treadmill (there's no way I'll run when it's 10 degrees. It kills my lungs and I almost always get a cold right after running in that climate).

Watched the last disc of the LotR trilogy though (usually I just stare at the wall) and that made it go by quickly.

Steel, in my "Run as many kilometers as there were goals in the EPL this week" challenge, there were 66 goals scored this last week... that's about 41 miles. So, I hope you're okay with that. (this week's challenge is going to be a challenge for me).
