    So a week or two ago I teased you all with saying I had this great announcement to make about the final January numbers and then I dropped the ball... *palm-forehead-smack*

    Last month we set a couple of records, but the BEST one, which we CRUSHED by the way, was the percentage of those that made GOAL for the month! The old record was 59.6% and the new one is 73.5%!!!!! The average since the challenge began is only 42.5% :drinker: If you navigate the spreadsheet to the 'Summary' tabbed page, you'll see a new purple row (or lavender, depending on your display). I just came up with that and added it a couple of weeks ago, but calculated it back to the beginning. :smile: You know me, I'm always looking for new ways to geek out on the data. :laugh:

    Another record was the number of miles moved versus miles pledged....the old record was 107.5% and the new one is 109.5%. The average since we began tracking it is only 72.7%. :star:

    Another record was the 'Weighted Score' which awards more points the higher level everyone achieves as a group....the old record was 3.13 and the new one is 3.35! The average since we began tracking it is only 2.20. :drinker:

    ANYWAY....LONG STORY SHORT....in my opinion, it all adds up to a FANTASTIC MONTH! Arguably, the best month ever! Maybe it wasn't the most total miles, but of those that participated, we all joined together to be the most successful ever!! :heart:

    Thanks for all the numbers Dave! Nice to be a part of it.

    Didn't think I was still in the green after working the last two nights, but happy to see I am. Today's a very windy 3.3 mile walk. I probably could have blown down the road even more, it's really picking up out there.

    You betcha, Karen! I love playing with numbers :smiley: And the wind sure is great to run in when it's at your back as long as you don't have to turn around and run back into it! :mrgreen:

    I got a very chilly 2.2 mile lunch walk in again today and I'm very grateful that there was very little wind today or that would've been miserable...it was like maybe 6F again? Brrrrr.

    I wouldn't mind it at my back, but it seems to follow me head on, no matter which direction I go in. Mother Nature has a sense of humor. I'd have made some hot chocolate when I was done, but my stuffed nose makes it hard to taste anything and I didn't want to waste the calories.

    Adding another 33 miles for 138 out of 300. That should put me back in the green if the spreadsheet gets updated before tomorrow. :smile:

    Karen - I feel the same way when I'm bicycling. The wind always finds a way to be in my face on the way home. :smile:

    ... I am moving! Just keep forgetting to log the miles on here (should have no excuse now though that you can comment on boards from the app). Little behind my target but up to 36.5 running miles so far for the month ...

    Overwhelming work schedule plus a nasty cold has really knocked me down this last week. I finally felt well enough today to get outside for a nice walk. No land speed records, but the fresh air was nice, even if it was only 24F. I am hopeful that things are settled enough that I can get back in here more often and get out for more walks too.

    So, continuing with my every little bit helps theme, I added 15.25 more miles. Since February 4, so I really need to get it in gear.

    February total 20 miles

    It's nice to be back. Have a Happy Friday!

    Adding another 7 miles for 145 out of 300. Biking after weights makes your legs feel like wet noodles. Makes me want to get some Chicken Alfredo. :smile:
