Even if you’re just a beginner, this challenge is for you. The point is easy: run 12 races in the year of 2012. Any distance counts. Just get out there and run an organized race with other runners. Then enter your data in the link below titled “Race Tracker” and submit proof of the race at the link titled “Race Proof.” Complete the challenge and earn a chance to win an awesome fitness prize. Stick around for the whole year, and let’s help encourage each other. Happy running to all in the year of 2012!</description><title>12 Races in 2012</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @crossthefinishline2012)</generator><link>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>I will be announcing a winner this weekend. </title><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve been working nonstop this year, along with tons of stuff for the house we are purchasing in a few weeks. I will get to the winner of the crossthefinishline2012 this weekend, along with a final tally of races. Please bear with me as I try to get everything in order this new year. Being on top of things was obviously not my new year resolution. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/40639481135</link><guid>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/40639481135</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Jan 2013 18:29:27 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>Just a few more days, everyone. </title><description>&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#8217;t know about you, but I&amp;#8217;m celebrating my accomplishments in 2012. Personally I didn&amp;#8217;t make the 12 race goals, but I know a few of you did. There is still one weekend left in 2012 to get any final races in and &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&amp;amp;formkey=dEZSYVlsVnFiRE5Ob3VicHNfVWJQdUE6MQ#gid=0"&gt;submit any more races you need to into the form&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I compiled a list of all the submissions:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Queenbliss.tumblr.com - 18 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Healthybuddha.tumblr.com - 13 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Jenereesa.tumblr.com - 12 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1milemarathoner.tumblr.com - 10 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sherunsforsanity.tumblr.com - 3 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Mariadoeslife.tumblr.com - 2 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pleasedontyouforget.tumblr.com - 2 races&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Dejaderp.tumblr.com - 1 race&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Getfitmadison.tumblr.com - 1 race&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Glutastic.tumblr.com - 1 race&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tabathab.tumblr.com - 1 race&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;If this total is incorrect, &lt;strong&gt;it is your responsibility to message me to let me know&lt;/strong&gt; AND &lt;strong&gt;make sure you add to the form&lt;/strong&gt;. These are all the races that were submitted to me. I will be checking again next week after January 1. I will not be accepting any changes after that time. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also if you changed your URL during the year you need to let me know if you submitted with your old URL and your new URL. 1milemarathoner is the only person I know of who has done this, but I feel like others did this as well. It&amp;#8217;s not a big deal if you did as long as you let me know. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There will be one grand prize (I will draw a winner out of those who completed the 12 races in 2012). But the rest of you who completed the goal will receive a little token as well. More on the prizes after January 1. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So you have a few days to get any last submissions in.&lt;/strong&gt; Remember that I still need some sort of proof (a photo, a URL to a blog post, a screen shot of your finish time, etc.), but you all have been great about doing that all year. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2012 is coming to an end. Remember to celebrate all that you accomplished no matter how big or small. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/38972856373</link><guid>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/38972856373</guid><pubDate>Thu, 27 Dec 2012 14:13:00 -0600</pubDate><category>crossthefinishline2012</category><category>queenbliss</category><category>healthybuddha</category><category>jenereesa</category><category>1milemarathoner</category><category>sherunsforsanity</category><category>mariadoeslife</category><category>pleasedontyouforget</category><category>dejaderp</category><category>getfitmadison</category><category>glutastic</category><category>tabathab</category></item><item><title>Healthybuddha's 13 Race...in the Bahamas!</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img height="500" src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdv89xO9Og1r1hkkio1_500.jpg" width="500"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/36253660299</link><guid>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/36253660299</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 Nov 2012 20:08:10 -0600</pubDate><category>crossthefinishline2012</category><category>submission</category></item><item><title>Superhero 5k - Cambridge, MA - 11 of 12</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcs7ikKP231qgom4qo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

In no particular order, here are the participants and the order of races they have logged into &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&amp;amp;formkey=dEZSYVlsVnFiRE5Ob3VicHNfVWJQdUE6MQ#gid=0"&gt;the worksheet&lt;/a&gt;. You can &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AquNWUOgJ1bLdEZSYVlsVnFiRE5Ob3VicHNfVWJQdUE&amp;amp;hl=en_US#gid=0"&gt;view this information&lt;/a&gt; for yourself anytime. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://1milemarathoner.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://1milemarathoner.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;6 races&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://dejaderp.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://dejaderp.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;1 race&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://getfitmadison.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://getfitmadison.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;1 race&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://healthybuddha.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://healthybuddha.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;10 races&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://glutastic.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://glutastic.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;1 race&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://jenereesa.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://jenereesa.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;8 races&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://mariadoeslife.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://mariadoeslife.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;2 races&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://queenbliss.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://queenbliss.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; -&lt;strong&gt; 9 races&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://tabathab.tumblr.com/"&gt;http://tabathab.tumblr.com/&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;strong&gt;1 race&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;These are all the working URL&amp;#8217;s. Some URL&amp;#8217;s who have posted races no longer exist. If you&amp;#8217;re one of the blogs that has submitted race info, but changed your URL just let me know and I&amp;#8217;ll add you to the list. Also, check and make sure I counted right. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From now on make sure you enter your URL in the same every time. Just copy and paste your whole URL into the form. The worksheet organizes everything based on what you said your Tumblr URL was, so if they&amp;#8217;re not uniform it makes things very difficult for me. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember that you don&amp;#8217;t have to finish the challenge, but those who do will be eligible for a cool prize at the end of the year. A few people are getting awfully close!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One more thing: don&amp;#8217;t forget to submit your race photos/other proof through the submission link on this page. We all want to see your smiling faces!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy running, everyone!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/27052979347</link><guid>http://crossthefinishline2012.tumblr.com/post/27052979347</guid><pubDate>Thu, 12 Jul 2012 10:23:00 -0500</pubDate><category>crossthefinishline2012</category></item><item><title>You should give us an update to see how far along everyone is!</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I’m on it.
