Hey Nancy - looking good - you can go on to Check In - Checkpoint Three

[Ceroth]

Checking out of Checkpoint Two and checking in to Checkpoint Three. Didn't read nearly as much as I had hoped to read this period.

[Bentley, Group Founder, Leader, Chief]

I understand - it sometimes works out that way. But you are still early and there is plenty of more good reading time left so on to Checkpoint Three. Make sure your template has all of the necessary parts.

[Bentley, Group Founder, Leader, Chief]

Even the West Coast and the Pacific Timezone should be done with Checkpoint Two.

French Polynesia and Hawaii have an hour to go so folks from these two places could check in to the readathon for the first time before 4PM.

Template Needs More Information - just needs some updates or weeks and then I can move it to the successful column - needs required template info or some quick fixes

2. Fiona - template needs help - message 22 - check Michael's in message 34 and copy his template segments and just add your information

Folks check this list and make sure you are on it - if I missed you let me know and I will check the thread and add your name. It is unintentional.

Jarrad, Fiona and Marc just look at missing parts/fixes and add them. And then you will be A-OK - there are two required templates used - one for Checkpoints 1 through 6 and the second required template used for the mandatory check out which is Checkpoint 7

[Bentley, Group Founder, Leader, Chief]

This checkpoint is done timewise all over the world.
