    Re: Go for the Gold--Olympic Challenge

    Goo Morning Group!

    Here are my current totals: (they are a long way from 36.25 miles, but I'm getting closer!)

    08/09/08 - 2.0 miles

    08/10/08 - 2.5 miles

    08/11/08 - 2.0 miles

    08/12/08 - 2.5 miles

    08/13/08 - 2.0 miles

    08/14/08 - 2.5 miles

    08/15/08 - 2.0 miles

    08/16/08 - 2.5 miles

    08/17/08 - 5.0 miles (YAY! Treadmill all the way - it was still pretty hot and humid yesterday)

    TOTAL - 23 miles!

    So glad I woke up to rain this morning! We haven't had any for a while and everything is so dry. With the weather being cooler, I might just decide to "walk in the rain" today!

     Good morning.  Here's the update.

    As of 8/19, 7:41 AM ET, the US has 25 Gold, 25 Silver, and 26 Bronze.  They are really bringing home the medals.

    That brings our new challenge total to.......44 MILES.  Wow, it is getting to be a challenge.

    Bee's own tally.  I added 3 3/4 miles yesterday, so I'm at 30 1/4 miles.

    Keep up the effort everyone.

    Re: Go for the Gold--Olympic Challenge

     Hi, All,

    I only did 1 mile today- ran out of time b/c I had to take my daughter to the airport. My total thus far is 13 miles (!)- only 31 left to go by labor day in 13 days (that's an average of 2 1/2-3 miles per day if we don't get any more medals)...I THINK that's doable.

    I'll try for 4 tomorrow. Keep me posted on your progress.

    Well......I tried to post the following message...but it was deleted because I signed off with a Spanish phrase meaning "until later"......represented below with xxxxxx's...apparently we are only allowed to use English words!

     Hi folks...well...I DID post a message on Sunday...but it doesn't appear to have shown up....so, anyway, I did another 6.5 miles on Saturday the 16th. I took Sunday off from the treadmill. Another 6.4 yesterday and another 3.2 so far today Grand total= 50.2 miles xxxxx xxxxx, Ed

     Hi.  Here's today's Olympic update.

    As of 8/20, 6:40 AM ET, the USA has 26 Gold, 26 Silver, and 27 Bronze.  Fabulous, aren't they?

    That raises the TOTAL CHALLENGE MILES TO 45 3/4 MILES.  Is everybody having fun?

    Bee's personal tally: I added 2 yesterday, so I'm at 32 1/4 miles.

    Well, there's no denying that this is becoming a real challenge.  Let's all pat ourselves on the back for stepping up and giving it our best.  Hope the rest helps the knee, Pam.

    Re: Go for the Gold--Olympic Challenge

     45 3/4??? Whoa- I'd actually be happy if the US wasn't quite so good at getting medals (shut my mouth :] ).

    Thus far :                    8/15: 2 miles

                                        8/16: 3 miles

                                        8/17: 3 miles

                                        8/18: 4 mile

                                        8/19: 1 mile

                                        8/20: 4 miles

    Total:  17 miles (31 3/4 to go so far- keeping pace, I guess)

    Having fun!  Doing 4 miles per day from today thru at least next Monday (after that I start work again and will have less time in the a.m. - not sure if I can manage that much time, but I'll try)
