Thanks - though might not be thanking you a couple hours in!!!
46 crazy people so far
Thx for counting. I was wondering and hadn’t gotten to it yet.
Would be cool if we got 50 total for starters.
#47 - I’m in! Either 6:00 eastern or 10:00 eastern, depending on what the boss says.
Also, how do we create a strava challenge? This should definitely be a strava challenge for finishing. Just like getting a finisher medal at a non-virtual event.
No idea on Strava challenges. Most I have seen are corporate.
I am working on a small Reward for 2 levels.
- A sticker for all who attempt the workout.
- An aluminum emblem / medal for all who get about 75% completion.
It may be something like the D-flame logo above.
Unfortunately my ramp test gave me a 15 watt bump to my FTP, which means this is going to hurt a lot more.
I think the biggest challenge will be cooling. I will have an AC on full blast as well as a small tower fan next to me. Even with this, after the one hour point during normal workouts A puddle emerges, my shoes are soaked and everything is nasty. Perhaps I will allow myself one to two breaks to change outfit and towels. Shoes will remain as an issue.
Yeah, cooling will be important, IMHO.
I have access to a window and will likely have plenty of cool air, along with my 3 fans.
A change of kit makes sense of you get foray soaked either way.
Just did the half. In.
Well done. I have the Half set for next weekend.
@jonbar123 I’m sure there will be overlap, but there are 38 going via Facebook and 95 (!) interested, so I suspect we’ll get to 50 starters easily.
Def sounds like it!
I still would love to hear the story of how this workout came to be in the first place. Anyone know the whole story? @chad?
This is what we already know (posted by Chad earlier in this thread)
No one wakes up in the morning and decides to make this. It had to come from a dark, painful place.
Probably before he found new life in the wonderful world of IPA’s
I reckon we all have a celebratory toast after. Worldwide Disaster + worldwide TR toast?
In, 1:00pm or 2:00pm GMT depending on my buddy recovering from back injury, 2:00pm if he does it with me otherwise 1pm. We might do the workout in the same space if he is recovered enough.
Got you added
Disaster half done and dusted. Loved every second of it. Roll on Dec 15! Thanks @mcneese.chad!
