Congratulations ladies!! You really were fantastic competition and a lot of fun to compete with. I really felt pushed to get my last swims in and would have totally blew off my last 3 if it wasn’t for you guys. Had a great time and can't wait to try one again.

Hi,

It's been an amazing challenge with each team striving to stay ahead and everyone cheering their teammates on!

Remember that I'll be dropping the bottom 10% from each team.

Final results will be posted shortly after noon to give everyone a chance to get everything onto the spreadsheet.

Although one team with be on top, there were no losers in this challenge! Way to go everyone!

I wouldn't get too hasty here, teammate.  My azz is shaking a little with how these ladies were getting out there.

Great, great job girls!! Now to see how the numbers fall......I'm off to work and hoping against hope that I don't need to get a new camera. Perhaps here's a preview of coming attractions --- ???

 

Just wanted to add thanks to our fearless organizer and spreadsheet queen!!! Thanks for taking this on. You rock!!

OK, here's the moment you've been waiting for: the final results!

The Girls team had 23 members reach 100% out of a total of 32 team members. The raw team completion total was 95.11%

The Boys team had 16 members reach 100% out of a total of 20 team members. The raw team completion total was 97.09%

We agreed that we'd drop the bottom 10% from each team to help deal with people who wanted to pull out late from the challenge (after May 16).

So, the final, adjusted totals are:






Boys: 99.12%

Girls: 97.98%


This challenge stayed within 1% point for most of the month but the boys really got it done!


According to the rule set by Yanti, the losing team members needs to post a bum/bottom/derriere picture as their avatar during the month of June.

Thanks for a great challenge!

Well, I guess that means I need to get a new picture taken. Soft focus, please.

Darn it all. I feel responsible. I just couldn't get that last swim in. (It's all hubby's fault and his silly "fainting" spells!)

Oh Man! I thought we had it! Those boys were really scared to put their buttocks on the Internet! This all I have at the moment, my bum is wide like my Grammies...

I had a lot of fun this month, nice meeting some new folks, swam more than I have the last two months, feeling better in the water, I know it would have been less since I don't stress about the swim and tend not to make a priority.

Taking June off, looking forward to the TdF in July!

Hi ladies!  I just wanted to let you know that you all did a darn fine job this month.  A 98% completion is very good for any challenge team.  This was a fun and motivating challenge and I hope we are all swimming better now because of it!
