Is there an official "start" date?

and is there any info needed besides just the cals burned?

and miss negative nelly here - but hrm vs non-hrm calorie counters - make a difference? (I know the database is quite over on most things), so just wondered how that works in the grand scheme of things - I know it's for fun and motivation, but just curious...

should I just ask these questions in the official thread?

ok - off to write my fingers to the bone - looking forward to my first day back at the gym in a few weeks (damn you summer ... i think ... lol)

Start date is October 1st from what I've seen.

Calories burned should be it, though during the 'Row the World' Challenge, sometimes Lee would incorporate rest days where you used glasses of water consumed to get your miles instead of cals burned but we'll see.

Good question on the calorie burn. I guess it just depends on what you have access to. I just use my HRM. Though I was a bit annoyed last round when people on other teams were counting gardening, and mowing the yard, and 'food preparation' in their exercise cals. I know it's a workout, but I'm one that considers that lifestyle. Oh well! I just had to work a little harder.

I got a question about the 'bonus miles' column so I thought I'd answer it here as well.

I left that column on there from the rowing challenge because in that one, Lee would give us the opportunity to capture members of other teams and 'steal' their calorie burns, so we'd use that column to add those numbers to our totals. Just ignore it for now. I'm not sure if there will be little challenges like that or not in this one. :flowerforyou:

Here's the one I made up real quick. But feel free to create some more!! :happy:
