Today is the start of the two mile challenge! Beginning at 5pm, you have through Sunday at midnight to complete a two mile run. Race description is as below.
1. Two Mile Challenge (9/2-9/4) -- This is a two mile road race. For those who have it available, try to use a heart rate monitor. Course may be as easy or challenging as you would like to make it. The winners will be decided Monday. Race must be completed between 5pm Friday and Midnight Sunday. Points will be awarded to the three fastest times. (A handicap system will begin after the first four events) Results must be uploaded into Garmin Connect and labelled "TS: Two Mile Challenge" and available to public search by Midnight on Sunday!
Points for this first competition are as follows:
First - 2 pts
Second - 1 pt
Third - 1 pt
Bonus -- One bonus point will be obtained for taking a self-portrait photo in workout attire in the area of the run course. Either before, during, or after... preferably after! Photos must be sent to teamsquish@gmail.com before midnight Sunday for credit. And... Kudo's to Maggie and Zac for the photo idea!
Let's rock the first event ever for the start of the Team Squish Race Series!! Be careful running, stay safe, and be stoked!!
See you at the Finish Line!

Nice Picture! Why does 2nd and 3rd get the same points? Second place should be slightly higher than third.
The first few races will have less pull on the overall standings... to do this I have decided to only give points as described. Once a handicap is established to level the field, we will have more of a 3,2,1 point system. This will allow you to have a better chance! :-)
Everything is looking good. Still waiting on a response from Adam C... Maybe he's too intimidated!
