This document describes an elastic rubber band triathlon game that can be played between flatmates. The 3 events are: 1) a finger race where players race while keeping their fingers on the ground, 2) throwing rubber bands to land on a wine bottle neck, and 3) jumping corks over a rubber band goal. Players earn points in each event and the one with the most total points wins and avoids cooking duties.

1. Elastic Triathlon
What you need:
Elastic rubber bands
2 small bottles and their cork
(for the videos please see extra video file)

2. We all have them somewhere in the last corner of our drawers
in the kitchen: rubber bands. So why not using them for a mini
triathlon between flatmates?

3. Demonstration:
Game 1:
Twist the ruber band around your first and second finger, determine a start line and take a ruler as the finish line.
3-2-1 and start the race. The important thing here is not to „fly“ with your fingers: You‘re not allowed to have
bother fingers detached from the ground at any time!

4. Demonstration:
Game 2:
Take the wine bottle that you opened together with your flatmates and put it one arm length away from you.
Now, one after the other try to throw your rubber band ofer the bottle neck. You have 3 attempts, the one who
striked the bottle most of the times automatically wins this round.

5. Demonstration:
Game 3:
Now please take the second bottle and construct come kind of a goal with the rubberband. Now it is your turn
to let the cork clear the bar. You have 3 attempts, the one who manages to jump over the obstable most of the
time has won this round.

6. Finish Line:
Count all the points you got in the various games and as usual - the one with the maximum
points wins and the one with the least points cooks next time!
