Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character.
-- T. Alan Armstrong
Running is the greatest metaphor for life,
because you get out of it what you put into it.

15 miles starting Sunday and ending Saturday... Yep that easy and you know you can do it! Just log your daily miles, the total miles for the week and encourage your fellow challengers to make their goals, yep it's that easy.
"Run when you can. Walk when you must. Crawl if you have to. Just never give up." Dean Karnazes, the Ultramarathon Man
For the folks returning you know that the 15 miles is not the main goal. The main goal is just to get up and get moving, if you don't meet it that's fine and you surpass it, well that just freaking rocks.
For new comers the preferred method of posting miles would be:
Sunday-miles-what you did Monday-miles-what you did Tuesday-miles-what you did So on and so forth, posted daily or when the miles occur...
Total- Running total for the week thus far
As always this is not set in stone, if you post every other day or whatever fits into your schedule, but please try to stay close to the above format.
For those folks that don't do miles

for conversion to be made easy (Thanks Nonafit)
Now let's get moving folks
No matter who you are, no matter what you do,
you absolutely, positively do have the power to change.

Fantastic job on the 10k, you are amazing!!! (I have on scheduled at the end of September, cant wait.)
Glad the sitter thing worked out, I would have a done it, might have had to split airfare and you might have had a new room mate for about a week, :laugh:
I have been wanting to get a bike, going to start saving for one. That will be a great way for you and your sister to spend some quality time while getting fit at the same time.:drinker:0 -
