Did my last run for February. A nice 3 miler to warm up for the 10K tomorrow. So now I'm at 105% of goal! This has been a great team! You all are so inspiring! Keep up the fantastic training in March.

I know pretty much everyone made their goal already, but please make sure that your totals on the spreadsheet are correct.

Thanks to everyone for a great month!  This was a great team and I really enjoyed being on a team with all of you.

Hi everyone....I did my last run for the team...yesterday...and ended up with a total of 64 miles...106% my legs couldn't go farther, but I am going to go and do the 2.5 miles now...cuz it is beautiful...I got home early and feel guilty that most of you hit it and I did not! so, on that note...gotta run...will make sure to update the spreadsheet when I am done....had a great month with you guys! You guys are the best and as you know from my cartoon caricature...YOU ARE HOT!!!! I guess we have one extra hot firefighter...whom I will not name names....we will let Allyssa...since she started it!     and oh, Lynne...I saw you wanted to ask me which of the superstars you are.....well of course you are the one with the cute new hairdo!   

I will be checking in on each and every one of you on occasion...and will try to send an occasional...and some of you daily inspires...hope you will do the same.....I am sure that I am going to plateau soon and will need lots of kicks in my butt!

Allyssa...see you tomorrow! hope you have a ride planned for the Peep Jousters!

  Lynne, of course you are the snake in this one! no, wait you are cheeps...This runner better be careful, cuz we know where cheeps likes to nip at....

Way to go team...no matter what the turn out is....you are all winners to me!!!

I got in my last 2.5 miles in tonight to make 50 miles and to join the 110% club. I wanted to say thanks to everyone - I have been having problems with the mojo not being around so I joined this challenge and with the exception of the week that I was sick - I put together a pretty nice looking month. Now hoping I can string a few more "pretty nice" months together and maybe I will be on my way to my goal weight.

Thanks again - hopefully run into some of you in other challenges (I know I am a competitor to a bunch of you in the March bike challenge).

Reminder:

Please make sure you've logged your February training totals on the Google Spreadsheet by midnight tonight (your local time).

I will be compiling the results tomorrow morning, and announcing the FINAL TEAM STANDINGS!

This will determine the winner(s) of the February Challenge.... as well as those who will be displaying the losing Penalty Avatars.

If you have trouble using the Spreadsheet, please let your team captain know.

And remember, the March Biking Challenge starts today! There's still time to sign up, if you haven't done so already.

I just went through and checked everyone's totals against their logs.

For the challenge, we achieved 113.42% of our goals!!  Corrected for the 110% maximum, we are at 107.28%!

Everyone on the team achieved at least 100% of the goal and 11 of the 19 people on the team got to 110%!

This has been an amazing team and everyone did a fantastic job.
