Han Van Meegerin
0-24,999

Han Van Meegerin, Tal Baldo, Magena Fawn, Khalia Bentson, Melanie Gibson and Karen Zakavak

December 31, 2009-Final Results

Tal Baldo wins going away. Han Van Meegerin was a distant 2nd and Khalia Bentson nosed out Magena Fawn for 3rd plac.

December 29, 2009

This race is the Tal Baldo race. She has led from the start. Quite frankly she is smoking the competition. Han Van Meegerin is 2nd about 13,000 page views behind. Khalia Bentson and Magena Fawn are battling for 3rd place with Khalia holding a slight lead.

December 21, 2009

Tal Baldo continues to do dominate this race. She expands her lead with each passing day. She has about double the page views of all others in her field. Han Van Meegerin is barely out dueling Magena Fawn in their joust for second place. Khalia, Karen and Melanie are still with well within striking distance for second or third place.

December 13, 2009

This one is still all about Tan Baldo. She now leads the field by over 6,200 page views. Han Van Meegerin is anchored in 2nd place and Magena Fawn has bounced from 6th place to 3rd. Khalia, Karen and Melanie are 4th, 5th and 6th respectively. They are all within 115 page views of each other.

December 9, 2009

Tal Baldo is making quite the statement as she puts over 4,000 page views between herself and the competion. I think she is starting to look like a candidate for a Rising Star Award. The rest of the pack are all within 300 page views of each other. Han Van Meegerin currently edges out Khalia Bentson for 2nd place.

25,000-52,999

Nancy Canfield, Dan Reveal, Pattie Byrd, Karen Jurewicz and Sherri Thornhill

December 31, 2009-Final Results

For good measure, Pattie Byrd tacked on a few more page views to her lead. Nancy Canfield was 2nd behind by about 10,000 page views. Dan Reveal nailed down the 3rrd spot, but was about 11,000 behind.

December 29, 2009

Patti Byrd has put down the Nancy Canfield insurrection. She now leads Nancy by over 9,000 page views. Nancy looks like she will hang on to 2nd places and Dan Reveal seems to have a firm grip on 3rd place.

December 21, 2009

Patti Byrd's lead has shrunk a bit. Her closest competitor is none other than that straight and sober, Nancy Canfield. Nancy has churned out many an article and now trails Patti by a bit over 5,100 page views. Dan Reveal is now in third place and about 6,400 page views behind. Karen Jurewicz and Sherri Thornhill are well within view of both Dan and Nancy.

December 13, 2009

Pattie Byrd extends her lead to over 6,700 page views. Dan Reveal has jumped from 3rd to 2nd place. I hear Nancy is still sober and she holding her in own in 3rd place. Karen and Sherri are in 4th and 5th places respectively.

December 9, 2009

Pattie Byrd leads her race by over 2,400 page views. The rest of the racers are all within 800 page views of each other. Dan Reveal is in 2nd place. Dan Reveal is in 3rd place, trailing Dan by 28 page views.

53,000-99,999

Jennifer Budd, Jolynne Hudnell, M.G. Hardiman, John Myers, Shelly Barclay, Linda Louise Johnson, and Janet Hunt

December 31, 2009-Final Results

We have a friendly rivalry in the making here. Jolynne Hudnell led from start to finish. However, when the final page views were tabulated she only beat Jennifer Budd only 54 page views. Jennifer was gaining most days down the stretch, but in the end she just couldn't overtake Jolynne. Jennifer can consider herself a winner with her 2nd place finish. M.G. Hardiman comfortably led the rest of the pack and finished about 1,700 page views behind the front runner. If I know M.G. she is laced up and ready to race again.

December 29, 2009

This remains a two person race. Jolynne Hudnell still leads, but Jennifer Budd is now within 891 page views of Jolynne. M.G. "Running shoes" looks like a safe bet for 3rd place.

December 21, 2009

Currently, this looks like a two person race. Jolynne Hudnell and Jennifer Budd ran at about the same pace as last time, but Jolynne leads her by 2,999 page views overall. M.G Hardiman is in 3rd and is off the pace by a tad over 5,900 page views. Shelly, Janet, Linda and John round out the field.

December 13, 2009

Jolynne Hudnell pads her lead just a bit as she is the first racer to get to five digits in page views in this category. Jennifer Budd remains in 2nd place. She is only behind by slightly over 2,900 page views. M.G. "Running Shoes" Hardiman still holds 3rd place. Shelly, Linda, Janet and John all follow in that order.

December 9, 2009

Jolynne Hudnell is the leader here. Jennifer Budd is in 2nd place, trailing by over 2,200 pages. The rest of the crew is off the pace by over 4,000 page views. M.G. Hardiman, who promised to bring her running shoes for this race, holds a narrow lead over the rest of the pack for 3rd place.

