10-9 Day International Stay At Home Messenger Work Day Championship
All submissions can only be submitted during your time zone's 10/09/14 (or 09/10/14 if you're from most of the world). The manifest has gone live in time for Sydney to participate with a full work day, when in happens to be Wednesday afternoon here in NY. But NY'ers can't submit any information until it's 12:01 AM on 10/9 in NY and Australians cant submit answers when it's 10/10.  Yes, yes, I understand you are neither Australian or from NY.  How nice for you! You can still only submit answers between midnight until 11:59PM on October 9th in your time zone.  

A lot of this concept is "honor" based, so cheating is really easy.  Maybe it's even encouraged.  I haven't decided yet.  I didn't talk to any sponsors, so there is no prizes, just glory.  

Shit, this is already more complicated than I expected.  Lets make some easy points happen!

RIDING BIKE CHECKPOINTS
YES, You have to ride a bike for this race.  Sorry to disappoint you.  Not all the points are for answering basic questions. Most of the points are. But not all.  You can either use a cyclometer or use Strava, or Map My Ride, or whatever else measures things like distance and speed on a bicycle.  Points will be awarded based on the numbers provided.

If you decide to use Strava, please join our "cycling club" for the event at http://www.strava.com/clubs/tennineday
THE COMMUTE *
The distance from your house (or wherever your slept last night) until wherever you check in.  If you took the train, drove, or checked in from home, the answer is ZERO. I guess it can be the distance you rode to the train for you Northern California types and other people that are actually physically incapable of riding all the way to work
I'M SO FAST *
It's hard to believe how fast I am.  Because I'm so fast.  My top speed today was
I'M SO CONSISTENT *
It's hard to believe how fast I am.  I'm consistently fast. My average speed today was
THIS HILL SUCKS *
Oh many, this is hill is totally crazy! It's a crazy hill.  I have to ride up and down this thing over and over and over again.  The elevation change of your biggest climb was :
MY JOB RULES (part 1) *

OH MAN (I meant), that run kicked ass! I got paid ____ (include currency in answer)
WHAT A LONG DAY *
OH GODDMAN MY MAN, that day was so long.  I mean really, really long.  I rode my bike SO DAMNED MUCH.  In fact i rode my bike this far today:
STAR TREK 4 (THE VOTAGE HOME) *
Now that all bike riding for work is done it's time to hang out with the homies.  Sup Girls? Damn you look good in those shorts boy! The distance from your last drop (or the office) to the bar or wherever the 10-9 Party is happening :
#SOCIALMEDIA
For all of these, please post a photo to instagram with the hashtag in the following format:  #109race14_checkpointname.  So, if the checkpoint was, say, named "#DamnILoveTheWhitesnake" the hashtag would be  #109race14_DamnILoveTheWhitesnake.  Social media submissions without the proper tag will not be scored.  

Hate the Zuck? Fuck the social media? That's cool.  Email your photo submissions to tennineday@gmail.com.  Put the checkpoint name in the subject line.  

All entries will be scored by our panel of celebrity messenger judges and points will be awarded in some manner or fashion.  
#HOTNIGHT *
Oh man, I finished work on wednesday and I was tired.  Somehow I still ended up at the bar.  And now it's after midnight and suddenly it's 10-9 AND IM STILL AT THE BAR. Shit.  Document that somehow
#HOTMORNING *
Oh.  This.  Hangover.  Sucks.  This is a photo of where i woke up.
#HOTRECEPTIONIST *
I'm so cool, I get to hang out and kick with this HOT RECEPTIONIST.  Here's a photo of me with the hottest receptionist/messenger center employee/client I know.  
#HOTLUNCH *
All this bike riding is making me hungry.  Im soooooo hungry.  Why is there nothing to eat in here? This is what i had for lunch.  What? Cigarettes and beer isn't lunch? Who says?
#HOTBATHROOM *
Oh man, this bathroom is nice.  It's nicer than my joint at home.  Hell, it's nicer than my entire flat.  Can i live in here? Here's a photo of how nice it is.  Please include a description of what the soap smelled like in the comments.
#HOTSTREETS *
My City is the best! It's so cool when i get to do this thing that i can only do in this city.  No one else anywhere can do anything like this! It's so cool! Check out how cool it is.
#HOTSPANDEX *
This is my uniform.  Selfie Time!   Fuck, i feel dirty for using the word "selfie"
#HOTCOPS *
Here in NYC we spend A LOT of time dealing with the cops.  They give us tickets for pretty much everything, even things that aren't against the law.  I think maybe they just think we're cute and they want some loving.  Take a photo with your favorite civil servant.  Or, I guess anyone that carries a weapon for work.  I mean as part of their job, not just cause they ride around with a handgun like a crazy person. ('sup lil John?)
#HOTMONEYMAKER *
My Whip.  Damn my bike is cool. My bike is cooler than all the other bikes in the whole wide world.
#HOTMESS *
Oh I got a flat. Or my brake cable snapped. Or the receptionist I like wouldn't take a picture with me. Or the cop gave me a ticket. Here's my sad face that's worthy of an emoticon.
#HOTMODERNLIFEISRUBBISH *
All this GPSing hashtagging and facebookery has totally killed my battery and now dispatch can't reach me. Oh well. My phone has ___% left at the end of the day.   Yeah, you could just use a screenshot, but figure out something more exciting.  I'm not going to hold your hand here.  Okay, i will, but you have to come visit me first.
#HOTSTRUGGLE *
Here's a photo of my crew.  It's everyone who participated in this nonsense.  Or it's some of them.  Whatever.  Here's my boys.  My girls.  My people.  My family.
#HOTMONSTERSTANDBY2 *
We already did an entire race dedicated to standby.  Some of the checkpoints here are just rehashed monster standby checkpoints.  I don't know, i can't really think of anything new, the manifest for that was like 40 pages long.  Improvise something.  Something most chill.  
Required
THIS IS THE END *
Well, that's it. It'll take me a few days to compile scores, but I'll announce results some time next week.  Maybe.  Do you want to give away prizes? You should do that.  Have a raffle. I don't know.  Here in NY, I'm tending bar at the second chance.  I'll have $2 beer until 9 o'clock.  Maybe I'll give away a bar tab.  Maybe not.
