trendywendypdx Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 It's funny...I don't think I'm particularly competitive but I do tend to do well at things I take on. I guess I just have high expectations for myself/my performance and if I end up beating someone out, that's fine but it's not a motivator for me. Maybe that just means I'm only competitive with myself? I am totally behind there being a winner in life (you know how much I love my Timbers), it's just not MY motivation, if that makes sense. Thinking about this fascinates me; what motivates everyone. Quote level 6 ranger Current Challenge Fifth | Fourth | Third | Second | First Battle Log Link to comment
holycalude Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 If I can run for an hour without stopping, why couldnt I jump-rope for an hour without stopping? Also, I also dislike that "everybody wins" mentality, so kudos to all of you.

Thinking about this fascinates me; what motivates everyone.I am usually motivated by things that entertain me. Surprisingly, working out falls into that because I make it interesting. I will gladly lose a game if I do it in an amusing manor, but I will also set up my wins with just as much entertainment. I've been told it's hard to pick me for a team because you never know how things are going to turn out. I have a lot of randomness in me. For instance, I was rolling up a new D&D character and the DM asked for his name. I told him it was Zok. He asked "Z - O - K?" My reply; "He's fine!" (Say it out loud and it makes sense). I wasn't expecting it to come up, but I'm glad it did.

Batwoman Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Wait, woah! What happened to cute jitters? Where did creepy jitters come from? Funny I find the Riddler pic less creepy. No offense Jitters... just me and clowns. Riddle me this: What type of cheese is made backwards? Well.. there is no cheese that is processed backwards.

Batwoman Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Regretting it a little bit today, but I did 30 minutes of jump rope in 5 minute intervals. I'd like to thank the Ramones for their bounce worthy music. Quote I'm a time traveler, but I can only go one way and only a second at a time. Link to comment
JessFit Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Woah, not sure if anyone else had an epic jumping night but it looks like Batwoman is catching up on Jitters pretty closely... someone takes competition seriously! Makes it all that much more fun hehe. Still it seems like Jitters did just enough last night to hang on to the lead... In another note: my calves are a little twingy todat but not nearly as bad as I had expected considering 25 minutes of jump time Quote Warrior, Ravenclaw, book lover, history nerd, Red Sonja wannabe Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I did not see that Jitters got an extra 10 minutes in... He must be aware of my crazy.A little, yes, but also I have a hard time saying no to my kids when they want to work out. I just hope no one wants to do anything today... I'm so close though. Do I risk overdoing it and go for the last 10 minutes tonight, or do I rest and feel better tomorrow? To be fair, the TCNF Meet up is Saturday, so if I finish tonight, I would be fine for that... Hmmm.... I just don't know that I could do it at this point...

holycalude Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 15 minutes in, used it as a warmup.I really think it's fun, even more with some Rocky OST music. hahaha!BUT the intensity is higher than just running (at least for me) so I had a hard time keeping my breath.

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 And now Sports with Jitters. Thank you Jitters, and welcome everyone to Sports with Jitters. Overnight we saw large patches of darkness that continued on until the morning... WHO THE HELL REPLACED MY REPORT WITH THE WEATHER!? I SEE YOU OVER THERE JITTERS! YOU CAN'T HIDE IN THAT BATH ROOM FOREVER! Ah, here we go. A Doctor was on scene last night posting 6 minutes total since Monday. Welcome to the insanity Dr. Kate! There was some epic jumping going on with JessFit and Batwoman overnight with 25 minutes and 30 minutes respectively. JessFit has been rumored to have had help from her cats getting her calves 'twingy', but this reporter would never speculate without hard proof. And really, cats? Like they know anything about jumping rope... Batwoman has been quoted using the term 'bounce worthy' and that amuses me greatly. It will be a regular part of some of my reporting now. Thank you Batwoman. Jitters had a momentary loss of common sense and decided to jump with his son for 10 minutes (after which his son kept going for another 45 minutes... the kid is insane. I think he might win and he's not even playing!) Holycalude came in with an impressive 15 minutes to bring him up to 15 minutes. Rocky has never been played in my house, but it will be now. That's all for sports for now. We now turn it over to the weather with Jitters. I'LL SMACK YOU UP SIDE YOUR HEAD YOU DIRTY CLOWN!
