Master  2232    Des Moines, Iowa |  Subject: Back to School Challenge Anyone?Back to school challenge? Anyone up for a challenge starting on September 1? I've been out of it for awhile and need some accountability. I really don't even care what the challenge is; just need to have a goal. Any ideas? |

Master 2665 The Whites, New Hampshire | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? Yep, up for a running challenge. I need some competitive fire under my arse. Hopefully I'll be back from my unintended time off to hit a challenge full bore by Sept. 1. |

Extreme Veteran 460 | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? I'd be up for a running challenge! Doing a half mary in October and need to get on task. I usually keep putting off training and end up doing it with about a couple of 4 milers under my belt. The legs aren't too happy with me for about 4 days after the race is over. If we need to log onto a spread sheet of some sort, it hasn't worked for me, so may need some assistance with someone putting my logged miles in for me |

Member 168 Omaha, NE | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? A running challenge would be perfect for keeping me on task for my October marathon. If we get enough interest, teams are usually a pretty fun way to go. I'm a bit of a spreadsheet dummy, though, so I may not be the best person to organize it! |

| Master 2232 Des Moines, Iowa | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? Sounds like running is the hot item. I agree teams will be fun. I'll start working on something and post a new challenge soon.... I led one of these in the past that was a blast. Hint - Can anyone say "Bannana Slugs" ? |

I was going to post a challenge announcement this weekend, for a swim/bike/run team challenge using the OP's idea of "back to school" for the losing team penalty, but if you want to organize a Sept Run Challenge, that's absolutely fine. Or, if you want me to organize something, instead, that's fine too. Also, I think Cat is going to do an October run challenge. (She likes run challenges in October. I don't know why though!) |

| Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? wgraves7582 - 2008-08-12 11:19 AM Perfect. Falls right in line with my marathon training and the need to keep running up after a bicycling type summer! Teams would be cool if enough people join in. I agree, teams are good. They help "motivate" people. (Or, I can just wave my cattle prod around. That seems to do the trick, too.) |

Why? Do you think that his team is going to beat yours? In that case, I want to be on Shawn's team, not on yours. |

Im happy to not run the october run challenge this year if you want to do one in September instead... Unfortunatley I cant run so Im out of any run challenge anyway!

I guess Id be up for biking of swimming... although for me it would be more of a spring challenge than a back to school challenge Well, we could do a swim/bike/run challenge. And you could opt to do just the biking and swimming, but not the running.... |

| Master 2665 The Whites, New Hampshire | Subject: RE: Back to School Challenge Anyone? No, we can do a run challenge in September AND October!! Has anyone here figured out my weak sport?  I'm down for teams and some vicious claw-bearing, hair-ripping, screeching competition. Or, um, you know, whatever. |
