Master  2201   Elgin, |  Subject: Air Wingers Team Thread - Nov USMC ChallengeJust a quick reminder of the rules of the challenge. The goal of the challenge is to get 5 workouts of at minimum 30 minutes. The workout does not have to be one straight exercise or done all at once. What this means is as long as you get 30 minutes of exercise in the day it will count for the point. For example, if you run for 15 minutes in the morning and lift wieghts in the evening for 25 minutes for a total of 40 minutes you have enough time to be counted. Each workout that is successfully completed is worth a point. The time periods that you have to complete your workouts and have them counted are Nov 8th, Nov 15th, Nov 22nd, and Nov 30th. I will try to get a spreadsheet up to log the points in. As a bonus you can get one extra point for any two time periods. What this means for you is there is a total of 22 points out of 20 points total. Yes there is a chance to get an extra 10%. The team that gets the most points wins the challenge. The teams are as follows: Air Wingers
Take this time to get to know your teammates as it will take all of you to win the challenge. Good luck and have fun. Update 10/31 Here is a link to your team spreadsheet - Air Wingers Team Thread - Nov USMC Challenge It is in a google spreadsheet the username is btchallenge the password is challenge forum just give a shout if you have any trouble! Let the games begin! Edited by lastcall2003 2008-10-31 1:57 PM |

Reporting for Duty Always wanted to be an AIrman My tri season is pretty much over so I would like to use all that cardio fitness and channel it into faster 10ks and Half marathon's this winter . I am in my fourth year of doing triathlons and think its a great way to stay fit. Winter here in Los Angeles is the best time to run as our weather cools down . Starting the month with a Half Marathon. Plan is to be flexible but include (once a week) long runs , speed workouts , hills and tune up races. Also swim and bike once a week for cross training and recovery. Dismissed

Master 1467 Small Town | Subject: RE: Air Wingers Team Thread - Nov USMC Challenge Hey hey Air Wingers! HooRah! I'm a first season triathlete. Winter is great for indoor training in Michigan, so this is perfect for me to change up on objectives and goals. Here's our lineup UnODir (Unless Otherwise Directed). All the names are already hyperlinked, so double check that I got everyone's right.

Master 2201 Elgin, | Subject: RE: Air Wingers Team Thread - Nov USMC Challenge OK, since the teams are going to be uneven the winner for the challenge will be determined by a percentage instead of most points. I would hate for the team with the most team members win because of the unfair advantage. |

Veteran 157 Rainy WA | Subject: RE: Air Wingers Team Thread - Nov USMC Challenge Hi folks, Well first off, I'm going to have to get a copy of Top Gun. Looks like I'm the only one who hasn't seen it. I'm looking forward to the workouts--burn off some of the Halloween candy that's in the house. I'll check back in tomorrow. Happy Halloween. Mary
