AlexCold Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Ladies and Gentlemen! After thinking I was done, my son woke me up at 4am and I took it as a sign. That sign was he needed a bottle and diaper change. Irrelevant I know, but then I realized the time and I got to work. I watched this video first.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyJgTTUoBDk Then pumped out 35 minutes over the next hour. Then I made pumpkin dark chocolate cookies for employee appreciation day (ok, the wife made them, but I helped!!). Now excuse me as I go tape my left calf muscle back to my leg. Seriously, epic cramp time. Quote Pinterest: Alex's Paleo Wins - Recipes on Pinterest Instagram: alexcold23 MFP: dalex916 Link to comment

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 We interrupt your regularly interrupted interruption to bring you this interruption: AlexCold, who was once described as the man who would help you find your keys if you lost them has won the 2013 Nerd Fitness PvP Jump Rope Challenge Extravaganza. What was seen as a relieving move from Batwoman and JitterThe.Clown, Alex went for 35 minutes this morning to prove you don't have to be crazy to be a member of this board, but it is a requirement for this challenge. We congratulate Alex on his success and we are eager to hear of everyone else finishing (hint hint everybody).

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I am going to continue to jump. I am going to get a piece of rope from my maintenance department and finish my 60 at lunch today. Then it's put away till Monday. Good job Alex!

Batwoman Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I will finish my hour and use jump rope as my warm-up before my body-weight work outs, but definitely going to take tonight to stretch and recover a little bit.

Jitters your news casts are Legen-(wait for it)-DARY! Congrats Alex!Thanks, I'm hoping to get picked up by CNN or some such network. Something national would be good. Though now that I think about it, NF is global. Take that newscasts! I will finish my hour and use jump rope as my warm-up before my body-weight work outs, but definitely going to take tonight to stretch and recover a little bit.Good call on that. I'm using the rope as my 20 minutes of cardio for my next challenge. Looking forward to that.

Dr. Kate Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Excellent craziness, Alex. Did 5 minutes this morning. Or rather 140 jumps X 5. Normal cadence for me is 140/minute, and I find it easier to count than to bother with a clock. I'll do more later. Will get to the 60. If for no other reason than to give Jitters more fodder for reportage. Quote Dr. Mrs. Kate Murry - Not a Dr. named Kate, nor do I have red hair, but I do have microbiology cred.

Jittersthe.Clown Posted November 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Good afternoon and welcome to your after lunch report on NF News 42. I am your host, Jitters "What the hell was I thinking" The. Clown Well, AlexCold is our Champ for the Challenge, but our other contestants just wont quit. Dr. Kate put up another 5 minutes of jumping this morning bringing her total to 11 minutes, or 1,540 jumps for those keeping track at home. Jitters has no idea how many jumps he made, but finished his 60 minutes with a plain rope from his place of business on his lunch break. The other workers thought he was having a stroke, but when paramedics arrived, they found him to be in good shape. Up next, 'Can I get a What What' Quote Level 2 Warforged Druid STR: 2, DEX: 1, STA: 3, CON: 3, WIS: 2, CHA: 3 "If these people tell this story to their children as they sleep; then maybe someday they'll see a hero is just a man who knows he is free."

If for no other reason than to give Jitters more fodder for reportage. Holy Crap! I'm definitely not doing 140 jumps a minute. You win! I'm more at like 75, I just can't coordinate the rope enough to jump with it that fast. I'm sure I can jump that fast, just not with a rope. And really, thanks to all of you guys and gals. I'm very competitive and wouldn't have done it if I didn't feel threatened. And to be even more honest, thanks for all the cheering and positiveness. You people sure know how to motivate! I think I will keep jumping just not in the near future, my calves are way tight. I mean, epic I drank a fifth of tequila and my calf is cramping so tight I scream bloody murder tight. (BTW..If I drink a ton my calves charley horse bad.) And Jitters, you da man! Give it up to our host!

JessFit Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Alex, hope your calves feel better! Jitters has been a fantastic host! Just because we have a couple winners doesn't mean the rest of us get to give up! I expect to see totals on here tomorrow!
