    I duplicated the instructions from the October thread on how to add a ticker below:

    To add a ticker in your signature, please select (click) the "Signature" link on the forum's top liners, see here:

    then copy past the ticker code here (see pink highlighted area):

    I want in as well. I'm a newbie runner, so my goal might be small.

    Yes please join!

    Any milage goal is fine - most people in October did 100 miles, some did fewer (50 miles) and some did more (200 miles) -- I am aiming for a 100 again - that seems to be just right for me (:

    Welcome everyone to the threads - both newbies and oldies (form October thread)!
    Ok, I figured out how to add the ticker, but how do I update it???

    You go to the URL address:

    http://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php?type=8

    within the same browser that you created the ticker, then add the pin. If you can't recall the pin, you may have to create a new one....

    then click on "Add", enter the milage you are adding, then click the "next' button, so it 'remembers' what you entered.

    Hope that helps,
    Maria

    Ok - I didn't hit the 100 mile mark last month. But I am ready for the new challenge in November. Count me in!

    Started the month off today with 3.5 miles. Only 96.5 more to go! :tongue:

    Alright - so I am a little overzealous - just a day early. I guess I can add the 3.5 to last month.:laugh:

    I may have done that last month but I am not sure because the ticker just accumulates. (:
