So do we have any estimations on how may pages that we will end up with? Will we be in the range of a quick read or will we be in the range of War and Peace?

D001 - 2008-05-30 9:58 AM



War and Peace? This team should bypass that many pages by.... oh, June 3rd or so.

Let's see: 126 posts in 4 days....

Prediction through the end of June, if you keep this rate up:

Approximately 1134 posts.
At 25 messages per page, that's 45 pages.

At a length of approximately 2 inches per post:
2268 inches total.
189 feet total.
63 yards total.

For those of you using the metric system, that's:
5761 cm.
57.6 meters.

..and you guys don't even know my daily post padding count yet.

dcrunningdiva - 2008-05-29 3:27 PM Kayaking - Ohhhh...sounds like so much fun. I've never been but always wanted to go!

D001 - 2008-05-29 4:24 PM Hi Lynne, I added your goals - BUT there's only room for one other, so I've combined your yoga and kayaking. It'll just say Yoga/Kayaking on the spreadsheet, with a goal of 4 hours. Is that OK? And Kurtisan - I've got your goals added, too. Dee

Hi everyone ...I am back...I have not been feeling up to par these past days ...just a tad under the weather! I have had fever, a nagging and persistent cough and just NO ENERGY! I feel much better today and just got back from a short swim and long run! MAN DID THAT HELP!!!!

as for captain.....will do it if noone else wants to.

team names...TNT sounds fine to me.

love the chattiness of you guys and gals.....carry on!!!

 

D001 - 2008-05-29 4:42 PM Sooooo.... Are you going with the name TNT? (What does it stand for again? I saw it awhile back, but you guys are doing some serious post padding having a lot of discussion.... And GPOL is your team leader? Uh oh! Let the post padding conversation begin! Edited to add: OK, I found your new name: TOTALLY NUTTY TRIATHLETES (TNT)... Will change the thread name for you.

Oh yeah! I'm doing my rounds on BT!!!  I am giving so much to charity this year! That includes my old car, tons of furniture, my time and also a lot of my skinny clothes   Given up the ghost on that one I guess.

Hi there fellow chatty Nutella freaks,

I thought I better check in on this team since I made a request to be on a chatty team for the first time, so I guessed that there would be a lot going on before the 1st of the month.....but my god......this is nuts (pardon the pun....LOL)

So after spending half an hour or so getting caught I up, it looks like we have a really fun team and a chatty month ahead. I will try and keep up and feel free to harass me relentlessly throughout this month....I usually need it and always deserve it.

I am a fellow Nutella freak who had not even thought about this evil delicious stuff in ages until I went into a local import store the other day and picked up a jar.....and then ditched it before I got to the checkout when I started to feel guilty about the fact there was a good chance that my old addictions may come back quickly and I could finish the jar in just a few days.....and now I land on a team that keeps talking about it......arrgghh. The only thing stopping me leaving my desk and going back the store to pick up a jar right now is the fact that I rode my bike to work and store is quite a bit away. But I may well make it there before the weekend is over......(Be strong Kenny....be strong..)

Still working on my goals for the month. Need to crank up the bike and have a couple of 10ks and possibly an offroad sprint tri this month. SHould have goals in by tomorrow.

Good luck all

Julie!  You're here

 

Girl Passing on Left - 2008-05-30 9:31 AM

Looks like my dd is on your team....take good care of her, will ya?

Kenny Black - 2008-05-30 8:32 AM

Oh crap.....I just wrote a big long reply and didn't answer any of the questions folks have asked so far in the thread.....so here goes....

I am originally from Scotland too, just like Triathlynne, and I now live in the sunny desert of New Mexico.

Favorite ice cream is probably.....hmmmmm.......any cold one.......and there is a Cold Stone about a 5 min walk from my work and that new peppermint patty one sounds good.

...looks like I might get both fitter and fatter this month on this team with all the food talk....

Just did my first tri last month and am training for an Oly in Sept with several other tri's and runs between now and then

I am married with 4 kids and a 5th on the way (I can't believe it either, but there you go)and come from a background of sitting around eating my wife's wonderful cooking and watching good movies....but all that has changed in the last 6 months.

And the way the post rate is going here I am sure we will all find out more about each other, weather we want to or not,  during this month
