Hi Again :smile: , and Welcome to our:

*** Runners' Team * 50+ and 100+ Miles in March Challenge *

We survived February, ready for another round for March? -- feel free to join us again OR now!

*** Checking-in/Joining:

To join, simply let us know your goal mileage, then check-in periodically, reporting your total mileage and what you have done for the day, or if you have a race coming up!

Example Check-in report throughout the month:

"I ran 5 miles today, I have run a total of 57 miles for the month! (:"

If you like a mileage ticker, here is a "how to thread" describing how to set up and update your ticker:

*** Where to post:

In this (A) thread or in the (B) group check-in thread below with appropriate end date (or both A and B).
A. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/507880--runners-team-50-and-100-miles-in-march
B. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/660-runners-team-challenge-x-miles-in-a-month

*** When and Frequency:

We will have check-ins at least once a week on Sundays (see dates on spread sheet). So it would be good to get updates
- at least once weekly on or before Sunday.

Feel free to update us more because is fun to hear from you and what you are accomplishing - and your updates helps us keep inspired too.

*** Spreadsheet:

We will check point your progress within this thread, and with a spreadsheet snapshot below. This spread sheet will change and refresh as March progresses.

*** Runners' Team Challenge Group:

We got a group - it is a bit easier to tally mileage from there, but it seems like most of us likes a big thread in the main forum for updates and progress - so we are doing both! [both places will be checked when updating the spread sheet].

*** Spread Sheet & Trophy & Legend:

    I just started a few days ago and caught the tail end of Feb. But it was fun and I'm in for another 50. I'm training for my first 50k, so this will help keep me going. Thanks for doing it!

    Put me down for 100! I am only scheduled to run 86 so I figure what's another 14, no big deal, right?

    I am so glad someone is doing this. I was a part of a challenge last month for 100 milles but people were walking/biking/hiking even dancing and calculating it into miles. I did my 100 miles running but this new challange is perfect for me! I think seeing that everyone is doing the same activity will help inspire me more. My goal is 100 again this month!

    This is my first post on MFP! I would love to join this challenge... I am training for my first full marathon at the end of April. My February total was 127 (as long as I do my run this afternoon!). In March I would like to run 140.

    Holy smokes, 140!!!!
