    @Teresa502 I created a team named “MFP Team E” and can rename it once we come up with a creative name

    Back on this thread I posted some team name suggestions from a site @elise4270 gave me. You can take a look back and see if you like any of them.

    Also I have not been able to find anyone using the search function (teams yes, individuals no) I have had to just jump through the list of users until I got to the right area alphabetically. The only one I haven't found that way that I have looked for is @BeverlyW1108

    Same here about searching individuals...

    I didn't have a problem finding teams. Hmm... It did take a sec to load the results. If you participated last year, maybe have to change the year in the upper left drop down that looks like it's nothing.

    I cans search teams, just not individuals, it does take a few to load, but then just reverts to the first listing...I can’t find anyone. I got lucky with you and @shanaber lol. The rest I can not find. I’ll try the drop down.

    Congratulations Pavement Pounders for sprinting out front! I have no run planned for today but should get out for a walk with the pups later.

    @Camaramandy648, @Teresa502 and @BeverlyW1108 - what are your display names in RTY? For whatever reason I cannot find you to follow. Maybe you can follow me and then I can find you?

    If we don’t have anyone join team E in a few days, I’ll get dh to do join. Last year he made about 700 miles so he should be good for 500. I hope. Maybe his team against my team will push him a bit. He hasn’t had as much motivation since I’ve been out.

    I could do some GPS tracked walks while I’m still in recovery mode from my hamstring if that helps too. My current pledge is conservative to account for coming back from injury. I had planned to only count running miles. Once I’m fully recovered I’ll likely be running 15-20 weekly miles

    I see what you mean about finding individuals. I know there were some bugs with the Apple watch Beta thing that was supposed to be sorted soon.

    @emmamcgarity I'll find the right moment to see if DH wants to join in. But I bet there is a lurker just waiting to join. c'mon don't be shy, part with 25 bucks and run with us. We already love you, fellow runner. what kind of shoes do you run in?

    I think I've got all the teams apart from team Bad@ss - I assume this is not how you're registered @eleanorhawkins? Do I need to search for you as an individual under the same name? This is my first time on this challenge so sorry for all the questions...

    I believe I have requested to follow all of the teams and @eleanorhawkins . I still am having trouble following people, but I guess as long as I can see my teammate on the team that is all that matters.

    I opened a question/problem with the Run the Edge team a few days ago regarding the individual search issues. They were sure I was doing something wrong so I decided I should document what I was seeing. I was finally able to get some screen shots and the response wasn't great but essentially that they think it is a database performance issue (database too busy). I am not convinced as an ex-IT performance analyst but maybe @ddmom0811 would have an opinion since she is a database specialist. I may try doing some searches tonight when it should be considerably less busy and see what happens.
