SEPTEMBER Novice+Beginners SUPER CHALLENGE [415 runner so far]

Yes, I'm back. Holiday season is almost over - so we are just in time to kick off the

« September Beginners Challenge »

This is a motivational challenge - if you want to win this, you might be wrong here. There is a weekly cap of 20mi/32km which I will enforce by promoting better runners to the intermediates level (=kicking from this challenge). Of course you won't get kicked for running more in one week to make up for a late start or if you ask (politely) beforehand.
I've increased the cap slightly to catch some of those poor "in between beginner and intermediates"

How to apply
respond to this thread and tell us
- your Nike+ ID (case sensitive!) or eMail
- your expected weekly average
- which month I shall sign you up for

Happy Running!!!

PLEASE NOTE:
For any requests (like extensions on the weekly limit) please leave a note on the corresponding blog page. Stuff like that will be dealt with on a personal "depending on the issue" basis.

PLEASE NOTE:
This month there's a new feature: the invincible list. as mentioned before some of us are training for the Einstein (half) Marathon. Those and anyone that's been running with us for a while and that's asking nicely (with adequate reason) will get exempt from kicking. as is written above, this will be decided on a personal basis.
I've elaborated a bit more here:

PLEASE NOTE:
I took the click-to-enter-the-challenge-widget off again, because with it being public some fellows thought they could enter and ignore the rules... sorry folks - please respond to the thread in the usual way and you'll be invited.
