Worldwide Disaster Day 2021 "Official" Thread

Hey all. Threw together an initial interest form for group workouts for WWDD on Dec 11.

https://forms.gle/cGMSEjrSyuQ5DFCp8

More to come. Suggest joining the discord if you want to do other group workouts as well

Something to get the creative juices flowing. Maybe encourage a couple of suggestions… :+1:

I prefer the old one to this one sorry

Awesome! I like it a lot.

I do feel it should have something about “Not Recommended” with the appropriate icon to go with it. :grimacing: maybe rather than “Recommended: No”

Love this concept :100:

  • TR has branding guidelines that govern the use of their logo, so you might want to double-check those or drop the logo completely and save yourself the headache :sweat_smile: It’s all very #iykyk anyway.
  • The text along the top is pretty tiny. What would that look like if you moved it off the front and onto the back, along the shoulders or bottom hemline?

Having completed Disaster in 2019, I have Disaster written into my plan on one of the days before Christmas. I guess that makes no difference to anyone else.

What is the situation on the T-shirts UK wise? Order date? Cost? Shipping? Can I order afterwards If I succeed? (I would not want it if I fail the workout)

The Disaster t-shirt link should remain up year-round as far as I’m aware. So whenever you finish, you should be able to order!

I’ve got in touch with Nate and Jonathan to get their approval. Will let you know when they get back to me!

Do not like this design. Blue on black. It’s the only way.

:flushed: Blue…and black…never.

Have you got the original image handy? Mind DMing it to me and maybe I can play around with a few things.

Not a problem. It’s in Adobe Illustrator. Does that work for you?

No worries. I’m hoping that a few other designers with a range of suggestions might come out of the woodwork :+1:

Not a designer but the big block of red (well any colour) doesn’t do it for me. My suggestion: Just have the outline of the workout in whatever colour, have one digit of 2021 in each of the four threshold blocks, “Disaster” inside the block starting at 1hr50 and “Survivor” in the block under the fireworks section.

Another vote for blue and black, the colors of training with TrainerRoad.

Question: the old shirt appears to say 2018 on it. Is that correct? It’s hard to read.

is there a listing of the pre-dominant start times and how many folks are planning to ride then?

This is the current breakdown based on the Google form (only 11 so far). Will make a post that I will keep as UTD as possible today or tomorrow. The preponderance of people are opting for the full with a few for the -2 or -1 versions

I think that this year I’ll finally be able to ride Disaster, but not the full one because I’m still basically in the off-season and I don’t want to risk getting an injury or something. I’ll see how I’ll feel in the next two weeks since I’ll begin to do some more structured rides, the -2 version looks challenging but doable, whereas finishing the -1 one would be a proper feat for me right now.

But you never know, maybe in two weeks time I’ll hate myself enough to try the -1 and then fail miserably in the 90/90s at VO2 :rofl:

Still hoping for an answer to this question.

I ordered the shirt and it arrived today. I can confirm it does say 2018 :+1:t2:
