Head2Head Challenge - Week 38

Fartlek Fun Runners	vs.	Tortoises and Hares	(49.9)
RUM Runners	vs.	MileManiaX	(-14.5)
Tramps Like Us	vs.	Kiss My Asics	(18.1)
Heart and Sole	vs.	Outrunning Insanity	(-51)

Note: The number in () represents the point spread, which is the difference between the first and second team. Ex: If the spread is (15), the first team is favored to win by 15 pts. If the spread is negative, the second team is favored to win.

Plucked Once Too Many Times

As you all are quite aware, Runner's World has upgraded the forum software (Pluck 4.0). This affects me greatly as the 2010in2010 Club Administrator, as I rely heavily on the forums to gather and publish the members' running data.

While there are a few new features, there are some significant losses in functionality and performance. Key among these is having lost the ability to track key threads for this Club, especially those like the "Nag List" that I recycle and the Weekly Post 'Em threads. I also try to follow the team threads and stay up-to-date on any problems or questions you all have. There are also contest threads and some of last year's Club threads that I reference as well. I probably had over 30 threads saved that are now inaccessible.

Additionally, I am finding it cumbersome to use the "Reply" and "Start a New Discussion" functions there since the input forms are all bungled up (see my reply to Kevin in the RW.com forum).

The bottom line is this: If these issues are not resolved in one week (which was Kevin Knabe's suggestion for the length of time that we allow to get used to the upgrade), I will be leaving the RWOL forums and will be resigning my role as 2010in2010 Club Admin.

If anyone has suggestions on how we can continue the Club outside this forum, I will be more than happy to investigate them. I will update the 2010in2010 Blog with as much information as possible for your use. [An aside: I am looking at the possibility of porting the entire Club - including posting miles and reporting all results - RIGHT HERE IN THE BLOG].

I hope I don't have to leave, but life is too short to be dealing with this. I am really proud of what the Club has become and am glad that it has been a source of inspiration and camaraderie for you all.

With Regards,

Glenn

Week 34 Results

Hey Club! Latest Individual and Head2Head results have been posted; see the link on the right. We're making really good progress and are continuing to reduce our mileage deficit as a Club (just over 7,100 miles right now). We're getting close to recording 150,000 miles, too! We're getting very close to seeing our first batch of members reach their annual goals already. I think a couple of them will hit it next week, maybe three. Y'all keep your eyes open and be sure to congratulate them! Take Care, Glenn
