Who fancies 10km of mud and obstacles? Come and join Team Wolef

[EauRouge]

Quite a few of us are interested in doing the Wolf Run this September so we were thinking of getting a team together.

It's for all abilities, it should be really good fun. It's not timed and it'll be too wet to wear your Garmin, so don't worry if you're not a fast runner. We'll be a team and no Wolef will be left behind.

It's on the 6th & 7th of September just south of Coventry, so fairly central. If we get a team together we get a slightly discounted entry.

If you're interested, post on here and we'll start making a list.

We also need to pick a charity so if everyone wants to suggest their favourite one and then we can argue about it for ages with no firm decision being made.

So, I'm in and my favourite charity is the Birth Trauma Association.

Undoubtedly. There's quite a lengthy juggling section.

Managed 3x 5 press up today!!! Have to start somewhere!!!

Shall we all do a press up challenge or something? Or should we vary things a bit more? I bet all our biceps are pretty good (children are heavy). My core still needs work and I can't manage very many press ups yet.

A tumbleweed rolls silently across the thread!!!

Don't think anyone is up for your challenge Eau!!!

I hope no one is going to chicken out

I'm not chickening out though jumping a 10" 'thing' on my run today made my knee hurt - MUST do physio stretches

Im still up for it. Just preparing my 'body'.

I won't chicken out either. As long as I have no difficulty chucking 20 or 25 kg of horse feed onto my shoulders I will remain overconfident of my upper body strength

my running powers are still quite badly impaired by injuries but I have faith :)

shall we start push up challenge on Monday?

is it the 30 day push up challenge? if so im in.

Yes, that's the sort of thing! OK, let's start Monday then. Could we do the plank challenge at the same time or would that be pushing it?

lets do both. no pain no gain

That's the spirit! 30dayfitnesschallenges.com/30-day-plank-challenge/#_

I'm in for push ups and planks - how hard can it be eh?

OK THEN LADIES-

TOMORROW (MONDAY)
DAY 1

20 SECOND PLANK
3 PUSH UPS

(and yes I AM SHOUTING!!)

Check back in when you have completed.

Sir Yes Sir.

yayyy am looking forward to this

demonstrated by a nice young man (and friend) if people are interested in a range of easier or harder or just want to check normal form

I think I'll use dumbbells on the floor to save wear and tear on my elderly wrists

Signs up for plank challenge and pushup challenge.

Just did day 1, because if I can't do them on a day when I'm loafing around, how will I ever when I've got to work!

Well done OneHand. I will do mine before bed. Might have to do Jillain Michaels style press ups on my knees instead of all the way down

^ Jillian

OMG M1tchy! What a nice young man

Pah Emma, that all you got? Easy peas I'm a right planker, me. (Just don't ask for chinups - I tried a bit of a sideways monkey thing on the asymmetric bars at the Olympic gym today and managed about a metre before I fell off. And got a blister on my palm.)

OK I'm in for Plank/Push-up challenge.
Will do it at lunchtime and scare entertain the cats :)

have achieved 20 second plank and 3 push ups, accompanied by a Mitchy jr :)

I did the plank, the push ups, some crunches AND some tricep dips.

so ner.
