Ack! wil_snailfoot missed getting his 100th shield this week by less than two tenths of a mile! Oh, the humanity. Next week for sure!

We've jumped ahead a bunch since soprano1 has left us. Ah well. Down to 10 walkers, which at least has the advantage of making certain calculations much easier.

Long walkers this week are silmaril with over 20 miles (might be for two ( Read more... )

I completely forgot to put out a reminder last week -- sorry guys! Since I'm leaving again tomorrow, this is your reminder to put your mileage in for this week so you can stand up and be counted next week.

tacnukesoul is nearing his 100th shield -- woo! edward_stanford is just about to start the Isengard Half -- woo hoo! And soprano1 will be gone by next week, since she's had ten ( Read more... )

Nothing much to report this week -- except that we're a mere 10 weeks from Week 200. Woo!

This week's long walkers are tacnukesoul and lonebear, with over 15 miles each.

New shields:

- 54th for koralleen
- 70th for edward_stanford
- 98th for tacnukesoul
- 125th for lonebear

( Week 190 )

Please join me in congratulating silmaril, who has reached 2500 miles and her 100th shield! Over the past few months she's fought her way back from a broken leg to become the third member to reach that goal. 100 shields! Wow! And she and Aragorn still haven't made it to Minas Tirith! That guy does not believe in short cuts, that's for sure ( Read more... )

Our long walker this week is lonebear, with over a shield's worth, as well as a just-turned-one daughter. Congrats! thirdbase is back with us too, and even though her mileage is small, it's hard-won, plus she's celebrating her third year on the road. Congrats to her too!

We have some other walkers drawing near to big goals -- kugelblitz is getting close to 2000 miles, ( Read more... )

A cold wet week -- no wonder we didn't get much mileage. Our only longwalker is tacnukesoul, with over 15 miles.

However, with the loss of 8_legs_better, we've jumped ahead a couple hundred miles anyway. So there.

A mere three very soggy and cold shields:

- 76th for kugelblitz 1900 miles!
- 96th for tacnukesoul 2400 miles!
- 123rd for lonebear

( Week 187 )

A tip of the hat to tacnukesoul, who was in the MS Walk and thus earned two shields at once. Also to lonebear and kugelblitz, who did bike support for same ( Read more... )

First off, congrats to kugelblitz for finally getting to pry the talons of that darned Eagle out of his tunic! Yeowch! He's now headed back to Minas Tirith for the coronation, and there will be NO FLYING INVOLVED. NONE WHATSOEVER ( Read more... )

Well, I got to this a *little* bit earlier than last week, but not much.

Happy three-years-on-the-road to giraffeaholic! And some of that was done while carrying a very wiggly baby. Many kudos to her hubby lonebear as well, for hitting the 3000 mile mark! That's pretty darn amazing. To put that in perspective, New York to San Francisco is about 2930 miles. So I ( Read more... )

I really don't have any excuse for being this late this week -- I blame Sauron. Because let's face it, why not? Everybody else does.

This is slightlymadmom's last week -- goodbye, slightlymadmom! Come back when you can!

Long walkers this week are lonebear, with over 30 miles, and tacnukesoul, with over 15. I'm expecting landkurt to be back on this list by next week -- you can't have a triumvirate ( Read more... )
