Once again this year I will be participating in the Corporate Challenge games through my place of employment. I have previously written about participating in or even captaining teams in several of the events: Biggest Winner (2013, 2014), Bike Race (2011 2012), Track and Field, Tug O War and Laser Tag. This year will be slightly different.
I am captain of the team for the Biggest Winner competition again this year and I feel like i have a strong, motivated team. Yesterday was the initial weigh in and to prepare, I ate just about anything and everything to "bulk up" before hand. It seemed to work in that my initial weight for the competition came in at 448 lbs. Now its time to put in the work, watch what I'm eating and lose a significant amount of weight. the final weigh in for this event is on May 11. Just over 9 weeks away.
I am also captain of the bowling team this year. The gentleman who had been captain for several years retired, leaving an opening which I decided to see if I could fill. It will be interesting to see how we do this year as there have been some strong teams in the past. I'll be posting more on this over the next few weeks as the competition isn't until May 3rd.
Track and field is on the agenda as well as I participate in both the softball throw and the shot put again this year. I really need to get out and get some practice time in as this event is coming in less than 3 weeks. I hope to better my mark from last year so I need to get out there and throw the ball!
So, with these events I have to get active and get healthy. My biggest secret will be to...
get on my bike and ride!
ADDENDUM
I just looked at my calendar and realized that the track and field event conflicts with a previous engagement so I won't be doing the shot put or the softball throw this year.
