Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Hurray Ryan! (lawlessryde) who came thru with an extra run Sunday putting us at 28.14% overall! I stole a formula from someone else's spreadsheet that gives your rank within our team, so here it is (just to add to the friendly competition) Place (by avg of total percentage of goals to date) 1st Scott - goblue9696 45.97% (taking the second half of the month off?) 2nd Kelly - kirby 38.06% 3rd Ernie - ejc999 36.70% 4th Brent - kausnfxx 34.38% 5th Chris - chris tree 27.25% (on a taper week!) 6th Ryan - lawlessryde 25.82% 7th Melanie - splerph 22.22% (with an injury no less) 8th Jodi - jodilynn 19.91% 9th Ann - annabanana 18.64% 10th Marcy - dodgersmom 12.46% (still great for just getting back to it!) And Ernie and Chris are tied for most supportive teammates in the blogs - tho' that is a REALLY close race with many of you! I know that even tho' I didn't meet my goal for that week, I did more than I would have if I wasn't in the challenge! And this week I'm even more motivated to catch up, so I am getting creative on how to get the workouts in, and it's working! For me, that is what makes this challenge a big success - win or lose!!! Take care, all! Annabanana |

Member 46 Fort Collins | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! I'm so sorry I haven't been around these past couple days. This is the first time I've been able to get to the library (rec center computers won't let me access half of this site). I'm right on schedule. I'm training for my first sprint triathlon, so the amount of miles and time goes up every week. So right now I don't look like I'm 25% of my goal, but I am because I'm right on schedule. A little ahead, actually. If I follow the plan through this whole month, I'll make all my goals. Just so you guys know. Doesn't show I'm 25% of the way there, but I am. Woo hoo! Go team 10! We are going to win! Oh, and Chris, I now bless your runs with 'scads' of cute girls. But is Sue your wife? Wouldn't she have something to say about that? |

Expert 1205 Herndon VA | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! I'm really enjoying this challenge. I have someone to listen to me talk about triathlons. Now when I discuss triathlons with family members or friends, they get that far away look in their eyes. So, you guys are stuck with my obsession. Keep it up Good In10tions. Ernie |

26 | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Hello all, great job in making 28 percent of our goal. The room is almost finished, way before the baby is due, good thing because I have a honey do list longer than my July training goals. Got in a awesome ride this morning, a whopping 25 miles. Tonight finished my swim, 1000 yards. Got another week before my first triathlon. I hope I am ready, ugh!! Have a great day everyone, keep up the great training. |

Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Thanks Renee! I appreciate all the work to get it all together. Heads up Team Ten.....I'm in process of clarifying with Renee, but it looks like we will only be able to count the total number of folks who are at goal in all 3 sports for our finish place. So it's all or nothing. The percentages will only be used for tie breakers, as I read it in Renee's comments. SO FIRE UP AND GET OUT THERE AND GIVE US 50% BY SUNDAY!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!! (some of you already have!) Will keep you posted, but wanted you to have a heads up on the new rule before the weekend. I'm hoping to do some catchup I suppose - if it doesn't kill me!

Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Ok gang! Renee just cleared things up for me, and I want you all to know the right rules. She posted it on the Weekly Update thread if you want to read in her words, but basically we need to get as many of us at 100% of goal in all 3 sports as possible. We'll get one 'point' for each person who has this - NOT PERCENTAGE AVERAGING - so at the end of this week you have to have 50%+ in EACH of your sports goals in order to give us a point. Last week for example, 6 of you had >25% average, but only 3 had >25% in each sport, so our team only got 3 points. The overall team percentage is only used to break a tie. Hope this makes sense, and helps you set your workout goals for the rest of the challenge. And I apologize for not understanding it completely beforehand - and for setting a stupid running goal. I'll do my best to make it, but I may let you down :-(. No matter what I'll be trying very hard and will be cheering like crazy! Happy weekend gang! Annabanana |

