i'm really ready to go for the maintain campaign.


when do we start?


whenwhenwhenwhenwhen?

*****************

any and all interested in another winter maintain campaign should hop on in here.

i'm thinking smaller regional teams - but that's open to discussion.

let's take the time to sort it out now so that we're ready to go come december.

The event would run from 11/21 and end January 2. Each day has a fitness, or health related activity worth a certain amount of points. Plus additional points are given for working out each day. The weekend (Sat/Sun) count as one day. I have a calendar setup with the different activities, and I am looking to add/modify more.

I have the scoring spreadsheet already done, so all I need to do is plug in the team name and members and that is good.

Setting up the teams is up to the teams themselves. Three people are on each team, and you ask/are asked to be on a team

Everyone can participate, the calendar events are fun, and healthy.



Interested Riff Raffers:

Pug
Blue
TimRuns
Karlene


will add names to the list Smile

Not sure if I am going to do this event this year. The participation in virtual events has not been that good lately.

If there is a enough interest, we can do it

You know, I think an event with smaller teams (like the maintain campaign) might actually work better than the two team monsters.

I sent a draft calendar out to a few folks, looking for ideas for this year.

Last year we had 6 three person teams. It would be great to have more.

As it looks now, the event is scheduled to start 21 November.

Stay tuned for further details

I'm interested. I'll be getting back into longer weekend runs, I think, in prep for marathon training come January.
