Run The World Gobal Challenge celebrates running around the the world. RTW Challenge 12 started January 1, 2024. Monthly stats will be posted at the end of each month. We will also continue to keep track of miles from when we started as total miles since July 4, 2018. And of course our weekly log starting on Wednesday and finishing on Tuesday. The idea is to run or walk and then log those miles on your My Best Runs account. There is no entry fee. You just need a MBR account - and that’s Free too. After you sign up you log your miles on your account.

It's no fun to sit down and talk about what exercise has to do with life... go drip that sweat, run until we're fatigued, to where the mind can't ponder the past or the future, well, then you've got something... It's fun to feel healthy, and it's fun to feel good. (Mon 6)6.41 miles in Stanford and Los Altos (runner profile)
Got in some more miles. Traveling to Mexico on Tuesday so I wanted to bank some miles today. Want to hit 60 for week ending Tues. Need 10 more but most likely Tuesday could just be a few. (Sun 5) / Total Miles 11,364.05 since 7/4/181.73 miles in Santo Domingo Oeste (DO) (runner profile)
Walked to pay the annual tax for the car. First time I did that, somebody else has done it for me here in past years. It was kind of tricky to figure out the process without knowing much Spanish. There were two lines, one line people had queue numbers and the other did not. Some people were paying huge stacks of 2,000 peso bills so i think maybe that office makes loans or something? So they would call a number at the Caja which is the teller at the bank, and randomly call for Marbete which is what they call the car tag tax so someone in that line would go. Took over hours to wait. I think they started doing it online so i'll try that next year. They deliver it I guess, there is no such thing as mail service here.

Running has always been a relief and a sanctuary – something that makes me feel good, both physically and mentally. For me it’s not so much about the health benefits. Those are great, but I believe that the best thing about running is the joy it brings to life. (Sat 21)5.02 miles in Stanford (runner profile)
