Monday 9th May

After having the last two lessons off due to the bank holidays the girls knew they had some distance left to cover.  Most of the girls knew they had to at least cover over 5km in order for their score to be doubled to increase the chance of their team winning.  As a whole class they have covered 660.38 km, meaning they are at Goussainville, just 28 km outside of Paris.  After this lesson, the results are as follows:

4th Place:

Team: A, A, S and U

Total 29.48 km
Reached:  Loughborough

3rd Place:

Team: T, S, R and M
Total: 154.42 km

Reached:  Near Luton

2nd Place

Team: V, A, H and L

Total: 229.83 km

Reached: Brentwood

1st Place

B, J, H, S and J

Total: 268.65 km

Reached: Near Maidstone, Kent

Next lesson there will be a change to the rules to increase the chance of covering a greater distance.  New distances:

Over 4km  = Score doubled.

Over 6km = Score trebled.

Over 8 km = Score quadrupled.

Over 10km = multipled by 5 

Lets see if this encourages the teams to think about the tactics they may wish to adopt, what machines will you use to get the highest distance in a short amount of time? Will you run or walk on the treadmill?  Think carefully girls as this may influence your chance of winning!!!

Well done once more girls for a great lesson.  There is only 38.82 km between 1st place and 2nd place, but who will get there first?????  To be continued.....
