Good morning, team! If your name is on the list above, you are part of team 3. WELCOME! (If your name isn't on the above list, what are you doing lurking in our thread anyhow?)

My name is Kristen and I am a challenge junky. I HEART challenges and I HEART the folks that run them.

Anyway, enough love - I am your fearless team captain, which thanks to Dee's hard work, requires very little effort on my part. Please enter your miles/time on the spreadsheet when it is provided, but if you have problems, let me know & I'll help out.

So let's get rolling and have a great month. Please introduce yourself...

Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin):

What's your goal?

Are you training for any specific race yet?

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!)

Glad to have you all on board!

Kristen

Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin): Kristen, but I'll answer to Enders (or "O Captain, my Captain," if you like)

What's your goal? 75 miles!

Are you training for any specific race yet? Yep, I'm doing my first half-mary on March 16 and I'm following (mostly) the Runners World Smart Coach program for my goals.

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!) Both!

I'd like to try and get on this team, if you will have another poor pathetic runner who is shooting for 60 miles for the month.  Is there a link to the spreadsheet where we can enter our information?

I'll try to make it happen.

Yooohooo - TinkerBeth? Are you listening? Can you put max on Team 3? (Sometimes this works...I'll try my other avenues as well.)

Mornin' Captain & team 

Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin): Ellie is fine. 

What's your goal? 30 miles, coming off 2 months of nothing but swim, swim, swim.

Are you training for any specific race yet? Building Better Tomorrows 5K is the first one on the list, but it'll be followed by some other races & hopefully the NJ Tri.

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!) Little bit of both, I love the love but sometimes a kick in the pants is more effective.

I am Amy, but abud is also fine.

Goal 40 miles.

I have 5k trail run Sunday. A sprint in March...and so on.

I love daily inspires. Ii makes my day when I log on and see them there. I am, however, bad at sending them to everyone. I have two small kiddos that need some attention.

I'm having a sureal afternoon, so I'll save introducing myself until I can summon a little clarity.

But for a name, my first suggestion is "the Gingerbread team" - because we'll run, run as fast as we can and the other teams can't catch us... you get the picture. 

 8 hours behind a computer can do this to me on a Friday

Actually, I've just read the story online. At the end the fox eats the gingerbread man, so maybe not sure a good idea after all...

Hi everyone! 

Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin): Tammy

What's your goal? 35 miles, I am coming off hip tendonitis, and an injured IT band, so trying to build up the run again.

Are you training for any specific race yet? probably a 5K in April if I can find time between my kids activities.

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!) Both, as someone said I love the love, but sometimes I need a swift kick in the pants.  I have to be reminded to slow down, (although I am not fast) I run as hard as I can....the faster I run, the faster I get it done Undecided.

And yes, to head off any questions, I am running in this challenge even though I am notarunnr.  I am a swimmer, but trying to make peace with the run! I am making headway, but it is quite a love/hate relationship.  I do it best when I run with someone, like the Dead, Dave Matthews, the Moody Blues, and yes sometimes my son's emo music.

Looking forward to the challenge.  I do like the Gingerbread men...run, run as fast as you can, we won't get eaten in the end.

No, no - it looks like Runs with Scissors is taken, but I think the Gingerbread Man is still open...

Can't Catch Us, We're the Gingerbread Men? Or just Gingerbread Men?

Any other ideas? (Sorry Max - Team 2 is fast. At posting. Not running!)

Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin): Kimberly or any rendition of my signin. O Hail Runner is always fun. I wanted to be notarunner, but I decided to go with the postive sentiment hoping it helps.

What's your goal? my goal is 30 miles. I did 25 last month with Marmadaddy and well, I need to step up a bit. I run only so I can tri. I HEART swimming and I HEART biking. I need to learn to HEAT running. ( I wish I could make my HEART red like you did but I don't know how sorry)

Are you training for any specific race yet? I have four this year but 2 are bike races and 2 sprint tris. Depending on the running thing may add a 5K or 10K by the end of the year

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!) I am an inspire me junkie. I finished my goal on the last day of January because someone was kind and sent me messages in my logs. Oh and I don't care what the messages say, just DON"T dis my speed or my mileage. I am REALLY doing my best when I am training. Just get on me if I miss more than 2 days in a row.

Glad to have you all on board!
Glad to be on board!

Gingerbread works for me.

Just got back from a very short lunchtime run.  Only 27.5 more miles to go.

Subject: RE: February RUN 3 team thread starts here!
Name (if you'd rather us call you something than your signin): Melissa, but calling me Bunny is fine, too.

What's your goal? 35 miles

Are you training for any specific race yet? I have a 5k coming up on Sunday. I'm signed up for another on April 6th. I'd been considering one on Feb. 16, but that looks like it won't happen now since I'll likely be in Tennessee that weekend instead of Detroit.

And, most importantly, are you more inspired by lovey messages or would a good kick in the pants suit you better? (We can do either, or both, at your request!) Both, as needed depending on how things on my training log are looking.

On a side note, I'll likely be pretty quiet the next couple of days. My brother-in-law was killed in a car accident yesterday and I'm just not feeling very social.
