Lexrunning 50 Runs in 50 Days Challenge
January 30th through March 20th, 2010Back
by popular demand, we'll once again do the Lexrunning 50 Runs in 50
Days Challenge this winter. It will begin on January 30th, 2010 and will end on March 20th, 2010. The
rules will be the same as in previous years and are as follows:
1) Runs must be at least 30 minutes in length to count.
2) Multiple runs in a day must be separated by at least 1 hour.
3) Treadmill running is okay; elliptical, bike, etc. don't count.
4) Speed and distance don't matter as long as it's at least 30 minutes (walk if you want).
Statistics will be on the honor system and will be kept on a Google Docs spreadsheet.
The only info you'll need to input each day is total number of
runs,
total time of all runs in minutes (i.e. 75 minutes of running is 75
minutes not 1.25 hours), and total mileage of all runs. That's
it, the spreadsheet will keep track of all the totals. Try not to
get crazy with the decimal points and keep your figures to the hundreth
or less for the sake of space. You don't
have to run every day, just 50 times in 50 days. Days off are
allowed if you want to do multiple runs on other days.
One change I'm making this year is that you don't have to email me to sign up and get access to the spreadsheet.
In the interest of creating less work for me I'm making the
spreadsheet open to anyone so if you want to participate you just need
to go to the spreadsheet found here, find an available cell and replace "Enter Name
Here" with your name. That's it. Keep in mind Google Docs
isn't as smooth as Microsoft Office so be patient and careful when
editing the page. If you happen to screw up the formatting please
email me ASAP and I'll try to straighten it out.
We
had a lot of people participate last winter and many met the 50 runs in
50 days. It's a great way to get in shape for that big spring
race on your calendar.
Good luck and good running,
Jim
