Master 1952 Guelph, Ontario | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Hey Scott with the challenge you put forth for yourself you would have a lot to do with that alone. Life certainly has a way of getting in the way of training  |

Master 1952 Guelph, Ontario | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Last day of the challenge. Amost everyone is in Paris already. Scott has the minutes and just needs 2 stages to complete. 2 X 15 minute rides will complete that. Roni just 1 stage left of 6.5 miles Jeni just 1 stage 7 points required Michele. I am not sure if I have entered all your stages. Could you confirm to me and I will make sure it is up to date. The chart has you at 9 stages @ 206.5 miles Patricia, The google doc is showing you as having completed 9 of 10 stages. I think if I remember correctly that the stages count for 1/2 the total and the distance/time count for the other 50%. There must be something wrong with the formulae as it does show you as being over 100%. Kenny. Nice going a couple of extra stages completed. Robyn didn't you have a tri yesterday. How did it go? Heidi, also great work throwing in the extra stage for the team. Let's finish this off. We can do it as a team adn all be in Paris together GO TEAM COLUMBIA GO!!!!!!!!!! (I would have put that in great big red letters but I haven't figured out how to do that yet.) |

Champion 14677 Bronze member | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Hey team, I just checked and we are in the lead, but just barely. No, I didn't have a tri yesterday. I did have a 5K run. Thanks for asking. I did so-so and really need to figure this stuff out fast. My first tri will be in September and right now I am very discouraged with my progress. I also need to get in the water but the lake is not swimmable now due to algae bloom and no pools with in range. We need rain! Have great rides all and we will save champagne for all! |

Master 1952 Guelph, Ontario | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Thanx Michele. Have updated the information. Robin. Hope that water clears up for you. How long is the swim in your Sept tri? |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread The TdF Challenge will be over soon. So how are you going to stay motivated NEXT month? Interested in another challenge? There is a "Casual Challenge" planned for August. You can set goals for RUNNING and/or SWIMMING and/or BIKING and/or OTHER (strength, yoga, etc) and/or WEIGHT LOSS. (You may sign up for ANY or ALL of these goals.) There will be no teams (unless we get a lot of people signing up, then I'll split the group). It's just a friendly challenge to help people achieve their workout and weightloss goals.

I think if I remember correctly that the stages count for 1/2 the total and the distance/time count for the other 50%. There must be something wrong with the formulae as it does show you as being over 100%. Yes, stages count 50% and distance/time count 50%. Because my stages was 45% complete and time was 56% complete, it calculated to over 100% even though only 9 of 10 was complete as of yesterday. In any case, I completed my last stage today, and now is 119%. Team Columbia Rocks!!! |

Champion 26509 Sydney | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Hi Team, Just a reminder this is the final day of the TDF challenge - I hope everyone has enjoyed themselves There has been a little confusion over how the final results will be calculated so from the original thread with the challenge rules here are the details : "The winning team will be determined by the overall % of goal amount of stages and % of distance/time achieved by the team. (each goal counts for 50% of your overall goal achieved)" What this means is you cannot achieve more than 50% from with of your totals... I havent had any requests for clarification sent to me but i thought I better just remind everyone! Results will be up in the next couple of days, so just make sure your team spreadsheet is up to date Cat |

Extreme Veteran 665 Vancouver, British Columbia | Subject: RE: Columbia Team Thread Ok, I am ready to ride on some flat roads for a while!!! Did my last stage today and it felt great! Went out with a friend and we raced some cars around Stanely Park, flew up some big inclines in North Vancouver, sailed down some hills and while we didn't have croissants... we did have the best donuts in the vancouver area And my friend is admittedly weak on hills so it was fun dropping him pretty badly on each and every one It looks like we have all made it Paris!! Congrats!!! and Team Columbia has finished strong and will be primed for funding and support for next year which is awesome!!! CONGRATS TEAM!!! |
