Banana #1 Rules

This is going to be a 'nike challenge' minus the 'nike' part of it since I know all of you don't have a nano and running chip or the wrist band. I have sent everyone in the family an invite to join this blog as an author. So how is it going to work? Read on...

Goal:
Run the most miles between Monday July 12th and Tuesday August 17th (inclusive).
Miles Ran Equivalents:
Elliptical - Jog pace (assuming you are working at your jog pace)
Swim - 1 mile swam = 4 miles ran
Bike - 3 miles biked = 1 mile ran

Rules:
- Each family member competes individually
- No wearing pedometer all day to bump up the miles, BUT if you do choose to walk/bike as a mode of transportation that DOES count
- We're going on scouts honor
- Post updates must been done at least once a week (if you fail to update with your current miles and more than a week elapses since you ran the miles you may no longer count the miles)

Entry:
I have sent invites to all family members to join this blogs as an author. If you intend to participate (and you should), create a post called Banana #1 ____ and fill in the blank with your name. When you run miles you will need to update your original post with your additional miles...in other words you are in charge of keeping the running total. Your post MUST be created prior to the first day of the banana (July 12th).

Prize:
So what are we competing for? Well, since I currently live in a very cool place, I figured it only fitting to do something I think is really cool:

I will be delivering the set to you at Dana's wedding (assuming I actually make it there).
