1. Selected HIC's need to be equally measureable. That means they need to be "for time" or "AMRAP" (as many rounds as possible). HICs with built in rest times might not fit this very well, or things that are highly variable such as hill runs.
2. Selected HIC's should take gear ownership into account. Not all of us have kettlebells we can take to the track. So HICs that have sprints or runs probably shouldn't require more than a pull-up bar (available at most tracks) for the other movements. HICs that involve gear like kettlbells and barbells (which most people have access to at a gym or home gym) shouldn't involve running work because most people don't have tracks at their gym/home gym.
3. Rotate through modalities to give different people with different strengths their time to shine. For example HICs with running one month; and HIC's with, for example, heavy kettlebell swings or pull-ups another month.
Unfortunately I only found 4 HIC's in the book that fit the above requirements: Connaught, Fast 5, GC2, and GC7. So we might have to get creative, but I don't think it would be too much trouble.
I think there should be a winner each month, because we're all a little competitive, but in the end it's just for fun. If there's enough interest hopefully a moderator can champion this and take it over.
I think once a month is good because it's infrequent enough to get excited about, gives people time to do it, and I know a lot of us have specific HIC's we're working on so once a month is infrequent enough to not interfere with regular training.
Just an idea. I'm pretty terrible at HIC's, but I think it would had fun. If anyone else is interested please say so
