The Bad Omens Team Thread

Hi Team!

Will post a proper hello tomorrow... its very late Down Under and WAY past my bedtime setting this up!

Just to let you know tnickerson is joining our team as well.... so an extra one to add to our list...

Catch everyone in the morning

My name is Jim.  I started the month off right with a run this morning.  So my weekly total is 6.82 miles which is a little over 5% of my total commitment of 125 miles. 

I'm training for a marathon December 9th which I hope to do in 4 hours. I hope that being on a running team called "Bad Omen" isn't a bad omen on my chances of making it.

I'm happy to be here with you all, so let's go kick some haunted butt.

I was going to paste a link to each participant on my spreadsheet, but decided if I was going to take the time, everyone else should be able to use the links.....

Your team line up is:

1. Atl runner
2. El Flaco
3. Enders Shadow
4. Gaiaserver
5. Kaqphin
6. Oweiss
7. Sparco
8. TexOma
9. Tntexpres
10. tnickerson
    

Let's kick some butt team!

Hey fellow Bad Omens! Let's win this thing.

I'll be adding ~5 miles to the pot tonight with some treadmill Intervals. Some good training for sure.

Let's get the month started right. Running is our first love for the next 30 days. Give over to the dark side. Runner's are Awesome! .. and let's face it, we look good too. So let's show every other team that attempts to cross our path exactly what A Bad Omen we can be.

Good morning Bad Omens...my name is Sal and I'm a BT addict...

Wasn't gonna run very much this month.  I'm gonna pace my wife in her 1st half marathon on the 13th, and then WAS planning on calling it quits on the running until January, concentrating strictly on swimming and biking October through November (in prep for my 1st half iron in June).  But once again, BT changed that all!

Thanks Catherine (kagphin) for heading this up, and Tam, welcome to the team!  With your training discipline, it's gonna be hard for us to lose this one.

Good luck all.  I'll try to get in a few miles this afternoon.

Pay no attention to the previous post.....I think he has lost his marbles!  Greetings teammates.  I'm El Flaco.  I'm a runner turned triathlete so I think this is a good challenge for me.  I've got a maraton planned for the 21 of this month so my training miles are fairly high.  Let's kick some arse!

  edited to say I'm in for 150!!

I'm betting that a team that has 2 people that challenged 200 miles and 2 more over 100 miles will be easy to beat.  Someone in there will fall short.  Maybe more than one.

We have 3 people that challenged over 100 miles.  I wonder who he thinks the 2 starters are?

I see that

I nominate you for team leader.

Hey Spokies!  This is an easy one.  If we can just get you on the mindset that running = swimming, I think we've got you beat...(good-natured ribbing IS allowed here, right?)

Maybe we need to send some black cats to walk across the other teams threads?

Hey Team,

We have a new team member Mesteren who will hopefully drop by and say hello soon! He is also very good at making those picture sticky thingys for logs during the challenge so I might just ask him nicely

We have the classy women here

Hiya,

Apologies for not making an introduction earlier! I'm Catherine but everyone calls me Cat (outside of work and immediate family anyway).

I'm a kiwi living in Australia which means Im half a day ahead of the US (approxiamatley). We are heading into summer here but due to a variety of health and injury issues I had to write off last season and a lot of the winter training has been spectacularly inconsistent!

Im hoping to race some short distances over the summer here and possibly if I can stay consistent, aim for a HIM either mid or late 2008.

For this challenge Ive committed to 800 minutes of running.

i look forward to us WINNING!

Cat

You Sandbagger... What are you going to do for the other half of the month?
