Some of you may be familiar with an event that was done for a few years over at riff raff called the maintain campaign.<br><br>
Basically its a way to stay fit and healthy through the holiday's. Team's of three team up and get points for exercising, and participating in the various day's events.<br><br>
I am working up a calendar and will have it available to post in a couple of days.<br><br>
I'd like to post a sign up/explanation thread in the next week or so, but I am going make sure everyone here is clear with everything first and will be open for feedback on different ideas.<br><br>
Once I get my calendar ready, I will make it available to this group to look at.<br><br>
I will explain more in a little bit, as I have to leave for the office now.<br><br>

Hi Cappy! Here is the thread about the chart (is that what you mean?): <a href="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12326" target="_blank">http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12326</a> The first poster in that thread made it.

Here is a rough draft of the calendar. (let me know if it is viewable, its the first time I am using google documents to share a spreadsheet)<br><br><a href="http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pJY7ob6urNEP_rfslDXVvbQ&hl=en" target="_blank">http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?k...slDXVvbQ&hl=en</a><br><br>
Here is how the scoring works, beyond each day's points, you get 10 points each day you exercise. Exercise is very broadly defined, and loosely interpreted, I am pretty looking for any activity over 20 minutes.<br><br>
Each team will also have a Christmas/Holiday themed name, some of the names in the past have been
<ul><li>The Three Wise Guy's</li>
<li>Ho, Ho, Ho's</li>
<li>Winter Runnerland</li>
<li>Three French Hen's</li>
</ul>
I am still tweaking things, and this is a rough draft.<br><br>
My plan is to start the event the Monday of Thanksgiving week, 19th.<br><br>
What is nice about this event is that anyone can participate, and the range of calendar events are fun and interesting.<br><br>
If you have any other suggestions for events, let me know

You'll be building that into our calendar, correct?<br><br>

 

[Cappy]

Yup, I will add all this stuff into the calendar, but the calendar will be available for download as well

This is a great idea Cappy!

Any chance that I could get a forum sometime next week, so I can get the event out there, and folks familiar with it

 

[satfix]

I can do it as soon as you give me an idea of the description. We'll set it up as a sub-forum of VRAA? Or would you rather a subforum in the gym area?<br><br><br>

 

[Cappy]

A subforum in the VRAA would be fine<br><br>
Description: A fun and healthy way to stay fit during the holiday season
