Hello

I have received a few of these random inspires and  really thought it was exciting. After I receive a random inspire I check-out the persons who sent it logs & page.  One time I received one from someone who is an outstanding racer and he said my training looked solid.

Made the OFM feel good.

Thanks.  It does work.

Force - 2010-04-10 8:54 PM OK it's been more than a day since this got started and I'm still waiting for someone to love me randomly....sniff.....


You have over a 1000 posts, dude, and you've done an IM (in pretty good time, too, I must add), plus, with the Donkai Nation, how could you be so un-loved?

How about a random EEEAAAWWW??!!

max - 2010-04-10 8:31 PM I'd occasionally make a game out of this:

1.  Inspire someone on your own friend's list
2.  Pick someone from that person's friends list and inspire them
3.  Repeat step #2, ad nauseum
4.  Keep a count of how many people you can inspire without:

     a.  Sending an inspire to someone on your own list
     b.  Sending an inspire to someone you've already sent one to

Keep going until you reach a dead end.  No "backing up and trying again" if you can't proceed any further, i.e. you run into someone who has no friends on their list OR you run into a blog that can't be viewed.  Those situations are just tough luck and part of the game.


I'm going to give this a whirl.

Done. Got through quite a few before I reached a dead end. I will have to do this again... and get more friends on my list!

I have my blog blocked to non-friends (professional reasons) and therefore feel like it's rude to comment on the logs of people who are not on my friends list. 

I'll go reply to a few "Introduce Yourself" posts instead!  That and comments to Race Reports are also good for building the BT community.

Hi - my name's bodhi_girl and I'm a triathlon-a-holic.

I'm new, and someone - be my friend so I can get inspires/d! I want to know what all the fuss is about! Smile

PS: I didn't know I had to friend people on this site. Do I have to friend people on this site? Or can I just post random musings .. ?

Just wanted to thank the random inspirers. It is nice and has prompted me to go out and do the same as well as make sure I update my logs. It is definitely a good feeling to have someone compliment you on your workout.

I don't have anyone on my friends list, now I feel lonely.  Cry

Actually I don't know how the friends list works and I haven't had the time to get into it.
I have been having fun finding people to inspire though.

Sharyn5 - 2010-04-15 10:02 AM Aw...

I started a thread on how to add friends...but it got deleted...got a little bizarre in there. ha If you go to settings at the top of your page, then you'll see training log customization (I think that's the tab)...click there, and you'll see ''friends,'' there is where you can add people. I'll add you, it's hard to see people you like to chat with in the online section at the bottom, because it's not in alphabetical order, it's easier to add someone as a friend in your list. Hope that helps!


Yay I have a friend Wink  What wait you can chat too?  Appearently I do not spend enough time on BT.

haha By chat I meant...just saying hello, leaving an inspiration message in log = chat.


There is a chat room too. Look in the upper left under "user information" just below the BT logo
