ONE CONTINUOUS YEAR!




Well, I'm excited that I made it an entire year, but I'm really disappointed by Wii Fit's lack of special recognition of my acheivement!

Oh well, it's been a great, exciting year anyway! I've lost around fifty pounds. I completed ten marathons, two half marathons, and several 5 and 10K races. I logged over 500 hours on Wii Fit, 234 of which were on my elliptical machine, representing 540 miles (according to it's display, which I think underestimates mileage by at least 50%). I've met lots of great people. Because of my marathon treks, I've visited five states I'd never been to before ... Wisconsin, Utah, Montana, Idaho, and Washington (only ran a marathon in three of them, though). My borderline high cholesterol became solidly normal with a much more favorable LDL/HDL profile.

All told, an outstanding year!

500 HOURS OF WII FIT!




I logged my 500th hour on Wii Fit today ... hurray! I was hoping I'd get to 500 before my 52nd week of continuous daily use arrived!

Me & My Favorite Marathoner




I met my favorite marathoner last month in Roanoke, VA. Sarah Palin ran Humpy's Marathon in Anchorage, AK in 3 hours, 59 minutes. That's awesome! A forty-something year old woman with five kids kicking butt and taking names!

FIFTY WEEKS!




Only two more weeks until it's been one continuous year of Wii Fit! I'm wondering if Nintendo has programmed in a special sequence to mark such a happening or whether it will simply note "52 weeks".

I'm also approaching another landmark ... five hundred hours! I'm currently around twenty-plus hours to go. In Wii Fit, there is a "piggy bank" that stores all the hours you've used it. After twenty hours, your bank turns bronze. Complete twenty hours and it's silver. Reach forty hours and you're rewarded with a gold piggy bank. There are rumors of a platinum piggy bank, but he's yet to show before 475 hours. I think it's just urban legend.
