tahrens - 2008-10-28 4:01 PM I'll join.  I need to start my run specific training for a 1/2 mary in March so this would be a great kick off.

My good friend MAV suggested I join a challenge so this is my first time! 

I'm also thinking about a 1/2 Mary in March (the 'maybe' is that its in FL and I'm up here in the north so travel time and $ are still up for discussion) Regardless, I need to get faster and eventually go further... so here I am!!

I've only competed in 1 Tri and 1 Du so I'll need to keep the biking and swimming up for next season but I'm hoping for 40-50 miles next month!

Hey Runners!  I'm glad I'm not the only one!

Now's the time to whisper sweet nothings to me if you have a team preference.   I'll try to assign over the next couple days - though I might miss getting in place by midnight Friday as I have a coupla munchkins to run around to parties and TrT-ing.  Post your goals if you haven't already!

Let's see, I haven't headed up a challenge before so bear with my learning curve as I work this out.  There will be one team winning bragging rights - add a signature line and/or awesome avatar.  Losing team change your avatar to something .... what?  I'll have to think of a good one.

Any runners who, at midmonth, have not completed at least 30% of their goal will be sent to the chopping block to be served for Thanksgiving dinner (i.e., removed from their team spreadsheet) unless they have posted a good reason (building miles, big race at month end, etc.) that their neck should be saved at least until Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanzaa/Solstice.   
I'm hoping to have committed team members pushing each other towards goals--and limiting the effects of any non-interested/participating team-members holding the team goals back...the coach kicking off the team member who fail to show for practice.

Sound good?

I will do 100 miles.  I am also doing the 5x/week challenge.  It should be interesting.  It's my first time trying 2 challenges in the same month!  I hope I can keep up!  Put me on a highly motivated team!

Thanks....happy running to all!

I apparently respond well to corporal punishment, so I'm down for a team that likes to beat each other up WIN! Competitive is a good thing, right?

Hey Stuart!  Good to see you around P'mate! 

Are you Turkey Trotting in SJ by chance?  That's my 10K goal!  Likely you have closer choices though?

With luck and some friendly ghosts and goblins I've posted team spreadsheets and started threads for y'all.  Hopefully my witching hour attempts have not introduced
too many errors!

Yes, more runners are still invited to join our challenge; post here if you want to join the fun and challenge.

Go teams!  stay off the bench.

Now to sleep... and then to figure our MY goals!
