VICTORY LAP: Run Around Australia!

Well folks, WE DID IT!  We ran all the way AROUND THE WORLD!  So we're celebrating by doing a victory lap around the continent of Australia, since it wasn't on the original route.  Help us make it around the land of OZ!

Join any time, discuss running, and just get inspiration and support!  You didn't have to have been part of our Run Around the World mission to join our Victory Lap.  Join us to help us run around Australia and to get running support, and then stay with us when we start our next MISSION!  And don't forget to join our Victory Lap Group!

I'd like to reiterate that you didn't have to be part of our Run Around the World to take part in the Victory Lap.  The Victory Lap is a way to keep us motivated before we start our next, out-of-this-world challenge!  We welcome all runners of all shapes, sizes and speeds!

I've been so busy this week that my biggest problem is that I don't have enough time to get a decent distance in.  Have had meetings or social committments every evening this week.  Then some days I also have to work a little late.  This leaves me with usually less than an hour to run.  Last night I just barely managed 4.5 miles.  That would be fine, except I had the energy and desire to run longer.  Of course, when I have the time, I don't feel that way.  Such is life!

Just bumping this up there in case people want to join our group!  We're pretty active over there.  Anyone who wants to join us as we run back around the world, c'mon over and join our group (link above)!  First we'll finish our Victory Lap around Australia and then we'll be trekking out across the world again!

bump again, keeping it on the first page :-)
