See the handy dandy histogram below to see how your baseline compares with the rest of the field. And remember there are TWO chances to win. Are you going for the longest time? Or the most improved? Or trying for a shot at either?!?

Regardless of what you're hoping to win, you've got your work cut out for you, so get to work!!
***
For those of you competing in the contest, remember that your weekly totals / best times are due to either Megan or me in the comments at the end of each weekend (so, by end of day Sunday). Just commenting on your own blog (or texting me, Nicole, lol) doesn't count!!!

I dealt with a broken trailer all weekend plus a horse show, sorry. I got 4:50. Does it count to go backwards LOL!
ReplyDeleteI am probably going to have to withdraw :( B is lame AF
ReplyDeleteI didn't ride this weekend (I spent it stuffing my face with turkey for Thanksgiving and cursing the freezing rain) so I don't have a weekly update. Not an auspicious start...
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if we were supposed to do a weekly check in this past weekend since the sign up date ended during the week. Either way I was out of town until Sunday night and didn't get to ride. Maybe this week.