Member 46 Fort Collins | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! I will definitely go out and run 3 miles tomorrow, since that's the only sport I'm not to 50% in yet. I want to get us those points! And then I'll send you my week 2 totals tomorrow as well, since I probably won't be on a computer on Sunday. Did you want how much we've done to date? Or just how much we did this week? I'm guessing you'll want the to-date totals. Go team 10! |

Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Cool! I think I will have to do a bunch of little short runs whenever I can fit them in. DH has been out of town so it's been tricky this week, but heck, my life is like that, that's my own challenge! JodiLynn you rock!!!! You can send me the totals anytime, split out however is easiest for you, ok? My spreadsheet can do all the math. If you want to estimate Sunday and then adjust the following week, like Chris did, that is fine also. All that counts in the long run is the final numbers at the end of the month - unless I got that rule wrong, too LOL!!! Anyway, thanks for keeping me inspired!!!! Hugs to all you Tens Annabanana |

26 | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Okay, Captain..... So we need to be at 50 percent of all the sports in order to get us that Weekly point? and what day does the week start and end on? Just to clarify, I am 10 miles short of 50% of my bike goal so do I have sunday to make it up on? |
2005-07-17 6:48 AM in reply to: #195617 |
Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Yep - that's the way I understand the rules according to Renee! You need 50% in each of your sports to get the point. And yes, you have Sunday included. The week starts with Monday and ends with Sunday, we post results to her on Monday. Hope this helps - I am not particularly crazy about this scoring method, but am working hard to make my point! I need a short swim and about an hours run to make it. I'm pretty sure I can do it without a problem - no soreness from yesterday, just a bit tired. Remember if you are pushing your limits to eat really well and get your sleep! GO TENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Member 46 Fort Collins | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Is she adding up points all month or does only the end score count? |

Expert 1099 Orlando, FL | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Good question, JodiLynn, and I'll ask her to make sure, but I am fairly certain that the end grand total is the only one that 'counts' - it would have to be that way I think, since most people don't train linearly, some have races with tapers and such, etc. I know at least in my running I like to go up, up, up, back, or something like that, on my long runs. Anyway, the interim points are mostly a status check and bragging rights for the week I guess. I know for me it served to get me out there for another run - not sure how wise it was overall, but I did it....I swear some times I am too competitive with myself! PLEASE DON'T WORRY TEAMMATES IF YOU ARE NOT AT 50% IN EVERYTHING!!!! This is a CHALLENGE, if all we wanted was to win, we'd set our goals really LOW and voila! Instead, we all reached a bit and some weeks we may fall short, but we are so far ahead just for having been there doing it....don't ever forget that, no matter what the numbers say. YOU ALL ROCK!!!! And I couldn't imagine a better group to spend the month with! Hugs all, annabanana |

Member 46 Fort Collins | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Woo hoo! I'm a little over 50% in all my goals. I just got back from a 3.2m (5K) run so that I could make 50% this week. It would probably have been wiser to just write it off and say I didn't make my goal, but I went out there anyway and now I'm icing my calf. Anyway, here are my totals for this month to date: Swim: 1600M (2200 goal) Bike: 45.1miles (60m goal) Run: 15.52 miles (30 goal) Sweet. Go team 10! |

Extreme Veteran 341 Niagara Falls, Ont | Subject: RE: Good In-10-tions - Week 2! Hey all, here's week 2 numbers. It hasn't been a great week. Between work commitments and that I've had to take the week off of swimming (thanks doc!) to let my shoulder heal up a bit, my totals are a bit off in swimming and on the run, The bike is ok. S-0m (total 3500m of 11500m) B-203.32k (total 406.24k of 480k) R-25k (total 67.6k of 140k) Week 3 will be interesting as I'm heading into a taper for the Worlds. I hope to keep training for a couple of days, and then its pretty much feet up until Saturday. Good Luck All! GO TENS! |
