I am hooked to these events because I enjoy viewing all the things I could never manage myself. We watch all these Marvel superheros in the movies when there are real superheroes out there. People who can perform hurculean feats. I have such admiration for anyone that reaches this level.
They should have an Olympics for writers. It could have such competitions as:Endurance Writing - Maximum word count in a single seating.
Marathon Writing - 26.1 miles on a writer's treadmill.
Writer's reach - Maximum stretch length to retrieve a much-needed pile of notes on that book cabinet you can just barely reach without standing up from your desk.
Writer's stare down - Who can stare at a single word the longest.
Writer's coffee challenge - Who can drink the most coffee without running to the bathroom during a pivotal scene.
What do you think? I'd slay the coffee challenge! I can wiggle in place for at least a half hour after three cups of coffee.

Fun post, Maureen, thanks. I would tune in to watch you writing while walking on a treadmill and wearing a sequined dress. And maybe singing.
Hahaha - I love this, Maureen! Let's go for the gold! And we don't even have to wait four years for the next opportunity to roll around! ;)
Woot! I'm in for everything but the treadmill desk. I can hardly type to begin with and I certainly can't type and walk and think of words at the same time.
Maybe we could have desk-front weightlifting. A full coffee mug in each hand, and see how many reps we can lift them. :)
I'll join. May have a chance for gold when it comes to coffee.
