banana#1 - Scott (road to mediocrity)

... just to give everyone a quicks head ups. Since Lani and I are running all our miles above 6700ft mean sea level, we're going to go ahead and add an extra mile or so for every mile we run. Put that in your proverbial pipe and smoke it :-).

your friend, Scott

Banana#1 - Scott {reigning DOGGiN Champ}

I'm in. Only I usually don't keep track of my miles. I'll just take my total time and divide it by four. That won't be perfect but I thought I might take it easy on the rest of you because, as the first and only person in the Universe to ever win a DOGGiN' it Banana Run, that's the kind of guy I am.

Okay- after some 'clarifying what qualifies' questions and considering our many different exercise tactics, maybe we should extend 'scouts honor' to accepting and inputting any exercise choice into mile equivalents (or in Guillaume's case, kilometer equivalents- we'll have Bren monitor and recompute that!). We do have a few less than enthusiastic runners who do other activities for their exercise. The upside is that we can all laugh hysterically when Michelle tries to convert standing and turn a stop/slow paddle into running miles.

Bananas #1 (Tricia and Kyle)

As pretty much the only non-runners in the family, Kyle and I will be counting basketball and moving chairs for EFY this summer instead of actual miles....ideas on conversions between chairs put up/down and miles are welcome ;-)

Banana #1 Logan

poop

Banana #1 Guillaume

Can I record mine in Kilometers?

banana #1 Dana

i want that cool mile counter thing elise has on her post...

Banana #1 MomD

So... does this replace our on site "fun run" and are t-shirts needed for all participants??

PS
Good thing Elise is keeping and eye on you know who!!!

Banana #1 RYAN

It is a slow start, but today I made it a good 1/2 mile.

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).
