Session One 4th of November 2010

On the 4th of November, the Year 11 Girls experienced their first 'Rat Race: Nottingham to Paris' in the Gym at the Djanogly Leisure Centre. It was a very successful session and the pupils were full of energy striving to gain the bonuses on offer.
A whopping total of 476.83KM was covered by the four teams competing. The girls were working together selecting strategies in their teams choosing which piece of equipment to use and how long to stay on for e.g. Treadmill/ Exercise Bike/ Rowing Machine etc. All teams worked very hard and at the end of the session all of the individual scores were recorded and totalled. After the first session the scores are as follows;
4th Place:

Spongebob Circle Pants : )
TOTAL = 26.02KM
POSITION = Outside 'Syston' (Near Leicester)

3rd Place:

Six Lions
TOTAL = 118.85KM
POSITION = Near Limbury (Between Bedford and Luton)

2nd Place:

Barbie Girls
TOTAL = 155.70KM
POSITION = In Bushey Heath (Outside Watford)

1st Place:

Lanasujoja
TOTAL = 176.26KM

POSITION = In Camden Town (Near Central London)

We also had some amazing individual scores and the top 3 are;

1st = 68.48KM (x4 Bonus)

2nd = 49.20KM (x4 Bonus)

3rd = 48.00KM (x4 Bonus)

The names of pupils that recorded these scores will remain anonymous until Session 4 and then full leaderboard will be published. The winner then will be awarded their prize for the outstanding contribution they have given to their group and also the benefits they have gained from the workouts.

Excellent start to the 'Rat Race: Nottingham to Paris'! Will Spongebob Circle Pants : ) catch Six Lions and will Lanasujoja still be the team to catch? Bring on Session Two on Thursday!
