HI everyone

I am trying to set up a new Challenge for the 1st of July and wanted to see if people would be keen on it before i go all out and sort it.

A bit like my Coast to Coast walk that the super Fesse has ran this month.

I have plotted on a google map, a course around the world by sea.

The game is to have teams, of now more than 15 people per team and "row your boat" around the world"

I will set up a sheet that you will be able to log your Cals burn, and these will convert in to miles for your boat.
Each team captain will gather the miles from there team and post on a thread that will be posted every day. I will then track each boat on the map.

Like I say its a bit of a working progress but wanted to see if people would be interested in this one before i but the work in .

It hoped that by having Teams that the individual teams will keep a little "gentle pressure" on people to stay in the game, and also they can do there own mini challenges to get their boat moving faster !

Any thoughts or shall i walk the plank ???

    On any exercise that you would do. The spread sheet Lee has created will convert your calories burns to "mileage" we collect the miles and it's added to the map.

    Stay tuned to this thread if you want to participate

    A sail around the world, does this mean we will all be Sea-men, of course the Beav never turns down a good challenge, my captain has already contacted me.
