During this semester, there has been a friendly challenge to encourage one of our very own Kairos 3 leader to lose a certain amount of weight by June 2009. We’ll just call him Brother K on condition of anonymity.
The challenge is simple: Brother K needs to lose a predetermined amount of weight by June 2009. If he does not, his friends like Andy in Kairos 2 and Tony in Kairos 1, who agreed to keep him accountable will need to ante up an unspecified amount, each, into the Kairos fund. And as consolation, I will treat Brother K and Kairos 3 staff to Fresh Choice to eat some healthy humble pie in the spirit of oneness.
On the other hand, if Brother K loses the required weight by June 2009, I will treat Brother K and Kairos 3 staff to Fresh Choice to celebrate his hard earned work.
There have been sightings of Brother K running through the mean streets of Alameda as his main mode of transportation.
I overheard someone say to Brother K, “Wow, if you pull this off, you could very well be the poster child of determination, excellence and healthy living.”
So 3 weeks 7 weeks (extension) away… what do you think will happen? Sound off…

This is a certain Brother A from Kairos 2
I think Ken is going to make it!! Though he actually has to the end of the month so that would be 7 weeks.
Finally, as one of the ppl that may get penalized if he doesn’t make it, I appeal to a certain Richard to also treat me and Brother T out to fresh choice! HAHA!

You bet!
I LOVE Fresh Choice – everything from the sourdough bread with honey butter to ceasar salad to the vibrant colors on the walls… I give them a WOW plus!
Go KEN!

Yea, the Brother A Plan has been working pretty well: running 4 miles each day and no soda/juice. We were in despair, but now we have hope again!
