What have I let myself in for!!

I read with interest as my curiosity deepens . Would love join the unknown challenge but I feel i have got too much on already !!

[fja]

Er, what course - land, sea, air or a combination? And when does it start or is that part of the mystery too?

[DJD]

8th April,and it is not as bad as you are thinking and the course is for 11 weeks,hopefully for most of you.

[fiona28]

the plot thickens, lindsay and i both stay on the ralston incline, that wont be anything to do wih it tho

[elainemck]

Mystery mystery I wonder i wonder... I thought ileach knew the plan but I tried to get it out of her in the pub last night but assures me she knows nothing! So still clueless.

Willing to give it a shot though! DJD - please add Stuart to the list if that's still ok?

[Ileach B]

Haha unfortunately I've no idea Elaine! Wish I knew and starting to wish that I never put my name down!

But if it gets me in gear for MOK then I will plod on!

Been toying with the (will I wont I) question regarding this DjD, if it falls on the Tuesday and Thursday nights then why not.
So count me in too Donald.

i'm sure Neil John would want in too, I will tell him about it tonight and let him decide for himself though.

Hi All

Firstly l would like to say that there is no running involved,which some people might be glad and some that may be dissappointed. Two reasons one being is that if you are following a schedule either a 10k or 1/2 marathon then the running side is covered and the 2nd is l did not want to interfere with what you do on the Tues/Thurs sessions.

l want to target the area that we always say we are going to do and the idea just dies a death even befor or during the training period and that's where it stays.So by turning it into a fun thing for charity and open as a group we all might stay the course up to the MoK so we are in better shape than last year.

Intoduction
As you all know this nothing new,the aim is to concetrate on the exercises that will enhance your running perfomance come race day and hopefully give you that bit more strengh on the day.(won't go into the science,l'll leave that for the critics).

Each person as the weeks go by will add an exercise to the program up to we have six exercises then after that the extra one's that are added can be swopped for the one previously stated and you can continue with just six or you can do them all.(that can be your own choice).

Aim

The exercises must be done a minimum of 3/4 times a week.

Starts 8th March.

Entry £1.00

Title ...Follow my Leader

The game will be on the basics of three principles...Diehard....Lightweight...3 x Jokers.

Rules (simple)

1. Diehard = you have completed this weeks exercises

2. Lightweight = you have not (you can leave the game unless you use rule 3)

3. Joker= you want to continue in the game and by playing the Joker you pledge another £1.00.

4.The person/persons who have the most Diehards at the end of 10weeks wins.

Summary

All the exercises are of body weight and can be done at home or the luxury of Fiona's gym.

Any questions feel free to ask.

PS Thats it if you think its crap,that fine and thats not a problem but can you leave the £1.00 as you exit the door for charity and thanks for your interest.

Hi Donald,

adding my name - but struggling here to know just to what

hope all wil be revealed!!

[Ileach B]

Great idea Donald, maybe get us working those other muscles rather than just our legs?

Do we post on here then and detail what it is, how many reps and such like?

[fiona28]

great plan djd, i do loads of x-training but i know plenty who dont!!

i could build some of the suggestions into my toning class - so come along and do it with friends -

loving it - cant wait to get started

anyone wanting any help - I dont mind kicking butt in th gym

[DJD]

Isla

l will set the motion and format on the first one,Fiona will probably pick it up easily on the next one which is her turn anyway then everone will get the idea quickly.

l will keep a record each week,you could all really, as everyone has to say what was their result for the week.

It is all done on "Honest Mum l did do it"

Yes so far

Donald
Fiona
Isla
