Mission: Run Around the World--MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!
We're on a mission to Run Around the World!
Please visit the previous incarnation of our thread here: http://caloriecount.about.com/forums/post/484 66.html.
Our wonderful leader Zarelha started one of the greatest motivators ever here on C-C: a mission to run around the world, one run, one runner at a time! All running mileage is acceptable (no ellipticals or swimming) and anyone is welcome to join at any time!
Some info about us:
We started the run at the Southernmost tip of South America, in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. We will end the run in Capetown, South Africa, at the ocean. The total mileage needed to finish is 23,854 miles.
Start date of the run: August 1, 2007, 12:00 midnight.
Weeks start on Wednesday and end on Tuesday. Runners who have had no movement in a full month were put on Hiatus, however, we want you back! Post more mileage at any time!
Our Tally Team will each take one week to be responsible for tallying up that week's mileage. Post here or PM the RATW user profile if you have any questions or concerns.
For detailed mileage, please visit our spreadsheet: http://www.editgrid.com/user/new_cc_worldrunn er/Runners_Log

Remember, ANYONE is welcome to join, and everyone is welcome back, no matter how long you've been away. Happy running!
wiliwigi: you could always set up spots along your training route where you hide bottles of water (in a bucket with ice and sponges, maybe?) and whatever electrolyte drinks offered on race day. You'll want to get your body used to any gator-junk they might be serving beforehand. If it's really hot, you'll need the electrolytes to keep you going. And don't forget gels -- they come after an hour's worth of effort. Wear white and have fun! Don't forget your hat!
Morning all! Please add 10 miles for me for the week ending 22 July. Hmph.
please add 6 miles this morning, thanks have a good day! 14.35 to go :-)
Miles for week July 16-July 22: 23.7 ; Fell short of goal of 30 miles - missed a run on Sunday and had car trouble yesterday that cost me training time. Did get bootcamp in at the pool and am feeling the effects of both Monday's and yesterday's workouts. Everything is sore!!!
July Challenge Goal: 100 miles Miles to Date: 75.8 miles
Planning an 18 miler for Friday. Do you think I would benefit from putting trash bags filled with ice on my legs after this run? I will not be able to get home to soak in a tub.
0.5 for me yesterday. thanks!
Folks, please stay tuned. Updates will occur this afternoon!
Sorry for this late entry for last week. Did 3.2 miles yesterday. Ended up being about 5 miles less than I had wanted to do for the week, but oh well. Today's a new day! And if I feel like skipping a run due to heat and humidity again, I'll just drive to my mom's (the stupid gym is closed again this weekend!!) and NOT PROCRASTINATE anymore.
wiliwigi - I had to laugh at your calling me a runner after my little semantic debate on that topic:-)
Oh well....will try and do a "long-ish" run tomorrow.
***************MILESTONES (Week ending 22 July)***************
400 Miles: skinny_kitty (412.02)
1800 Miles: Wrm2105 (1834.30)
2100 Miles: Aezell1 (2115.80)
Congratulations to this week's MILESTONE ACHIEVERS! Good job!
********************************************* *************
Good morning, all! GREAT JOB on the milestones, everyone! We are collectively impressive!
Not much to report here. I've been running 2.5 miles a day on the treadmill and feeling fine. Next week, I'll up it to 3.5 miles a day. If that goes well, then I'm back in the game! Crossing my fingers!
5 miles today. I thought I was going to finish in 35-40 mins the way it felt - it felt fast. I even got a bit excited and when I was on a quiet road did some simulated hurdles! I thought wahoo-I'm finally improving on that time when however little distance I ran it was 6mph/10min-mile. I finished in 45 minutes in the end. Hmm, oh well.
MTD: 221.2 miles. It looks like I'll barely make my goal for July.
4 miles today
please add 6.25 for me this morning, 8.10 to go
