This idea is still in the proto-stages, I'm mostly trying to gauge interest.
Throughout 2020 and into 2021 I've been extremely physically idle. I've stayed home, I've stayed indoors, and due to a variety of reasons I've had very little physical activity. That's been awful for my health and well being, and I'm sure I'm not even close to alone there. I need to get into a less round, out of breath shape, and there's no better motivation than gamifying it.
Here's what I'd like to do. Whomever wants to participate in this contest would kick in $10 to a prize pot. I'll add in a Golden Fleece from my collection. Then we have a race, total distance to be determined. If the distance from the Sweetwoods to Shyport is long enough we'll use that, if it's not I'll pick another long distance from a fantasy world. I want something that's at least a few hundred miles. Distance is eaten by using a rowing machine, treadmill, eliptical, or running in real life using a distance tracker. You can send in screenshots with your distance, which I'll add daily to a Google Sheets so we know where everyone is in the race. Whomever finishes first gets to pick their price, whoever finishes second gets the other prize.
Who would be interested in a competition like this?
