THE ROOMMATE CHALLENGE 2008



This semster i joined wellness, which is the schools gym. I was working out one day when i saw that they were having a "biggest loser" competition. I thought it would be a good modivator so i joined up for it. They also had a 3:10 to yuma.. People are racing to run/stair master/ elipical/ bike to get to "yuma" first. Another one they had was four courners. People are biking around the state of az. I was talking to my roommates about it and we all thought it would be fun if we did a 3:10 to yuma ourselves!!

So said that the goal was 300 miles. We haven't found somewhere that is 300 miles from thatcher yet.... We are also doing a point system. For every mile you run you get 4 points. For stairmaster if you go a mile you get 3 points. IF you do a mile on the elipical you get 2 points. And if you bike or walk a mile you get 1 point. All other workout stuff like a sport, dancing, abs, weight, you get a point.

The idea is that the goal is to get 300 miles first. HOWEVER with the points i could come in 2nd but still win if i did harder and better work outs. WE are recording our mileage on our wall. We cut out ppl from magazines and we move them every time we get mileage. WE also have to record what we do each day. at the end we will figure out points to see who is the Winner!!

Sarah said she isn't going to do it but we are making her. she prolly wont get much mileage but she can get points for stuff. We are alll way excited and it makes us work out and be healthy!! It's a win win. Plus it will help me with the biggest loser for wellness =]
