BT Swim Challenge (Page 3)

I love the accountability of a challenge, but the distances you all are posting.  Yikes!

I'm going to throw my measly 9k yds in the mix for the men.  I did 8k last month and don't want to push it...I'm still trying to learn how to swim.

That's the beauty of it...you set a goal that is a challenge to you and it still helps the team equally if you reach it...your 9km and my 40km are individual challenges but 100% is 100%.  So push yourself to a personal goal regardless of how it compares to others.

Ladies, at this time we've pledged a whopping 274,000 (amended) yards for the month of May!!! Let's all be sure to give each other regular Inspire Me's, check each other's logs, PM your teammates if you're struggling. Team Testosterone's got Brawn but we've got Brains and Chick-Chat!  This Team has some good mojo going already - 2 of you are namesakes to my wonderful nieces.

GO TEAM CHYCK!!!

Edited to amend Renee's goal.

I see 30k, do we have 35k? Anyone?

coredump - 2005-05-02 1:42 PM Count me in for 45,000 meters. Can't let the gauntlet go unanswered. I may revise that up depending on my schedule/plan from the coach. :D -Chris

WOW! Now that's a commitment, hell, you better go hop in the water now.

Damn, Renee just bumped hers up to 40k for the Chyck adees, good thing we have Chris with 45k.

Okay boys...the girls have begun the trash talk.  I tend to more of the quiet type letting my actions speak for me.  So how about we let the women run their mouths as usual (oh...was that smack talk?) while we log our workouts.  Before they realize what happened we'll have blown them out of the water.

Here's the pledges for the guys so far:

Don't you guys ever BIKE and RUN??? I spend the vast majority of my time running/biking... it's where I need the most work... But, I can commit to SOMETHING... I mean I WANT TO BE ON THE TEAM!!!! 

You can put me down for the rather measly goal of 12,000 yards. (!!!!)

Whizzz

Duplicate! Whoops! I guess anything worth saying is worth saying twice!!! PUT ME DOWN!!! PUT ME DOWN!!!

Doesn't matter actually...it's your individual goal so use whatever unit of measure applies.  We're doing % of goal reached for the team challenge so units are irrelevant.

I'd like to stipulate that the men have a long-stem rose in their mouth when they post their speedo shots.

Your total yardage is higher, but the average yardage is 23,966 to our 23,833. And that's with your 3 +40k pledges skewing the results. Yer gonna looooooooose!!!
