I had originally balked at the amount of "work" needed to complete this challenge, but having completed it, it really isn't difficult. It's a bit of a stretch, as a challenge should be, but it isn't "hard" in the "how-will-I-ever-finish-it" sort of way.

That said, given the wide variety of things to do over birthday week, ten days was certainly more comfortable than seven. I appreciate the extended deadline, as I most likely would not have completed all the components on time. If I had, either the blog posts or the reviews wouldn't have made it to the finish line in a way I found enjoyable. I'd prefer my activities not be anxiety-inducing (or a slog). That has nothing to do with the activity directly, and more to do with how many things there are to do in that one-week period.

In terms of the activity itself, everything is laid out well, easy to follow and understands, and fun to complete.

Thanks for running this annual activity!
