Hey - I'm doing Iron Girl, too!

I'm also doing Iron Girl! (Atlanta 6/29) - 1 month from today to shed 8 lbs!!!!

Which Iron Girl event are you ladies doing?

I'm doing Iron Girl in Columbia, MD on Aug 24th. My biggie is two weeks later - the Reston Triathlon on Sept 7th. It is an Olympic distance...and a fast course!

IronGirl Irving (TExas) for me.  It will be my third time.  Love Love Love this race. Good luck in Columbia Diva.  I lived in Columbia for 15 years before moving to Texas 2 years ago.  Tough course but lots of fun!

Hopefully it's not too late to join in on the fun! I'll go for an even 5lbs.

Teams are now formed. Team A has 10 players with a total of 80 lbs as their goal. Team 1 has 11 players with a total of 82 lbs as their goal.

NEW PLAYERS CAN BE ADDED THROUGH MIDNIGHT (Eastern time) MAY 31st.

Teams may create their own thread, can give themselves a better name and can nominate a team captain. If no team captain is chosen I will determine the team captain by the person with the most post padding count (that would be you, dodgersmom and sharkie...)

Hm. Great idea!

Oh wait... Nevermind. I'd be captain of every challenge that I joined.

Um, unless Beth (LastCall2003) was in it, too. Then she'd be captain.

Well, it's still a good idea.

You're doing a great job of organizing this!

I need the motivation

I NEED STARTING WEIGHTS FROM EVERYONE

On the morning of June 1st I will need everyone to weigh in on your team thread. I will create two team threads. One will be "Team A" and the other will be "Team 1." If you don't want those to be your team name someone better start making a decision fast! The next time you will weigh in will be the morning of June 8th...and every Sunday in the month.

I know we are all going to be successful with our weight loss goals. I'm really excited to get this started!

racalvert -- 215 lbs.

Great! I put you down on the team thread.

TEAM A THREAD

TEAM 1 THREAD

May the SMACK TALKING begin!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, go pick your team captains!

Ack, like outloud?!

No finger pointing going on here!

BTW, if you have a better idea I'm all up for it! I just don't know any other way to do it (can you tell this is my first time organizing a challenge???)
