Spring event idea.

This spring’s event will revolve around a baseball theme.

Basically, each mile walked or run will equate to a base. Every four bases equals 1 run.
The teams will have a line up for each day. If a person in the line up does not run that day, they are out. Three outs=end of an inning.
There can be up to 9 people “up to bat” each day. Each person can only bat once. So if you do two different workouts,( two a day run) pick the one with the most points.

Each day, a total number of runs will be calculated (only whole runs, people, “left on base” do not count)

The whole idea here is to communicate amongst the team to plan your workouts properly. This also makey you more accountable if you are scheduled to run, and do not, then you cause your team to be out.

Also the line up is important. You may want to consider putting the ringers up first and those you know who are going to run/workout because they are definite points.

We are going to try to have more than 9 people per team.

Also weekends (Sat/Sun) count as one day.

I am hoping to get at least 4 teams. Duration is likely going to be 4 weeks. We will see.
A lot of this is preliminary and subject to change.

This will be run by Greg and I.

How abouts this?

We all race to Osh Kosh, find the Whiffle Bat O'Death, and beat Shelfie with it?

This would have a high motivational factor. Wink

The baseball idea is super cool, but I'm still not playing.
