Tramps Cool Runner	posted Apr-29-2007 09:14 AM Okay, you got your taxes done in April but how did you do on the numbers that really count? Time for an audit. Enjoy. Be sure to post: 1. your total mileage for the month (indicate if this was a PR) 2. any race PR’s (include distance and time) Revised March numbers (incorporating late posters) Total = 16,322.3 Average = 137.2 Median = 137 Original thread is here Background for newcomers: At the end of each month, Boomers are required by the Information and Security Office of the National Archives and Records Administration to note how many miles (or kilometers) they have run that month. Don’t ask why; it’s the law. You must be 40+ years old and run or walk at least 1 mile to be eligible. Sorry, only running and walking numbers are counted. Figuring out a way to incorporate cross-training numbers would cause my head to explode. The deadline is midnight EST on the 2nd of the new month. The numbers are tallied and posted (usually on the 3rd) in a simple analysis that includes various awards, serious and silly. No matter how few or how many miles you have, please post! Every mile is an accomplishment. Final, revised numbers that incorporate late-comers will be reported with next month’s announcement. However, late posters are not eligible for awards and side effects of posting late may include dizziness, drowsiness, hyperactivity, mood swings, nausea, tiredness, or vomiting.

MrC Cool Runner	posted Apr-29-2007 09:41 AM Anachrotech, pathetic is the sedentary individual sitting in front of the TV w/ a bag of potato chips and musing about how running will ruin your hips, knees, back, etc. You got out there and did something and that is more than the majority of the population! Tramps, I'll post my mileage after my run tomorrow. ------------------ MrC IP: Logged

eliz4015 Cool Runner	posted Apr-29-2007 05:36 PM Tramps, thanks for doing this. Just in from my last-day-of-April outing. Ran 41.0 miles and walked 14.5 miles in April for a total of (ta-da) 55.5 miles. (If I can increase by 11.1 miles in May, it'll be downright satanic!) Highest running total since January. PR: highest walking + running total EVER!!!!! Eliz IP: Logged

rtravers Cool Runner	posted Apr-30-2007 06:41 AM Only 105.78 miles this month. This incorporated a marathon taper and a reverse taper, so I won't feel too badly. Despite the low mileage (or maybe because of it?) I garnered TWO race PRs this month! Boston Marathon (3:46:08) and the James Joyce Ramble 10K (48:31) Thanks for putting this all together, Tramps! --Robin IP: Logged