100,000-199,999

Patricia Sicilia, Cherie Bowser, Abby Greenhill, Joshua Huffman, Gayle Crabtree and

December 31, 2009-Final Results

Those that watched this race were treated to one of the biggest comebacks in page view race history. Tamara McRill rallied from more than 15,000 page views behind to beat Joshua Huffman by over 2,900 page views. In doing so she claimed her 3rd page view race victory. She remains undefeated in page view racing. Joshua Huffman, though he lost, turned an outstanding performance that included over 81,000 page views in just one. I think Tamara and Joshua just established a friendly rivalry. The rest of the group was bunched together and in a heated battle for 3rd place. Abby Greenhill continued out articles unto the very end and justifiably secured a 3rd place finish for herself.

December 29, 2009

I couldn't have been more right when I warned Joshua that he needed to keep an eye on Tamara McRill. The tables have now been turned in this race and Tamara is in 1st place, leading Joshua 5,933 by page views. Anything can happen here with two days worth of page views to be tabulated. Though far back from the lead; Cherie Bowser, Abby Grenhill and Gayle Crabtree are waging a fierce battle for 3rd place. That is the current order from 3rd place to 5th place, but only about 3,200 page views separates 3rd from 5th places.

December 21, 2009

Tamara McRill continues to chop off page views from Joshua "I need my own race" Huffman. Joshua is still our leader, but Tamara is 2nd place and trails by just 1,636 page views. There is a bit of separation between these two and the rest of racers in this field. Currently, Cherie Bowser is leading the bunch in this regard. There is however a fierce battle shaping up for third place. However, Abby Greenhill trails her by just 2,500 page views. Gayle Crabtree and Patricia Sicilia are in the thick of it.

December 13, 2009

Joshua "I need my own race" Huffman still leads is this race. However, Tamara McRill chopped off about 5,500 page views from Joshua's lead and now trails by a bit over 10,100 page views. Cherie Bowser trails by just under 20,000 page views and is in 3rd place. Abby, Gayle and Patricia are 4th, 5th and 6th places respectively.

December 9, 2009

Joshua Huffman definitely is the one to catch in this race. He shot out of the gates like a bullet. Right now he leads the field by over 15,000 page views. He also went on record, in joking sort of way, that he needs his own race. That may well be true, but he is up against some seasoned racers. In particular he needs to watch out for Tamara McRill. Tamara is a two time winner of page view races. She won the The Race to 50,000 Page Views: #1 and The Race to 100,000 page views: #1. She claims that races bring out the best in her, but only time will tell if it will be enough to catch Joshua Huffman. Cherie Bowser, who is in 3rd place and Patricia Sicilia, Abby Greenhill, Gayle Crabtree and Janet Hunt are also veteran Contributors and Racers who could mount a challenge to Joshua.

200,000-499,999

Victoria Miller, Donald Pennington, Sherry Tomfeld, Roz Zurko, Kofi Bofah, Jennifer Wagner, Josh Tuliano and Julie DuPrey

December 31, 2009-Final Results

Roz Zurko blasted off the starting blocks and never looked back. This was indeed her finest month with Associated Content. She truly showed why deserved to recognized as a "Rising Star". You are not going to lose many races if earn 143,091 page in a month. As I stated before, Victoria Leigh Miller turned a fine performance of her own. It is sad to stand in the shadows with 84,386 page views for the month. Let us say together, "Great job Victoria". There was also a bit of friendly rivalry going for 3rd place with both Joshua Tuliano and Jolie du Prey duking it out. Josh edged her out this time, but only by about 2,700 page views.

December 29, 2009

In first place is Roz Zurko. She produced one solid performance in December. Victoria Leigh Miller also turned in fine effort. She is securely in 2nd place. Josh Tuliano just pasted Jolie du Prey for 3rd place, but Jolie is within about 2,400 page views of Josh.

December 21, 2009

There is no reason to deny Roz Zurko the credit she is due, She is putting for a tremendous month of December. Consider this. She started the December with about 366,000 page views. In December alone she has added 114,589 page views and there is still ten days left. The other contestants in this race are also looking good. Victoria Leigh Miller has put up a bit over 62,000 page views this month. This is good enough for 2nd place. Josh Tuliano and Jolie du Prey are wrestling for 3rd place. Currently, Josh leads her by just 761 page views. Don, Jennifer, Sherri and Kofi at this point seem to be in a race for the 4th place spot.

