I plan on running 6:00/miles for 500 miles on the last day to take the overall lead.
No one will suspect a thing.

Man, I'm not sure that is a good idea. While I'm no expert, from what I have read on pretty much EVERY SINGLE PAGE of this thread increasing your mileage by 500% in one day is probably not a good idea. I'm glad this warning is conveyed to us in every third post of this thread because I'm sure no one has ever heard of this crazy concept before. Jesus people, give it a break. Most people on here are adults and will run what they want, eat what they want and drive over the speed limit if they want. Most people who are able to make it to Slowtwitch, register for access to Slowtwitch, register for the challenge and find this thread have the inherent ability to conceptualize the possible ramifications for their behavior and then make decisions about how much to run or not to run, whether to eat the entire jar of nutella in one sitting, or drive over the speed limit and all the warnings from the self proclaimed experts in the world will not change their mind.
How about instead of all the rambling pontification every third post in this thread a common message is used, like an autotext stating:
"Run too much, Run too often or Run too fast and you might get hurt"
