My virtual run across America, and a business idea.

Well, I'm 65978. I'm just starting to run and I am in horrible shape so this will likely take me about 20 years to complete, but I might as well give it a shot.

Cool. I'll link up with you.

Someone who didn't put in their name linked up with me a while back. It could be a planeteer or someone else, but I was curious. It's 65869.

Also finished with my best monthly total after 4 miles this evening. 128 to best my previous of 119.5

Did my quarterly update this morning. Ran/Biked about 565 miles since my last update (February 8th). I'm about 24 miles from the Kansas/Colorado border. I started training for the KC Marathon this week, so I should really start racking up the miles.

I was wondering who just passed me. I got an e-mail notification that I'd been passed, but it only gives a number, not a name.

I'm right behind you. I should hit 2,000 miles this weekend and am probably 100 miles from the Colorado border.

I hit 2,000 miles last night. I'm about 30 miles from the halfway point across the country.

I wish they would add another route. Maybe a South-North or something. I'm just into Kentucky but have already begun wondering what I'm going to use for motivation once I'm done.

Yeah, me too. I wonder if you could jury-rig something out of google maps. Do they have street view for highways?

I'm at 2,100 miles now. 2,105.7 to be exact, and I am now in the great state of Colorado. I am officially more than halfway across the U.S. now, and boy are my arms tired.

Congrats

Does this idea have any room for pitting people against each other with exotic weaponry?

In!

Hit the 1,000 mile mark this morning (I know it's not a "state line" but I would have never thought I would do 1,000 miles in a year, let alone in nine months).
Should hit Illinois by the end of next month.

Awesome. Congrats! Illinois is nice because it goes really quick and you get to cross the river at the end.


I'm still cruising along, currently at 2,375 miles just outside Dillon, Colorado, headed toward Wyoming.

Crossed into Illinois after four miles this afternoon.

Kentucky is a long one, isn't it? It seemed like it took me forever to get across Kentucky, though in fairness that was when I'd hurt my knee and wasn't getting many miles in for a while.
