    This is like a virtual relay race!

    249.1 + 3.14 (mix of walking and running, but it's the best I can do right now) = 252.24 miles.

    I ran another 5.6 miles this morning to bring the total up to 249.1

    @johnhowson, I don't expect to live long enough to be there at the finish line of this challenge. It doesn't matter.

    If the total distance is only 24,900 miles, and we are at 249.1 miles now (actually, 252.24 miles), we really only need to do 100 times more than we've done so far!

    I started the thread 18 days ago, and it only started up slowly. Will this take us 5.5 years? nahhhh. I think that as the thread gains momentum (I see a LOT of people posting in various threads about running and I know a lot of people are using running to get fit) we'll see this pick up speed.

    My guess... 2 years, tops.

    I'm an optimist :)

    252.24 + 10.2 = 262.44

    I just ran across this thread. Since it began on 9/26 I've run 48.25 miles...

    262.44 + 48.25 = 310.69

    Question, what are people using for tracking their runs anyway? I'm using a Garmin that I love, but I know folks who are using all kinds of stuff.

    Just saw this. I'm a beginner, but willing to start posting my miles on here if you'd like another person to join. Did 3.1 today.

    373.54 + 3.1 (for bregalad5) + 41 for (zoey36918) and + 6.91 (for me today) = 424.55

    bregalad and zoey, just add in your runs to the total.

    373.54 + 3.1 (for bregalad5) + 41 for (zoey36918) and + 6.91 (for me today) = 424.55

    bregalad and zoey, just add in your runs to the total.

    Alrighty. I haven't separated out my runs from my walks and swims, so I have no idea how much I've done so far, but I'll start separating! :smile:
