Welcome to all the new members. I almost feel like we should have some kind of initiation or hazing! Tongue

Hi... I'm new to the group. I finished the 1000 mile course last year. I'm hoping to do more this year.

Find the fun.

Hi

I'm new to the group. Signed up today when I saw I am only a few miles behind the bunny. I originally signed up in the 1000 Mile Group at the first of January, but have been ahead of the bunny the whole time. I think this mileage goal will be more of a challenge. So here I am.

Use your momentum...keep going. You know you can make it.
