You mean the cattle prod isn't motivation enough? Hm. You're a tough one. Then again, you ARE burning a cute little Peep at the stake....

which could be worst being eaten or burned? Is yours on a birthday cake?

I am waiting for it to cool off, the wind seems to be picking up.

Back to the wind...

I get so overheated that if there is not some kind of head wind, I feel I don't run as well.

When I spin indoors I have the fan blowing right on me! Kind of like a head wind

Looking like I may be able to go soon, hubby is almost done with the yard work!

Sorry, how is your back doing? I haven't had a chance to voyeur into blogs yet....

Hey guys we are DFL again! I hope it is because some of us did not update yet!!!!

So I need to find out, race numbers count double???

If we finish 110% we are not losers even if someone did not complete their goals???

And what is the consequence if we do lose, I like to prepare.

I wish I wasn't so competitive.

Races do count for double.

Whether or not you are a "loser" for the month depends on the status of your team. The consequence for losing is changing the avatar for a month.

Nope, not a birthday cake. She (or he) is just staring at the flame. I think she's trapped in the TV and I've named her Carol Ann.

"Carol Ann! Run away from the light!"

(Yes, it's from a movie....)

Yes, races count DOUBLE! So race lots of times this month!

It goes by the team average, so yes, if we hit 110%, we can help out any team members who lag behind.... That said, there have been months where the winning teams are over 100%, so we need EVERYONE to train hard!

The consequences, if we do not win, are:
1) Burning at the stake. (Inspired by your avatar.)
2) Cattle prod zapping.
3) Cattle prod zapping followed by burning at the stake.

Um, I'm competitive too. Just in case you haven't noticed.

(I think the losing penalty is changing to a flower avatar for the month of May.)

At least that is better than peeps.

Think I can pull off an extra 10%, I have a night shift tonight and one next week so it will be based on how well I handle those.
