Team Hippo Challenge

Team Hippo is gearing up for the USAT winter challenge. In order to get people on board We are doing a scavenger hunt/ membership call. If you are interested in what is probably the only tri club who focuses on the Clyde Athena world while accepting everyone we are here.

The scavenger hunt list begins today and runs from now until December 1st. This is part of the annual team hippo challenge. Here's how it works- you take a photo of everything on the list and mail it to teamhipomultisport@gmail.com. We'll post them to our facebook group (yes we are on facebook). The more stuff you send the better it is. Any picture that you are in is worth double points. Additionally logging 10000yd swimming, 100 miles on the bike and 12 miles on the run is worth 100 points. Here's the List (notice there are 31 items so 1 a day plus a freebie)

This is the prelude to get everyone psyched for the USAT winter club challenge Swim in December, Bike in January, Run in February. I'm working on getting some team sponsors but in order to do that we need to show them that we have a team and it's worth their time. So help us help you.
