Default Ultra Challenhe Progress

With Eric being super busy with getting married and all, as well as me taking an excel class, I thought I'd do up a spreadsheet for the challenge (and the practice.) Bear with me; It's not pretty and I think there are discrepancies with Dave and Gregg's totals to date. (Mine as well, but I double checked and my math was off in some post.) Please do me a favor and double check your totals.

Well, I trust Excel's calculator over my mental one. Now I'm even more of a loser in this challenge than I thought.

Since when does one innocuous post about keeping track of someone's own performance turn in to "so many of us not trusting Eric." Dave, are you trying to start something

I can update this for the end of the challenge, but not until the end of the week.

Eric good luck on your marathon. Depending how my weekend turns out I may drive down, get lunch somewhere and catch part of it. Be careful at the finish I heard it can get slippery.
