Let the Nike+ Pied Piper Spirit Continue

JUST BECAUSE the Nike+ 10K Human Race is almost over, doesn't mean the Pied Pipers have to say "good bye." I've never been good at "good bye" anyways:)

I'm now taking suggestions for a "New Project" that we could do "Virtually" together! Here are the things to think about and to respond to:
  • What would be fun?
  • What are you all training for that being a part of the Pied Pipers would still benefit you?
  • How could a virtual team get you from point A. to point B.?
  • What does your ideal virtual team look like?
  • What could we do better? Different? The same?
  • How could we keep it creative and continuously interesting?
  • How long should we do this for?
  • Who would we want to recruit?
  • How would we recruit new people?
  • What else????
If you are interested, please post your comments on this Blog so we can all see and respond and collaborate on!

    I am training for the half marathon in January so if you still posted challenges it would keep me motivated!

    I would love to do the virturally Nike Women's Half Marathon that is happening in March-- gotta keep up the long runs - perhaps different challenges?

    Working together as a team is also so great. What if the Pied Pipers did a 1,000,000 miles together?

    First off, we should do another team mileage challenge.
    Every team likes a mileage challenge to get them in the spirit of running towards a common goal.

    Second, if you want to start by bringing in a challenge to drive people towards finishing half-marathons and full marathons. Perhaps instead of doing another 10k run day, we should incorporate a half-marathon and full marathon day. Boy would this possibly get people stoked for distances!!

    I am very much interested in this. I did not join the Pied Pipers till "downstream". How long have the Pied Pipers been around, anyway.I will give this a lot of thought.

    I agree with Sean. Let's aim for Half/Full Marathon.

    I am just looking to get better as a runner. Thank you for all your inspirational comments. Sometimes when I have not been motivated to run I've seen a comment and just did it. I am looking to maintain my current training level and exceed it.

    The Kaiser run in S.F. on 2/7/10 is fun... it is on super bowl sunday but what the heck. there is a 1/2 marathon and a 5k something for everyone.
    we could do a pr challenge this course is flat...through the park and ending on the great hwy.
