Alright, Dopey Challenge results are in!  Let's see how it all shook out, using part of my page 4 post:

Results-jimbo.jpg.67875267fe5d7eae92d4e16ed2d1a4c3.jpg

(I will post much more detail about the whole experience in my journal, hopefully sometime in the next few days.)

Original goal times
5k – 37:30  :headbang:

10k – 1:15:00  :headbang:
Half – 2:30:00  (Scratched on account of Disney shortening the course to 7.1 miles)  :violin:
Full – 5:00:00  (tsk)  (as I noted in my journal, I'll use my unofficial time to eliminate recreation stops.  Strava has my unofficial time at 5:35:04)

Total allotted moving time that I've given myself is 9 hours, 22 minutes, and 30 seconds 6 hours, 52 minutes, 30 seconds (half marathon removed).  

Here again is my original pledge, all proceeds to Jimbo, a friend of Jesus (thumbsu.

- $2 per mile, which I’ll round up to a total of $100 when all miles are completed.  
     (even with the 1/2er cut short, still $100.  We calculated that we walked between 2-3 miles to and from the car per day.  Add park time on top of that, and we covered much more than 48.6 miles in 4 days)
- $50 per time goal met  
     ($100, 2 of 4 original goals met)
- $100 if I come in under my total allotted moving time
     ($50.  Though I didn't beat my allotted time, I'm still adding $50 more because of how well the marathon went - good mood, no injuries, no cramps, and I still set a race day pr for the half marathon)

Ultimately I didn't hit the $400 max, but that's $250 to @jimjum12 as soon as possible.  :highfive:


@Beige - The modified official distance comes out to 42.6 miles, so take that into account however you'd like when settling up.

Was I the only one 'sponsoring' you?

 

 

Please let me know where to send payment as I haven't really been following due to work.

I put up the complete GOT series on Blu-ray and was able to raise some money for Jim thanks to Captain Spaulding. 

Let's try another set! 

FOR SALE - BATTLESTAR GALACTICA - COMPLETE SERIES ON DVD (780P resolution) 

CONDITION - BRAND NEW IN SHRINK WRAP! 

COST - $25 (all money goes to Jim. Shipping on me). 

*List price is $45. I know that the same set is currently available on Amazon for $19 shipped, but that money wouldn't help out Jim. I've priced this as competitively as possible. 

Stock image. I'm at work and can't access the set to take a pic. Rest assured, it's brand new and shrink wrapped. The exact same condition provided by Amazon.
