On the 28th of November, it was session IV (Final Session) of the Djanogly Rat Race Nottingham to Paris Part II! The Group competition ended last week with all positions finalised and the final week was all about the Individual Competition!!

The Top 10 was revealed last week and a huge thank you to all students that voted. A total of 40 Votes were placed! Which was amazing to see!

The reason for the poll was for each member of the top ten to gain extra KM, the place that they finished in would then earn them extra KM.

2nd = 90km
3rd = 80km
4th = 70km
5th = 60km
6th = 50km
7th = 40km
8th = 30km
9th = 20km
10th = 10km

The Poll Standings were;
1st = Simran
2nd = Jess/ Jodie
4th = Merina
5th = Bilvania/ Hannah
7th = Victoria/ Devene/ Jacqueline

A staggering 703KM was covered by all teams beating Group 1's total of 562KM! which was a increase on last weeks total and the staggering TOTAL for all 4 weeks is 2,574KM  which powered past Group 1's total of 2,2200KM!!

Group II: Session III 21st November 2011

On the 21st of November, the Year 11 Girls experienced their third session of the 'Rat Race: Nottingham to Paris' in the Gym at the Djanogly Leisure Centre. It was a very competitive session and all pupils were full of energy striving to gain the bonuses on offer en route across the country.
The girls were aware of how well their team did the week before, as the team leader was emailed the link to the blog. The girls reflected on last weeks scores, they were told that the teams that gained the greatest distance in KM were the teams that had all members hit a bonus (at least x2). Teams then began talking and at least 7KM was the target for all students.

A whopping total of 768.46KM (Compared to 536.01KM from Group 1 in Term 1) was covered by the three teams competing!!

The girls were working together selecting which piece of equipment was the most effective from session 1 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 second session the scores are as follows;

3RD PLACE:

TEAM A (Jessica/ Lynn/ Hellen/ Victoria/ Stephania/ Devene/ Farhana)
TOTAL: 433.09KM
POSITION: Near Bethune, in France

2ND PLACE:

TEAM C (Jodie/ Jess/ Geetika/ Zaibah/ Simran/ Ogechukwu/ Rukhsar)
TOTAL: 711.04KM
POSITION: In Paris, France

1ST PLACE:

TEAM B (Bilvania/ Avanna/ Merina/ Hannah/ Jacqueline/ Ahsia)
TOTAL: 727.43KM
POSITION: In Paris, France

WELL DONE TO.......TEAM B!!

They have reached the destination of Paris!! An amazing effort by all team members who worked very hard to snatch Victory from Team C by 16.39KM!! This is the first time that two teams have reached Paris in Wk 3, which is an excellent achievement from both teams!!

Here are Team B's weekly totals!!
Week 1 = 205.27KM
Week 2 = 219.76KM

Week 3 = 302.40KM

The final placings in the team competition are now set but the individual competition rolls into the final week and it could all change in Session IV. Will TEAM B and C ease up after their team victory or will they push for extra KM in the individual competition?

It all comes down to the last session!!

Tomorrow the TOP 10 Individuals will be announced!! Will you be in the TOP 10??

Bring on Session Four on Monday!!
