Wet and Wild (Page 11)

You guys rock!

Funky-Chrono-Monkeys of the Frozen Cinder Tundra – Captain Bluejack
Notice any family resemlence?

maybe the only thing we know for sure is this

what I do know, is that this team kicked some monkee booty!  Awesome job of inspiring each other and keeping things going!

Flying Fish – Captain Kendra
Well, the Talking Tilapia are at it once again (ahem, yes I know the blisters have a higher post count – LOL) – ok, back on track; According to team captain “That's right we don't lose, but we might be loose.  LOL” , hmmmm, now that’s food for thought????

Yeah, and hmmm, does anyone else find this disturbing?

This team has done an awesome job of inspiring each other – they’ve been through sickness, broken down cars, latex vs silicone and well, they still keep swimming!

Team Ride Lots – Captain Scott
Ahhhh Kenj has learned well from Master Waterdog66

Eat  your Loblolly and ride your trainer while visiting BT and you too shall be a Master – muwahahaha!
And I still continue to be intrigued by Loblolly, how do you pronounce it??? Well, in case you’re wondering it’s: Lob, as in Blob, and Lolly as in Lollypop – there’s some very interesting history here, there’s still time to learn about the origins of Loblolly!

Loving Every Mile – L.E.M. - Captain Lisa
We have the Boston Marathon, traveling for work (like seriously! Tokyo!!) to the longest run ever!  These people LOVE TO RUN!!!!!

Who’s your Marmadaddy? – Captain Sal
Judi was the first Power Puff girl to run across the finish line w00t w00t!  Apparently Sal and Kendra have been negotiating regarding a certain pic that was promised to Kendra by Sal in November?????? In fact, he somehow got the Power Puff girls to post their after some discussion as to what the ‘punishment’ would be for the loser of the challenge within a challenge. (wow Sal, I gotta hand it to you, you know how to work it! LOL). Here’s some inspiration for them

Dexter had a most excellent challenge, complete with the Freezeroo #4 Hearnish 10K and the discovery that V8 tastes good with vodka

You ain’t heavy,  you’re my blister – LOL

Scrambled Legs – Captain 1for1
Wow, some pics in the Scrambled Legs thread that I may never recover from – LOL (yes, me) -   yeah, well you have to check them out on your own –
Talk about some true dedication, in spite of a broken arm – John exceeds more than 100% of his goal! 


I think the  spirit of this team is summed up by this one quote!

“THIS IS WHY I LOVE CHALLENGES... New Friends, Motivation, Meeting a goal that I never thought I would see me set, and finding ways to push and know I can push harder. “

all we know, is that they are not a bunch of dancing chickens!

There were some treats offered

There were folks that were able ride in spite of a hangover, some even put in a 4 hour drainer ride
hmmmm, I guess this team has had plenty of T.I.T.S!
yeah, sooooooo – not going to even try and describe what came up when I did a google search on T.I.T.S - LOL

I hope you all enjoyed the challenge as much as Dee and I did!

drum roll please!

and the winner is???????

I did a final check to make sure that everyone has their yards logged. We made it at 100.39%!!!!

Thanks to all of you who did extra to make up for my melt down.  I appreciate the encouragement from everyone.  I had not done an official "lap" since elementary school.  It was great to get back at it and not as scary as I thought.   Only 39 years between the two...

It came back much better than I thought and all your encouragement, coaching and inspirational notes were a big help.  It may seem silly that I can run a marathon and be afraid of the pool but you guys helped me over it.

Many thanks... Now, off to the bike challenge for February with a marathon in the middle.

Thanks all on this awesome team, you were all champions. We made it together. Who said swimmers don't know how to play as a team? We may have an individualistic sport, but we know how to cheer each other to win at the end.

Great job all, and good luck on all your new challenges next month. Cheers.

PS     Don't forget to sponsot my marine's through Challenge Athlete Foundation. This raising $$ will do directly to the Soldiers who are permanently amputed from the war.

I think we have to thank them.
