Distance Challenge Entries

how soon can we start?

It needs to be planned out well. Plus, everyone can take pics of their meals, etc.

I was thinking that Thanksgiving would be a good day because everyone is going to eat on that day, anyway. But I don't want to turn everyone's Thanksgiving family time into a CUF nerd fest, with people walking around taking digital cam pics of their meals.

I think it would be nice to do sometime during the college football season...on a Saturday. Nothing is off limits.....huge breakfast....snacks all day....heavy dinner....lots of dessert....sodas and drinks....it will be awesome!!!

ps I realize that for some on the board, it will be just another normal day.

well, tailgating is well and good, but I wouldn't mind starting sooner. like say this week.

For the record, the next time we do this challenge thing (and I hope it becomes a regular event), I think we should add a weight-lifting category. Some formula for converting lbs into miles. And I want to be on the same team with Pelagius!

I think we should just do a calories-burned contest. I'm sure that fitday has some calculation for weight-lifting, no?

That is fraught with ambiguities. Maybe BBB could build in a forumla so we have the same conversion for everyone, but I think that it depends on so many variables; maybe we could measure watts.

You could get away with it...but, if we started today...I'd look like this by the time the BYU/Utah (or Thanksgiving) rolled around!

Why not just use either an HRM or a standardized website (fitday?) for all entries?

We're not playing for money here...

Haven't you paid your entrance fee yet?


HRMs have all sorts of differences. A single web site probabyl works, as long as everyone uses it.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. For now we are engaged in a great mileage war...

I have already spoken to you specifically about Jon Cicada.
