Subject: RE: Crypt Keepers - Halloween Run ChallengeMDHillSlug - 2009-10-27 7:59 PM Donskiman - 2009-10-27 9:39 PM If the spreadsheet is up-to-date, it looks like 2 people have essentially sabataged the hard efforts of the rest of the team, and another person may not have been able to workout as planned because of illness. Many people have pushed through injuries to reach their goals for the team and they are to be commended.
Hopefully the people who are well behind their goals have simply failed to log and post - and will do so before the challenge ends.
Congrats to everyone who has already achieved their goals and those on track to reach them by Saturday. Unfortunately, this is fairly typical for a challenge. Best intentions and all that. I'll see if I can prod them a bit. Yes, I have participated in challenges before and I know this is typical. It's one thing when people have good intentions and fail to follow through when they're on their own, and quite another when their apathy sabatages the hard efforts of the rest of the team. IMO, people who were already well behind their goal by the halfway point should have dropped out to be fair to their team. I do admire the people who have determinedly pushed on despite being injured, sore, or sick. |
