Hey, lynn857 and me (jadelady) are twins!
although this shows up as who runs the most - it is the cumulative miles that count! I will sum them up on Monday each week!
57.2 miles as of 6-16
This is pretty dang neat. I gotta do some miles for my ol' army buddies.
I think we are going to do a "real" run in San Francisco with some folks, but might as well count the training miles here!
Cewtwo is kicking some butt here.
I guess that I might be a runner!
Contributing my little bit - hmh - this one makes the miles mean more...
wow, take a vacation and you fall pretty far behind...time to catch up
Go cewtwo, go!!!
Great job running for the fallen - as of 7/15 we have all run just over 2297 miles for the fallen!!!
At the rate we are going, we are going to exceed the number of fallen US soldiers - and have enough miles to remember the non-US casualties as well (total as of today 4434). Keep on running everyone!
