| Expert 882 Fort Bragg | Subject: RE: Run Challenge / Feb? It sounds like we've got interest. I'll put it together if someone tells me how. I think pride, high fives and smack talking should be the rewards. |

Extreme Veteran 311 Somerville | Subject: RE: Run Challenge / Feb? I totally agree and fortunately for me, these are three of my favorite things. Fort Knox? Nice. I spent some years at Fort Bragg (and Camp Hovey Korea too). How long have you been there? |

| Expert 882 Fort Bragg | Subject: RE: Run Challenge / Feb? Absolutely. I think we should modify the swim rules. The winner will be based upon % completed towards your goal. So, for example, you have a walk/run goal of 20 miles for the month and you make 19 miles. That's 95%. You will have outperformed someone who had a goal of 100 running miles and only ran 80 because it's only 80%. chipit muffin - 2006-01-22 7:09 PM Can i participate even if i'm still on a walk/run regimen? |

| Expert 882 Fort Bragg | Subject: RE: Run Challenge / Feb? Hmm.. I think we can make that work. I don't see why you can't make a time goal. We'll have to find some standard ratio so we can determine winning teams. How about an assumption that 10 minutes = 1 mile. (It makes the math easy). For example, 3 people are on a team. 1&2 pledge 40 miles each. #3 pledges 200 minutes. The team sum would be a 100 mile goal. piggpen35 - 2006-01-22 7:46 PM Sounds awesome!

| Cycling Guru 15134 Fulton, MD | Subject: RE: Run Challenge / Feb? Time challenge could be a lot more lopsided. If you have someone who runs 12's and decides on 100 minutes, then they get a ten mile goal and are graced with lower than their actual mileage based on the 10 min/mile standard, but to someone like me that runs 7's and 8's then 100 minutes is much more than ten miles ..... I would think it needs to be mileage based myself. |

For example, 3 people are on a team. 1&2 pledge 40 miles each. #3 pledges 200 minutes. The team sum would be a 100 mile goal. Nah, just let the goal be time rather than distance. If I pledge 200 minutes and I run 200 minutes, (at any pace) I've met my goal. Since I'm trying to work on zone-based training, and mixing up my runs with different (read unknown distance) routes, I wouldn't want to venture what a time to distance conversion would be. This should also vary depending on the intensity of the run. |
