    3.3 miles. And that includes a few steps stopping to upright an overturned snail on the asphalt and find him a shaded spot in the grass. Us slow creatures have to stick together.

    HEEEEY!!! Great to see you again, Laura!!! I'm glad you put that ticker in there cuz I made a typo entering your goal and was only going to make you run 15 miles this month!! :laugh::laugh:

    Just saw you're a fellow Minnesoooootahn. I live not too far from MSP International Airport and the (in)famous Mall of America. I've been through your lovely town a few times in my travels over the years. A very pretty area. I bet it's especially gorgeous this time of year while the leaves are turning colors! I ought to head out on my motorcycle in the next week or two and take some of it in.

    A Minnesotan! It's very beautiful up here right now! My profile photo is pretty grainy (it's a cell phone shot of a frozen TV image) but if you check the background that was just last weekend. I used to live down in the TC metro area (Blaine, St. Louis Park, just out of downtown Mpls, New Brighton & finally Burnsville) but enjoy the quieter pace up here in the Northland. :smile:

    I wasn't sure when your profile pic was from, but that is pretty now! I grew up in Rosemount and since I got out of the military have lived all over Dakota County....Apple Valley, Lakeville, Inver Grove Heights and currently Eagan. :) I have a heinous daily commute to work in Eden Prairie. Love the rush hour traffic. :grumble: I bet it is much nicer up there not having to deal with that sort of stuff. :) I've vacationed and traveled up north a lot over the years and have often fantasized about living up there. Maybe sometime after my two sons finish school in 5 more years.

    @STACYSUM & @HURTJA - Never too late! You've been added to the list (spreadsheet) and WELCOME! As always, I encourage all new people to go back and read the first post on Page 1 as it explains how things work around here. :) When we post the link for the spreadsheet, it's just so you can view it. You don't edit it. You post your workouts and Monthly total so far in the thread here (daily or every couple of days) and there are a couple people that collect that info and keep the spreadsheet up to date.

    @KAR328 - AWWW! That was kind of you to help that little snail out. :)

    After weights this morning, 2 miles was all I could add walking. Squats really take it out of my legs. So two more miles for 76 total.

    Thanks, Buddy!! I'm headed to the gym shortly to add a couple more miles myself!! :drinker:

    ...and WOOHOO!!!! We rolled it to a Part 2 on only the 5th day of the month!!!!
    smiley-happy057.gif

    SOOO....what do geeks do when they have spare time on their hands?? They play with spreadsheets. Sad, but true. :bigsmile::laugh: Today I added another little tidbit of trivia to the 'Summary' tabbed page that I know at least @SPEEDYF will be interested in!!! :wink: I added calculations to count how many women or men there are participating during the month and ones that over time will say what the record high and average months are. Of course this counts on each monthly spreadsheet being accurate in flagging you as the proper gender...(Male=m, Female={blank}) I went through and did my best to make sure there was an 'm' next to every guy that is participating this month. And to count the women, I subtract the number of guys from the grand total of all participating this month. As always, if there are any errors, kindly bring them to my attention and I'll fix them stat.

    Hope you're all having a great, active weekend! Off to my date with the Dreadmill!!! :drinker:

    @sufferlandria:
    You are certainly pushing me!!! :flowerforyou:
    I just want to go out for a run, but I can't. :sad:
    Trainer's order. No running for me during the weekend since I'm already running 5 days (Monday to Friday)
    :grumble: :grumble: :angry:
    I just want to go out there... Maybe I'll allowed myself a short run tomorrow morning. Only a 5k.
    Just don't tell her... :indifferent:
