Mission: Run Around the World ratw
  Feb 18 2008 14:08

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/48466.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_worldrunner/Runners_Log

please add 3 miles for me today.  Tried running with the neighbor's dog again for part of it.  My left arm is already starting to ache from trying to reign her in.  Not to mention the rope burn on my fingers from the leash and the small cuts in my palm from my fingernails gripping the leash as tightly as possible.

Anyone have any tips for training a not-well-trained dog to run with you?
#1142 aeetheri Jul 03 2008 05:00
3 for me today (Wednesday)
#1143 trinzaka Jul 03 2008 06:35

4.32 for yesterday

#1144 heatherlanders Jul 03 2008 15:12

please add 5 for me this morning, have a great day!!

#1145 kscout Jul 03 2008 16:33
2.7 miles for yesterday.  Feeling a little less fatigued.  Bought a multivitamin to start taking every day - see if that helps.  May need to eat just a little more beef.

Last week's total:  27.6 miles ( A little short of the 30+ I was hoping for, but I don't want to knock myself out with overtraining)

wrm - thanks for your comments!
#1146 wrm2105 Jul 03 2008 17:21
Hi everyone, 13 miles today. I thought for a while that I was going to cut my run short today, because after about 2 miles or so, I felt like I had no energy whatsoever. Fortunately, things got better for me, and I was able to get my planned mileage completed (and then some).
#1147 jfk61 Jul 03 2008 17:35

Please add 10.9 miles for me this morning. 

First early morning run in a while---been trying to get used to the heat of the day when my half mary will be run.  Sooooo nice in the morning, though.....

#1148 aeetheri Jul 03 2008 20:17
only 1 for me today (Thursday)
#1149 trinzaka Jul 03 2008 21:01

1.55 miles of cooper test today :)

#1150 ducklingerthank Jul 04 2008 14:46

I think I'll have to pull out of the July challenge due to dodgy knee. No, I'll just lower it to 30 miles as a goal to do at the end of the month when I get back from egypt.

#1151 trinzaka Jul 04 2008 16:29

Ugh, real summer has arrived: 6.53 hot and sunny miles please.

#1152 wrm2105 Jul 04 2008 17:41
Hi everyone. 6.5 miles this morning, but I'll post again this evening. I'm headed to my parents house for 4th of July celebrations, and I'll be pounding out a few miles out there just to get in some hill running.
#1153 wrm2105 Jul 05 2008 04:23
Hi again. Add another 6.7 miles of rolling hills this afternoon.
#1154 shannymedic Jul 05 2008 15:49

Haven't logged for a while, been on vacation!  Please add 1.25 miles yesterday for July 4th.

#1155 wrm2105 Jul 05 2008 17:11
Hi, again (because I have no life)--5.3 recovery miles today.
#1156 ratw Jul 05 2008 20:19

There are many of runners on the cusp of setting milestone marks.  Keep an eye out for more updates. 

As we are in the midst of the summer weather, hydrate well before during and after your runs, stretch often, and listen to your body to avoid serious injury. 

Happy and safe running!!
