Hey, folks! Looks like I'm a late entry onto your team. I hesitated at first -- I love walking but I'm terrible at logging my miles. I've got to improve this year!

Brief intro, I'm Wendy (getnthinr) and have only been a WISHer for about 2 years but I've been a marathoner for almost 10 -- about 30 marathons to my credit to date, most during 2000 when I decided, "Gee, it's a new millenium, I should do something really cool like walk a marathon a month." And fool that I am, with the loving support of my family, I DID IT!

This is me during Goofy 2008

This is me during Goofy 2007

I'm so excited!!!!

to Buzz's Brigade. We're so glad to have you.

Keeping track of the miles is hard for me to do to. I try and sign on and do it as soon as I get done so I don't forget.

Ok, Kathy, I'm gonna try and walk you through this.

You should have gotten a pm with the image, thanks to Space Ranger (I don't know your real name, sorry)

Highlight that picture, then right click your mouse, and click on properties.

Highlight everything that is in that line, and right click again and click on Copy

Then go to your User CP, and click on edit signature.

Then go to the end of the line of your Tough Guy pic. It will end with [/IMG]

Click on the little mountain icon up at the top. It's the next to last one.

It will pop up a window that starts with http:// - then right click again, and click on paste. Once entered, click OK.

Now click on preview Signature, and make sure it looks the way you want it.

Hope that helps! If not, send me a pm.

Hi Wendy! I'm Sandi, but I have the nickname of Allie on these boards, so call me whatever you want to. Welcome to Buzz's Brigade. I am impressed at your accomplishments. I just did my third 5K in AK with my 9 yo daughter. We ended up walking the whole thing because she was feeling sick to her stomach the whole first mile, and saying she was gonna puke. Well, she didn't and we ended up having a lovely time, and enjoyed the journey together.

I keep up with my miles in an Excel Spreadsheet. Now I am going to have to add a column for time too. I am also tracking my weight loss. I am a WW lifetime member losing my weight for the third time. Third times a charm ya' know.

Oh and team, if you look on the bios thread at twotwohappy (Liz's) post of the group shot. Me and my dd are on the front row. (right side) I may send her a pm and ask if I can "borrow" that pic.


Go Buzz's Brigade!! We're moving to Infinity and Beyond!

 

[Valentine]

Welcome Wendy!! Again!!

Yay.. it's almost time everyone.. get in that couch time now... while ya can!!

Hi, everyone! Taking a quick moment out of what has been the most insanely busy week of my career to say 'hi" and thanks to John for doing the awesome graphic! Very cool!

My introduction: I joined the WISH team in January 2005 after my 4th heart surgery. I started by walking on the TM very very slowly and for very short periods of time. A year and a day after my surgery, I finished the WDW 1/2 marathon and the next two years, finished the WDW full. I have also done the Disneyland Inaugural 1/2 marathon, the Chicago Distance Classic, two Minnie 15ks and too many 5ks to remember.

I've lost about 70 pounds over the past 3 years but have another 35-40 to go. UGH! I keep saying 2008 is the year I will get to my goal weight, but here it is the end of January and I am feeling like I blew the month. I am hoping my competitive spirit will kick in and I'll get on the ball. I'm usually pretty good about getting to the gym 3x/week. Anything beyond that is a bonus for me.

Here I am a few weeks ago with my marathon medal (the gorgeous young woman in the picture is our daughter, Jenn, who is the sweetest Goofy cheerleader in the world! and the gorgeous guy is DH, Howard, also known as keenho). Missing from the picture is our DS14, Andrew, who really missed seeing all the WISH team this year, and most especially Miss Anne, Carrie & Judy:

Planning to be at the gym a LOT this weekend in the hopes of helping our team surge forward to infinity and beyond!

BTW, Sandi/Allie, are you willing to share your spreadsheet? I still haven't figured out how to create one. Wouldn't it be awesome for us all to be tracking our miles & hours very carefully and for our team leaders to have a spreadsheet to dump the numbers into?

 

[WDWFAN9]

Gorgeous picture Cam!

I can't wait to get started....to infinity and beyond!

Hmmm.. wonder WHO took that Pic??? I have the VERY Same one on my Camera.. Gee.. wonder how THAT happened!!

Pat.. I have requested your name be added as a captain to have access to the spreadsheets also... I think you were missed in error on that thread...

Kathy

 

[goofyinohio]

Cam, I love the picture. Great shot Kathy!

I'm ready to get this started. I think I will have to do more cross training this year as my running isn't going to be enough to help this team win!

 

[getnthinr]

OK, is there a thread with rules somewhere? I must have missed that discussion -- Sorry!

Stuff like how often we report and whether everything counts (gardening, or yardwork, or whatever) or just cycling, walking, running, etc. I guess we count miles for running/walking and time for everything else? Or do we keep up with both for everything?

My DH says I can make anything complicated! Sorry!

Hi everyone,

It looks like I got lucky and was able to join your team. I love that we are hooked up with Buzz. We are redecorating my son's bedroom and I just started taking his Buzz wall paper boarder down yesterday (sniff, sniff). He is growing up! Anyway, it was great to have Buzz in my life still!

I will post an intro soon, but I just wanted to stop in and say "hi". Thanks for letting me join your team!

Looking forward to Goofy 09!

TTFN!

YIKES! So that means that I have to actually DO SOMETHING tomorrow?!?!?

(LOL - Just joking!) This is EXACTLY what I need to get motivated.

Lot's of snow on the ground so will probably hit the treadmill. Is there a thread for rules/posting ect?

Thanks,
Jill

 

[keenercam]

Kathy -- You have an extra http in the siggie code. If you take that out, it should show up

 

[aldisneygrl]

Kathy - Now you have two Tough Guys!

Put this code in: http://www.ryanworld.net/wdwinfo/team2/team2bsig.jpg and then put the

at the end, and you should have it!

My DH says I can make anything complicated! Sorry!

Any kind of exercise counts towards the minutes. Only walking, running, swimming, etc. counts towards the miles. So keep up with both. I will go look for the "rules". I think they are on the rosters thread.
