AMAZING RACE 2010!!!!

Wii Warriors are in Hawaii!

Welcome to beeautiful Mauna Loa, Graceful Gazelles!

You have found a volcanic rock. You've decided it would be fun to throw the rock into the water but maybe even more fun to hit it with a golf club.
All team members will do the golf target practice once each. Once completed or 24 hours has passed, exercise 10 more hours to be able to pick another number.

Gazelles have completed the next 10 hours. Can we please choose 8!?

Thanks,
Denise

Yes, Denise. You can cart counting as of 7:14 AM.

Hawaii works just like the other states: exercise, box, challenge, exercise, box, challenge, exercise, and so on.

I believe the Gazelles challenge has expired- does that mean we now do 10 more hours and then pick another island?

Welcome to Montana, Wii Zoom.

Montana is nicknamed the Treasure State. You will look for pan for treasure by doing the Table Tilt Plus (or Table Tilt Advanced if you don't have Wii Fit Plus). Once each team member has completed this or 24 hours have passed you may continue on.

Your challenge will end at 11:45pm ET 10/13.

Wii Zoom has made it to Montana. We would like box #7 please. Please, oh pretty please, make it a good one!

Welcome to Montana, Wii Rock.

The first luge run in North America was built at Lolo Hot Springs on Lolo Pass in 1965. We don't have the luge so each team member will do the SNOWBOARD SLALOM advanced. Once member has done so or 24 hours have passed you may move on.

Your challenge will end at 10:39pm ET 10/13.

Wii Rock has reached Montana!

We will take lucky box #6

Anyone that is done with the race and would like to contribute feel free to help any of the teams out. You don't need to participate in challenges you can just contribute your time to any teams that have not made it to Hawaii. Valerie and I will keep an eye on teams to make sure that time is getting contributed equally.

Misprint in the spreadsheet. There are NO faceoff challenges in Montana so that there are no penalties on the way to Hawaii. Zoom continue to exercise. Git N Fit each member just needs to play 9 holes of golf.

Valerie, can you make adjustments on the team? I am headed back off to work.

Welcome to Montana, Wii Git N Fit!

You'll be facing Wii Zoom!

Golfers don’t pay any fees to use John’s Golf Course in Eureka Montana. Steve Espinoza built the nine-hole course at his home in the 1990s so his son John, who has a rare form of Down syndrome, could golf to his heart’s content. Each member on your team will play a 9-hole round of golf. Before the end of 24 hours your team must combine their scores and post the total. The team with the lowest score wins. If you have a team member who does not participate you must add a score of 56 for that team member. Once every team member has achieved this challenge or after 24 hours has passed, you will be able to continue your exercise time to complete your travel to the next destination.

Wii Git N Fit have arrived in Montana. We'll take Box #1 please.

Thanks for stepping up, Mary. Amy will let you know if you can help out a team.

my team has finished the race.
I'm willing to help out another team with exercise time and challenges if there is a team in need of another player.

Once everyone has done these exercises twice or 24 hours have passed you may continue on.
