Welcome to the Running Challenge

Scary, sexy and seemingly human until they have you alone Vampires have enthralled us through film and folklore. Just stay out of the sun and away from wooden stakes! 


Your team line up is: 

  1. Bajapat
  2. CathyD
  3. Christris
  4. CoackH
  5. DoloresM2
  6. HCS5QA
  7. Jchrsitoff
  8. Melhndi
  9. Miche033
  10. Shawn Barr

Please introduce yourself to your team below with your goals for the challenge and running in general, what they are training for as well as names and any other general info. 

You will also need to nominate/select/volunteer a Team Leader whose role will be to collect the commitments for each runner and collect your team results every Monday.

Your running time must be logged in your BT Log for verification purposes, but you are responsible for reporting your weekly results to your Team Leader on Mondays, this is done by posting an update in your team thread in the challenges forum unless the team prefers another method. 

Attached to this post is an excel excel spreadsheet to be used by the Team Leader for your team tracking and should be sent to me on Tuesdays AM so I can get an challenge update post in the forum by Wednesday each week. The spreadsheet includes the details of any team members who have already made a challenge commitment.

I will be maintaining a Team Leaders thread for any queries, questions etc so if there are any problems please let me know. 

This is a team competition so please support your team mates with inspires, motivation and encouragement as well as pledge your allegiance in your sig line, log and even avatar!

Good natured sledging and competition with the other teams is part of the fun so feel free to stir up a bit of friendly rivalry, 

Most importantly this is all about fun and you reaching your goals!!!!

So…time to get running! Let the challenge begin!!

Alright this should be fun and even more motivation, just what we all need. Hey I even like our team name, Vampires "we're out for blood". My goal is still 40 in keeping with my plan for a first sprint on Nov 25th. Good luck everyone.

Good morning fellow Vamps,

I'm in for 60 this month.  It'll be a stretch for me (only did 41 last month).

Go team Vampires!

Go team Vampires!



80 is going to be almost double my best month. So we are in the same boat of having a stretch goal. We can do it!

Thoughts on a team captain?

Hi everyone.  I have a goal of 75 miles for the month.  I'd wanted to run a fall half marathon but all the local ones are on days I have to work.  So I'm stictly base building for the next few months.  I've been slow to recover from my last triathlon ( on Sept. 4) but hoping I can start some more consistent training now. 

I can't offer to captain the team but will try to inspire/support my teammates whenever I can.   LET'S WIN THIS CHALLENGE !!!!!!

Cathy, your avatar is sick!

I'm a swimmer...like a fish on land.  But I'm determined to face my fears and become a runner.  I just downloaded the half-mary plan!  And I need to find a race.

I'm in for 44.4 miles-and I'm determined to be injury-free.  Let's all make a commitment to stretch.

Good afternoon, all.

I come from a swimming background, so this running thing is a kick in the rear. Got to get motivated since a good friend of mine registered me for the Las Vegas Half Marathon. So got to get out and get going with running this month.

Let's get them, and hopefully win this challenge.

Hey Vamps!  I'm currently training for my upcoming fall race season with my A race being a 5mi on Thanksgiving.  I'm up for 35 miles and remaining injury free. 

Last race Swim 74 overall, Bike 64 Overall, Run 185 Overall... I'll be running because clearly I suck at it and have plenty of room to improve.

You have my vote so far, thanks for getting this started. Nice slow start with 3 miles yesterday towards my 40. I see no problem completing them and maybe a few extra.

JChristoff,

    I concur also, you are the team Captain. As I travel a lot, it's hard to place my name in the hat, as I don't always have internet where I go.

Let's go get them, and make sure that we win this one. I sure don't want to stick my butt on the challenge.
