RE: Steemit Ultra Marathon – Game one – round one
I'm a bit bummed that I missed the signup period. It would have been awesome if the contest was how far people ran on strava that day :P

you can always catch the next game. And if you follow this one you'll have a head start because you will see what works and what doesn't :-)
As for how far people ran on Strava - yup use that as a guide. I've also added in some modifiers based on my experience in the race. And to be very clear - my times were WAY slower than those people on Strava ;-)
I was referring to a contest where we would post our recorded runs during a whole week for example and there would be prizes for the most km ran that week, largest altitude gained, most time spent running etc. It would get people to actually run :)
Hmmm.......... that has merit ;-)
I'll see what I can come up with. I want to make it fair and possible for anyone to play and win. Not everyone on here is an ultra runner.
It's not a huge deal for me to run 40kms with 1800 metres of elevation gain on a Saturday, but that may not be everyone's cup of tea.
But if I made a bunch of categories so people could enter into their favourite categories and have a chance of winning, that might be fun. e.g. best selfie of running with a cat
Or dirtiest bum / shoes, wettest run, stuff like that.
Then the hard core runners can go for distance and elevation, and the social runners can go for the fun categories.
What do you think?
That would be super awesome :D I would definitely be in with a chance for the dirtiest with the muddy trails around where I live :)
