Twisted Blisters II (Page 21)

January Challenge Week 3 (aka, The World According to Beth)

There was talk about football in most of the threads, ‘tis the season isn’t it!  So, we’re down to the Giants and the Patriots for the Superbowl.  Oddly enough Little Debbie showed up in multiple threads as well, hmmmmm – ok, Dee and I confess to and apologize for hijacking some of the threads (having said that, I don’t think we can promise it won’t happen again, just feel free to kick us out )  Hey, Little Debbie and football – sounds like the makings of a party!
Great job to all of the teams!  It sounds like everyone is having fun and really challenging themselves – here we go into the final stretch!!

Funky-Chrono-Monkeys of the Frozen Cinder Tundra – Captain Bluejack
Shermbelle is Dee’s new best friend in the whole wide world – he has a distributorship for Little Debbie!  Check out the thread if you want to know more about who Little Debbie really is – Some really cold weather running going on – does that make one dedicated or nuts???

Flying Fish – Captain Kendra
A few highlights from the Talking Tilapia (LOL) – this team is hard to keep up with, they sure are chatty!  Did you know that Dee doesn’t cook, in fact that is the reason that microwaves were invented – my question is, why does she need to use a microwave when she has a magic wand? Poor Lynne was sick all week, but a little birdie told me she is feeling better today.  I think Cat is really the one with super powers – did you know she has the ability to arrive somewhere before she leaves?

Team Ride Lots – Captain Scott
Eating Loblolly while riding the trainer, takes multi-tasking to a new level, WaterDog66 continues to amaze the team with his skills in this arena.  Kenj, has taken the cue and is going to give the laptop trainer session a try (how did that go?)  In case anyone else is wondering Loblolly is Loblolly is anything thick and goopy like porridge. (Grits, Oatmeal, Cream of Wheat etc.) – little did I know that I’ve been eating Loblolly all these years when I have oatmeal  - LOL  Thank you for the pics of the new bike MissKelly! w00t w00t!

Loving Every Mile – L.E.M. - Captain Lisa
I continue to be amazed at just how much this team truly does Love Every Mile!  From Daremo’s 170+ miles for the month to ell-in-or’s PB, this team is turning in some great #’s.  Unfortunately team member rgattis has had to withdraw due to an injury – he is now the Official L.E.M. Cheerleader. (let me know if you need to borrow my pom poms )  Great job on moving up a spot in the rankings this past week! 

Who’s your Marmadaddy? – Captain Sal
Congratulations to Who’s your Marmadaddy for 2 weeks in a row in the #1 spot.  Update on the Power Puff girls vs the Manly Men; ladies are at 85.59% and the men are at 80.76%.  In case you are wondering which Power Puff girl you might be – well, you can find out by taking this handy dandy quiz – Thanks Jen! Here's a link to the quiz: http://www.valvigirl.net/quizzes/ppgquiz.html  
 

Wet and Wild – Captain Jeni
If anyone needs some inspiration you must watch this- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgoNB2164bE&feature=related . Thanks nevergivin for sharing this with your team,  all I can say is WOW!  While they didn’t quite achieve their team goal of being in the top three teams this week, they still turned in some awesome performances.  Just remember all of you other challenge teams – remember what they say about the quiet ones being the ones to watch out for……

Twisted Blisters – Captain Beth
If you want a chuckle visit the Twisted Blisters!  Julie (GirlPassingonLeft) has a knack for finding the funniest cartoons that always seem to fit the situation!  Frank (ny15298) has a new avatar (his fourth since the challenge began???)  I’m beginning to wonder if he’s trying to give Dee and Scott a run for their money – lol.  Despite some very busy schedules, the Blisters are holding steady in 2^nd place.

Scrambled Legs – Captain 1for1
Double Dog Dare’s have been issued by Captain 1for1 for certain team members to step up their goals – did they take the dare?  Although they dropped a bit in the rankings this week I would not write this team off as it is clear that losing is not a desirable option – there are some fierce competitors in this group!

Team T.I.T.S – Captain Max (aka keeper of the T.I.T.S)
The team started the week with sesh’s T.I.T.S in the Hump and apparently sagging because of beer and college football.  (ok, for the record the Hump is the nickname of MS State’s gym).  There are new T.I.T.S. in town as tupuppy became and official member of the team.  Lots of warm welcomes to Ty as he promised not to let his T.I.Ti.S  sag.  Apparently the BRA (Bicycling Resource Advisor) is working as the team has moved up a spot in the rankings.

yeah, they were - it's usually pretty quiet on the weekends though

ROTFLMAO!!!

I did, can you believe that?

Hmmmmm

my Blisters are all MIA!

Weren't they missing yesterday, too?

Yep, I just looked. This conversation sounds a lot like last night's. The Blisters have popped.

they must all be out running

Julie is out of town at a race

Hector is running around like a chicken with his head cut off

Not sure where everyone else is

maybe if I pout?

Sprinkle glitter on them. Maybe it'll wake them up. If it doesn't, well, hit 'em with the Magic Wand. That ought to do it.

yep, some pixie dust is in order that's for sure!

Hey guys i'm back. I took off to the desert and played in the sand for the weekend. I needed the break.

However like a good soldier I followed my captains orders, I ran 5 miles as soon as i got in today. 

I'm BAAAAAACK!

Looks like everyone took a three or four day weekend like me! sure is quiet on the Ol' Blister Frontier! Hoping you are running and getting your numbers up! Less then two weeks to go! and this says it best!!!!

 RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN!!!!!!!!!!

I hate it when that happens!!

LOL

So Julie

how was the race?

really fun...got to see lots of old friends and racing buddies....we had three days of nothing but riding, running and fun in the sun...was gorgeous...not a cloud in the sky and in the mid 60's for Sat/Sun...today was chillier...low 60's...hehe! I ended up not racing...but ran anyways! It was HE double you know what! OMG! 6 miles of nothing but up, down, upppppppppppppppp, down, way way way up.....down...across....you get it! hehe! Don and Stephs team came in 7th...they rocked! even after Don got a flat and had to catch up! they would have probably ended up top five without the flat!!! I am very proud of my hubby and daughter team! we raced in Dorothys honor and had a good cry after the race for/with her!

glad to see that you were able to work from home! hang in there dear...I hate that they are treating you soooo poorly...if only I lived closer...I would have to have a very long talk with them!!! hehe!

Gotta go eat it is getting late....have a great evening....! thanks for being Dee~ and for al the glittery messages while I was away! brings lots of smiles!!! and for the encouraging words....they really do help!!!!
