left.right.repeat group -closed - Full of a bunch of winners...YEAH! (Page 104)

Here are a few rules......I will think of a few more as we go to help my team.....smile.

1.  Team captains must post totals a minimum of once a week.  Since we start on a Monday, we will make Sunday the posting deadline....that way we know where the teams are at the beginning of each week.  You can post daily totals but I think many people don't post daily workouts.  You can collect your data any way you want.  PM, email, logs, posts, whatever.

2.  Honor system applies.....and Gary if your team wins I will know you cheated.

3.  The judge and jury is ME....on any dispute....my justice is swift and intentionally unfair.  So the answer is ---- no disputes.

4.  Scoring system is below.  I will accept recommendations (but probably won't change anything).....so really if we need to change something we will.  Keep your raw data so if we need to recalculate, we can.  Any other ideas will be considered for points.  We just want it simple.  I like the HIM point idea so:

1920 meters (that's 1.2 miles, right FBP?) of swimming = 7 points

56 miles of biking = 7 points

13 miles of running = 7 points

Totals post cumulatively by team so if I swim 10 meters and John swims 1910, that's 7 points for the winners....

Other exercise, cross training, core, ice skating, crock pot cooking, etc - 1 hour = 2 points.  Hey, we are triathletes ( and I will judge your alternative exercise as appropriate exercise or not ).

Throughout the month there will also be bonus weeks or weekends, with extra points offered for whatever I deem appropriate (are you getting a feeling of dictatorship?)  What I mean is one week may have bonus points if a team swims 20 miles, you will know at the beginning of the week if there is a bonus.

Remember - THIS IS FOR FUN (as long as my team wins).

My team name suggestions:

John - THE WINNERS

Gary - Team Half Fast

Yes Lena those prices are right.  Once you own the mask you can get the test for 99 as you can re use the mask.  Also, the Infinit folks are great to talk with.  You can schedule a phone consul with them via the link on the left side of the home page.

Gary - YOU ARE GOING DOWN, DITCH BUG BREATH......

John - new name.....THE CHAMPIONS

Started the month off right by getting up a half hour early so that I could do 30 minutes on the bike trainer before work. Here's my workout plan:

Monday - cycle (a.m.), swim (noon); Tuesday - swim (noon); Wednesday - cycle (a.m.), run (noon); Thursday - swim (noon); Friday - off; Saturday - cycle; Sunday - run

Bitter cold here at the moment.

Lena - I scanned the Russian card/letter and have sent it to you at your Yahoo email address
