Elite Veteran 781   |  Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge CentralCavu, what do you think about my suggestion for scoring on page one of the challenge central thread? I think it would be pretty easy to administer. Just put your thoughts on that thread. And Team Yeuling (or however you spell it) is now known as Team Ylangylang. Good luck, Threesomes. You'll need it with Endless Summer in the house.  Edited to say that I read so much useless blather that I thought I was on your team's thread. Heh. Edited by lynda 2005-07-01 5:05 PM |

Master 1558  Pensacola, Fl | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Is this not the challenge central thread???? I am sooo confused. My only thoughts against that is that it has a more likely chance to having a few teams tied....and no one likes to tie. |

| Elite Veteran 781 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Cavu, I understand what you're saying but I think it would be fantastic if all of the teams met their goals. And Renee, if we have a team that for some reason doesn't make (less than 8 members, for example), Endless Summer would be happy to add another triathlete to our roster.

Master 1558 Pensacola, Fl | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Don't understand.....both my way of scoring and yours...the member would be shooting for 100%, whether the score is a check mark or a percentage.....by my way, if they are stronger in another discipline they can make up for any shortcomings in another..... |

Master 1791 Raleigh, North Carolina | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central COgirl - 2005-07-01 5:17 PM I propose that when Team Yuengling LOSES to Team formerly known as Team 6 (and everyone else), that each member must mail me and my teammates a LOT of Yuengling......A LOT! I think you should defect Cathy. There's always room for a cool chick in Team Yuengling. |

Champion 8903  | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Is there a team who is still looking for a member? I've been sorta out of it all day, with my wife getting into an altercation with an 18-wheeler and trashing our car. Yes she's fine, thanks! I'd be willing to join any team what wants to put up with me!  |

| Elite Veteran 781 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Max??!!! Our Max!!??? While i certainly hope his wife is okay after her ordeal (and it really sounds serious), I get first dibs on Max. He likes imperfect spandex chicks. Perfect for me as team captain. Seriously, first freakin' dibs. |

| Elite Veteran 781 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Cavu, I understand what you're saying. I just don't like it. To me, if you pledge X yards in the pool, but don't make it, you're less than your goal. You can ride a gazillion more miles on your bike but it doesn't matter, IOW, you hit your specific goal in your spedific event, or you're less than 100% in that event. Are you saying the same thing? |

Champion 4902 Ottawa, Ontario | Subject: July Tri Challenge Central I would be up for joining a team or starting my own, should there be enough interest. Unfortunately, I can't seem to discern the rules or goals to this challenge. What is the bottom line? Is the challenge for total amount of time training for all three disciplines or for each discipline separately? In the latter, conceivably, three different teams could win in their respective disciplines. |

| Elite Veteran 781 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Can't stand it. I declare Max and NYtrigal on my team and every body else on my team. As the first out of the blocks, I never declared 8 as a team limit for Endless Summer. More risk, more reward. We're definitely a more middle aged crowd so we probably won't be rushed, but if you want in, declare by tomorrow at 5 PM CST. We have some really good trash talkers.

| Veteran 221 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central OK OK hold on a sec. If were mailing beer across the states now. When Team Endless Summer blows all away We recieve coupous amounts of Black Butte Porter and anything else from the Deschutes Brewery. Good it stinks to live on the east coast for just that reason.  |

| Veteran 221 | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Quick question. Great idea on the no addition of over you goal distance since it will keep over training down. But I fear for multiple 100% coming on in this month. But who know this is my first month  |

Extreme Veteran 319 Dallas, Texas | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central For anyone still looking for a team, go to the Team 8 sign-up thread. Someone from Team 7 (which has 9 members right now) should move over to Team 8 since it looks like there are more people interested in forming another team. |

What are you going to be like after you lose? You might want to cut back on the caffiene this month... No, our Captain Lynda the Lovely is simply the most warm-hearted of all captains. And very self-less - a leader who leads by taking care of her team and making them successful. Unlike some captains of whom I hear, who only want to use their teams as vehicles to glorify themselves beyond reality. cough*kim*cough |

Extreme Veteran 319 Dallas, Texas | Subject: Team 8 closed! Wow, this team filled up fast! In less than 2 hours . . . and at midnight no less. Team 8: 1. Captain Machiavelo 2. skavoovie 3. nliedel 4. Max 5. rsqdvr 6. TriMom3 7. harmony?? 8. cadreamer For those of you who haven't already done so, you still need to confirm your team assignment and post your goals on the team 8 thread. Good luck, all! Do I smell a TEAM 9?!?!?! |

Champion 4902 Ottawa, Ontario | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Captain Machiavelo reporting for duty. I would like to clarify a few things at the onset. Does the challenge only include swimming, cycling and running? I hope so because otherwise the logistics of it all would be rather complicated. Secondly, how do we gauge having achieved our goal if, for instance, I set swimming goal at 10,000 in 240 minutes and finish with that distance at the end of the month in a time of 220 minutes. How would this affect the percentage of my achievement? Would this constitute a 100% achivement in distance and a 91.6% achievement in time? Or could this be construed as an achievent of 108.3% in time seeing as I swam faster than anticipated? Team 8 lineup: 1. Captain Machiavelo |

Master 1558 Pensacola, Fl | Subject: RE: July Tri Challenge Central Mach....I think you need to pick either your goals in time or in distance, not both. Members can do whatever they want...it will still be a percentage of completion of said goal....being EITHER distance or time. Lynda...I see what you are saying, but that is not what you were saying earlier in the day...you made the statement that you would like to see all members complete their goal....by being able to make up deficits in one discipline with excess in another would allow that. if we don't want to have it that way, that is fine....we can limit it to a max of 100% per category...if you go over that, then you are just doing extra miles/minutes for you own good.... I just like the pecentage achieved vice the completed/not completed check mark system....with this many teams...there would be to much chance for a tie with the check mark system. Other coaches...let's hear what you think!!! |
