get fit twin cities challenge - team BT??? (Page 3)

wow.. way to do all the possible scenarios.. you remind me of a tester I once had... lol..

lets say jan 10th-feb 10th for now.

oh, and i got the team kit today with bracelets and passports and all sorts of stuff. i'll see many of you at tri-u-mah...but we'll need to figure out a way for me to get it all to the rest of you.

roger, you should be getting your packet soon.

no packet here yet.. but  I was chasing you about a week behind i thinks...  if I get mine .. ill bring them to the race as well...

im so confused... maybe a letter to the editor is merited here...

I just recorded my weight loss and my activity minutes today.  So yes, it is up and running.  Go Team B.T.!!

Just entered my data also.  Boy does BT make that easy!  Let's go show'em what triathletes are made of!

the site is very cheesy..cant even put in more then one category of exercise..  wtf!!

I agree on the cheesiness. But wow - I did 18 hours of exercise in 30 days?? For me that is phemonemal, I'm very excited. . .

i totally forgot to go log. i'll go do it now.

I got a packet today.. , but only 3 sets of goodies..  I ll hand em out to whomever claims em at the tri-u-mah . 

i think i have extras, so i can bring some for your folks.

and I thought we were piling it on...

Rank	Team	Weight Loss	Avg Activity
1.	Maquoketa Thunder Lighten Up Iowa - Dubuque	2.30%	119 hrs 16 min (Total: 596 hrs 20 min)

 

664

BT2 (Beginner Triathlete.com)

0.00%

25 hrs 47 min (Total: 128 hrs 55 min)

I guess we should be Quadrupling our efforts !!   Not all Activities are EQUAL!!!

This week I'll enter all my time from back to Jan 10th. That'll add 40+ hrs.

I was on vacation last week. Do you suppose it's ethical to add my 5 hrs of snowmobile time and fishing time? If so, that'd add about 40 more hrs for last week alone.

OUCH! we have more people, but fewer minutes????

1365
Team BT 1.33% 21 hrs 3 min
(Total: 210 hrs 30 min)

I'm now logging my power walks to and from the bus stop to get into/away from work.

The low count is partially my fault. I took way too much time off before and after my relay. Sorry! This month will be better. Hey, I exercised for 2 hours on Sunday alone I guess I better do something real this week...

my jan. nbrs were low too because of the flu. i'll do much better for feb.

bwaahahaaha.. thats just too funny!!! hell, rolling out of bed.. makes light headed... better log the whole day!! rofl... im kidding of course.. i dont roll... lol.. not light headed either.. but some might argue that point.

as your humble captain, i just scored two tickets. its a school night, so i don't think i can take one of the kids (would love to take malte, but he has to get up SO early for school). anyway, who wants to go with me? i might bike over there weather permiting, but would need a ride home after (w/ bike). there is a chance i might actually have to work that night, in which case my tickets would be up for grabs for two of my team mates.

yep.. i got two as well!! that makes 4 timberwolves tickets..

okay folks, who wants to go????

here's some clarification on what counts as 'activity'...hee hee:

Reporting Minutes of Activity: We would like to reinforce Get Fit’s definition of physical activity. Anything that you count as intentional exercise that lasts more than 10 minutes counts towards your minutes. For example, walking to the water cooler at work doesn’t count. But, if you intentionally take a 10 + minute walk during the day for fitness, that counts. If you would like to revise the January Minutes you submitted, please e-mail: [email protected].

something tells me this group isn't logging walks to the water cooler.

and hey, beuller? beuller? anyone want to go see the wolves w/ me and roger? we have TWO tickets up for grabs. i'd like to have folks from the BT teams go. prolly free food & schwag (just my guess). takers?

Thank you very much for the offer on the T'Wolves tickets.  Unfortunately that would require a drive to the Target Center followed closely by watching an actual basketball game.  Not my cup of tea.  But, no sarcasm meant here, it is a very nice offer.  Once again thank you.

I wonder if the Get Fit people looked at the stats and it raised questions on the average minutes of exercise per day. My only grayish area is that I have decided to log my long and fast walks to and fro the bus and work. I purposely walk fast to get in a little exercise and it amounts to almost a half mile each way (I mapped it). I am not getting on my running shoes and togs, but I am definitely getting in some more fitness than the lollygaggers I speed by. And in heels most days!

I also really appreciate the offer of the tickets. I am usually up for a night out, but I just don't enjoy basketball. I am already downtown also, which is good for me but not so good for someone who needs a ride home (since I take the bus). If no one else wants to go, and you really want to use the tickets, I would be willing to go for the comraderie but reserve the right to leave at half-time.
