Introducing Cadre Nate
This upcoming T3 will be a doozy. We're going to be having a new cadre at this event to doll out the punishment to our elite aspirants and returning elites alike. Here is a short bio:
Hi, my name is Nate Jacobs, I will be your cadre for the next T3. The December 19th T3 has officially begun. We now have 5 registered participants and the prechallenges start now. Yes, I know its 3 months away, but trust me you need the extra points and the training cannot hurt you.(too much).
Pre-Challenges
There will be many challenges ranging in difficulty and athletic ability. I do not expect everyone to be able to do all the challenges,but I do expect you to try. I understand that we all have jobs and are very busy and I will schedule longer challenges to include some weekend time. There will also be shorter challenges that I will expect a quicker response time. You will often have 2 challenges ahead of you at a time, they will have different start and due dates, just work them into your workout routine.
Perks
For the returning Elites, this will be a little different, so read up. There will be several perks and negative perks you will have a chance to unlock before December 19th. You will have to have 90% participation in a challenge to unlock a perk, there will be no minimum score but there will be a team average that must be met. I will give you an example.
6mile run is your challenge- the time hack is 66minutes. There are 5 people signed up for T3 when I issued the challenge. #1 runs it in 68 minutes , #2 - 50:, #3-66: #4-65: , #5 80:. Even though 2 didn't make the time hack the team averaged under 66,so its a pass. If #5 could not run at all then I would remove the fastest time and average the remaining 3 which would put them over the time hack and a perk would not be unlocked for that challenge. So everyone needs to try. If for some reason someone cannot perform a certain task either temporarily or ever, please let me know , I will make an alternate (not easier) exercise for you. IE. 6 mile run=12 mile bike ride( time doubled as well).
First challenge
This will be the only challenge without a time hack or goal attached to it. Everyone will do this challenge first, present enrollees and any new registers. It will be something you will be expected to do all day at the T3 so if you cannot do it now we better get to work. For 1 burpee point I want a 5mile ruck march, 10% body weight, it can be all water and you can drink it. All I want to see is some sort of GPS distance and time, of more than 5 miles on the team regiment page. Here's mine, I will be doing all the challenges with you. Once this challenge is complete. Each person will get their next challenge as they complete this one, so get them in quick, so you can start earning more points, you'll need them.
