20lb lost, $20 spent!

So as mentioned in this post I am aiming to lose a bit of weight, 20lbs to be precise, that will put me in the high at 16olbs, it’s a lofty goal but most of mine are right! So here’s the deal, to join me in this challenge you need to buy in, a $20 Gift Card to Road Runner Sports gets you a seat at the table. Why RRS? Well they have a good selection of most things running and you can order the card and whatever you want to buy on line so there’s no hassily lines etc.

Here are the rules:

1. This is a weekly challenge based on percentage body weight lost
2. It will operate on the honor system, you’re only fooling yourself
3. It will operate 1 week per competitor, i.e. 9 players equals 9 weeks
4. You need to email me, quadrathon-at-gmail-dot-com, your start weight no later than 5pm Sunday January 17^th
5. You need to email me no later than 5pm the following Sunday and by that time each successive Sunday thereafter your new weight…you snooze you lose
6. The winner of the week will be announced Monday or Tuesday
7. The winner will receive a Gift Card from a fellow competitor which they will nominate; obviously the first Card you win will be the one you have to start with
8. No sandbagging week 1!
9. Winners and Gift Card givers can negotiate off line as to actually sending the cards etc
10. If you’re over the border or overseas email me and we can figure something out I am sure
11. Don’t do anything silly, be healthy and if in doubt stop

The idea here is that potentially if you’re doing well you can earn two, three or five gift cards, $20 will get you some gels or maybe a pair of gloves $60 may get you a nice jacket, $100; that’s a new pair of shoes!

Based on the earlier post these are the folks that are interested, including me there’s $220 already! Confirm by comment below and we’ll start from this weekend!

Public peer pressure…don’t you just love it!
