LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[Kona2]

We're in countdown mode now for the Holiday Challenge. No time like now to start building your meter base - especially if you are thinking of going for the 200K level and the Holiday Challenge pin! Of course, some of you can just knock out a 10K without any special planning since you've been doing this for like ages....for the rest of us, adding a 1000 m a day or every couple of days is a good amount...

Season meters as of 200/365 = 43,178,873 m

Total meters on the day = 191,353 m

Some golfing friends and I are going to do our best to prove that you can indeed golf in every month of the year in the Denver area. Last year, due to course conditions, flooding and some snow, we weren't able to get November and December into the mix at all. So, as November was winding down, the call went out yesterday to say "c'mon, let's get nine holes in today" for the Challenge. There were still some patches of snow here and there on fairways, and in some of the bunkers. And there was ice on the ponds...