December, 13, 2009

Roz Zurko now has nearly 91,000 page views in December. She has upped the ante on all of competitors. Victoria Leigh Miller had a nice few days of page views, but still lost ground on Roz. She now trails by over 43,000 page views. Though Leigh lost ground on Roz, she did put some more distance over all others. Josh Tuliano is in in 3rd place. He trails Roz by Victoria by over 21,000 page views and Roz by over 62,000 page views. Jolie is in 4th and she trails Roz by over 65,000 page views. Don, Jennifer, Sherri and Kofi all are off the pace by over 70,000 page views.

December 9, 2009

Roz Zurko has jumped out to over a 30,000 page view lead in this race. She could be tough to catch, but this race has some Contributors that could do just that. In 2nd place is Victoria Leigh Miller. She trails by over 30,000 page views. She can launch a comeback in a big hurry. A comeback to take the lead is exactly what she did in the current Race to 500,000 Page Views: #1. Josh Tuliano is in 3rd place. He is also a great Contributor and a fine Racer. He recently won The Race to 300,000 Page Views. He better jump start his engine if he wants to catch Roz. Jolie du Prey is 4th and Donald Pennington is 5th. Jennifer Wagner, the winner of The Race to 300,000 Page Views: #1 and the leader in the Race to 400,000 Page Views: #1 is in 6th place.

500,000-999,000

Tricia Goss, Rose Elizabeth Kitchen, Shana Dines and Nikki

December 31, 2009-Final Results

Another friendly rivalry definitely took hold here. Tricia Goss led this race for the first 29 days. Unfortunately for her, Rose Elizabeth Kitchen led the race for the last two days. There was only a day or two where these two fine ladies were separated by more 1,000 page views. In the end Rose won it by 878 page views. 3rd place was occupied by Nikki.

December, 29, 2009

This has indeed been a fun race to watch. Before this update, Tricia Goss has led Rose Elizabeth by 1,000 page views or less for I believe all but one day. With this update Rose passed Tricia and leads by 132 page views. Nikki is in 3rd and Shana Dines is in 4th place.

December 21, 2009

This is still a tightly contest race. Tricia leads Rose by 900 page views. As far as I know the lead in this race has never been over 1,000 page views. Nikki passed Shana into 3rd place and trails by 5.696 page views.

December 13, 2009

This race still is up in the air. Tricia added 50 page views to her lead over Rose. She still only leads by 599 page views. Niikki shaved about 500 page views off Tricia's lead. Now she trails by 4,530 page views. Shana is in 4th and is behind Tricia by 5,837.

December 9, 2009

This is a fun little race. I think when it all said and done it may well be a photo finish. Tricia Goss opened up with a slight lead of under 1,000 page views. Rose Kitchen (for short) is right on her heels and she has remained in 2nd place throughout. Nikki is in 3rd and Shana Dines in 4th place. They are just a bit over 3,000 page views behind Tricia.

1,000,000+

Sylvia Cochran, Angel Vee, Charlotte Kuchinski and Carol Bengle Gilbert

December 31, 2009-Final Results

Sylvia Cochran won this one with a wire to wire victory. Give Angel Vee credit as she began mounting a comeback about mid-month. However, Sylvia picked up again and won by over 65,000 page views. Other than Sylvia Cochran, Angel's 186,437 page views were more than any other racer in "The Sprint to 2010" series. Though Charlotte Kuchinski and Carol Gilbert Bengal were not really factors in this race, you have to respect the 82,424 and 54,063 page views that they put up on the board.

12/29/2009

Sylvia Cochran turned in one outstanding performance in December. When she jumped out to 65,000 page view lead, it was clear she would be tough to catch. Let us give Angel Vee some credit. She turned in tremendous December as well and the current time she trails Sylvia by a tad less than 52,000. Charlotte and Carol continue to be off the pace in this race.

12/21/2009

Sylvia is still maintaining her lead. Angel Vee is charging and trails by 51,452 page views. However, time is starting to run short. Charlotte and Carol are a bit off the pace and are in 4th and 5th place respecticvely.

12/13/2009

Syvia Cochran still leads the flock. Angel Vee snipped about 4,000 off the lead. Now she trails by a shade under 65,000 page views. Charlotte and Carol both lost a little ground, but they kept their 3rd and 4th place positions

12/9/2009

Sylvia Cochran always earns a lot of page views, but at about the time this race began, she hit pay dirt with one of her articles and thus took a commanding lead. However, the lead has shrunk a bit. Currently Angel Vee is in 2nd place, trailing by just under 65,000 page views. Charlotte Kuchinski is in 3rd and Carol Bengle Gilbert is 4th. All of these Contributors could erupt at any time with a huge number of page views. Therefore I am not picking any winners just yet.
