Master  2042   Albany, NY |  Subject: RE: December CRUSHERS Motivation ChallengeEmmanem - 2010-12-14 5:56 PM I found this blog today (http://runtothefinish.blogspot.com/2010/11/holiday-bootie-buster-challenge.html) and thought the challenge sounded fun but it started in the middle of November so then I thought I'd just do it on my own and who better to ask than my Crushers  Here's the rules she had posted: 1 Point per mile (run/walk/snowshoe) 1 Point per 3 miles biked 1 Point per 20 minutes of weight lifting, Pilates, yoga, stretching or abs 1 Point per 15 minutes of low impact cardio (i.e. aerobics, easy biking) 1 Point per 10 minutes of high impact cardio (spin, kickbox, etc) 1 Per day where you reach a minimum of 7 servings of fruits and veggies I wanted to change them a little to add in swimming etc. Thought I would start on January 1st and either do it for a month or a couple months. Anyone interested in joining?? I like it! Edited by rnihill 2010-12-14 5:01 PM |

SO, SO Jealous!!!!! I'll be sure to say hi to him for you. So... how is Jon doing??? Can I just repeat... SO, SO jealous! My evening so not nearly that entertaining... Jon was AWESOME!!!! However, I really hate to say it, but Ive seen Bon Jovi 3 times now and I think he is finally starting to feel his age a bit  The set was great, energetic, amazing, but I think he might have been tiring a little bit and I'm sure he was happy to get to bed afterwards. |

Master 1346 Gold Coast | Subject: RE: December CRUSHERS Motivation Challenge QueenZipp - 2010-12-15 1:53 AM I swam today. Yanti will appreciate this part......nearly every flipturn I wound up grabbing the booty of my depigletized forer coach who was swimming in the next lane over. I was splitting the lane with a breast stroker and my set had a lot of backstroke. Hard to have a good idea where I was on those turns  Nice! |

If you ask me, all those times are looking pretty good. Thanks Paul! Next tri is Jan 16th, same distance, so hopefully Christmas won't take a toll on my training and I might be able to shorten the swim slightly. How are you, I haven't seen you around for a few days. |

Anyone interested in joining?? Looks like we have a Jan crusher challenge?? I am down for doing this longer than 1 month, but if we do what will we call it? I love the multi-faceted nature of this because it's so flexible and encourages many good habits. What do you all think of doing it individually (together) instead of team point raking? |

This might be a fun one to open up to others....there may be a lot of newbies in January (just like at the gym) so it would be a fun way to introduce multisport lifestyle and cross training in a way to avoid injury |

If you ask me, all those times are looking pretty good. Thanks Paul! Next tri is Jan 16th, same distance, so hopefully Christmas won't take a toll on my training and I might be able to shorten the swim slightly. How are you, I haven't seen you around for a few days. They're piling a lot of stuff on me at work so I've been pretty busy. I have three projects right now, two of which I should finish this week and the third next week. I haven't been this busy in years. Plus my son is home for the holidays so we've been doing stuff together as a family. |

I think it'd be a great thing to do individually and not make teams if its just the Crushers. If we open it up to the rest of BT we mad need to make teams. |

Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: December CRUSHERS Motivation Challenge And I like the idea for the challenge next month. I like the simplicity of 1 point for every 20 minutes of exercise. Some could argue that walking might be easier than strength training or something else but I think its all relevant to our activity level. I think we'll be doing whatever is best for our own fitness level. Plus it just makes it a lot easier. |
