i'd love to set one up and invite people ...

you dont have to be a runner (i dont run 80% of the time)...

You pick the challenge...and I am in! I think whosyadaddy was going to get this too...but I don't know if I want to compete with him! We would have to add our miles together!

now how did i know you were going to be the first to reply ... :cool2:

i'll set up the challenge now, im going to make this invite only, so i need your nike+ name as well.

[salsa1877 10]

it is salsa1877

Of course I was going to be the first one to respond.

1. I need the challenge

2. I am incredibly competative

3. I don't have a life and am hooked to LBT.

Actually my students are working on "busy" work today! Bad teacher today...Oh well 1 day out of 180 is not too shabby

LJM -- Not to sound ignorant (even though I am :cool2:) but what is a nike challenge? Is this something that only those who are more fit can do? I just started the couch to 5K today and LOVED it! I'd be interested in finding out what you are talking about. Thanks!

[salsa1877 10]

I am going to have to kick it into high gear because I am going to have at least a 4 week hiatus for the TT. But this challenge should get my back.

I told DH about this and he said "damn...I'll never see you now. You will be running, and running, and running." He knows how competatitve I am!. Thanks for starting this it's the kick I need too!

Thanks for thinking about that...but you get an automatic 26.2 miles! GRRRR...Only supposed to run 4 miles tonight, but I might have to do more. See the juices are flowing!!!

ok...I am an idiot...I was trying to get my runs to show up and then I realized that you are not starting the challenge until Monday night.

You sneaky thing...my 12 mile run is on Sunday!

Nah...this is about YOUR Tuesday! I will make up for it...only 3 weeks left of work and then I have all day to run/walk!

Plus it will give some others a chance to join!

Can a pre banded WALKER join you?

I would be honored if YOU let me.

You're an inspiration but you've read me say that to you before!!

I love the Nike+ and just got a small pocket for the sensor from Marware....if it is accurate(and my sensor has it's moments) people would not have to purchase the Nike+ sneakers. A savings despite still needing the nano.

Anyhoo, If you can tolerate a low mileage pre bander..let me know.

I just blogged yesterday about how nice it was to see people I didn't know join a few of the challenges I put up on Nike+. Makes me feel there are others out there in my shoes....so to speak.

I also LOVE the grab the link featuer that lets us post or mail the days progress. VERY inspirational.

I am sure LJM will invite you...but watch out...she is vicious! On my blog she tried to get me to "take a few weeks off!" AHHHH the nerve!
