Everyone who wants in on the ACC (Atlantic Coast Conference) team, post here as I guess I'm it as the team captain.

I'm here representing the Terps (as an undergrad. alumni - c/o '98).

I guess I'll throw out 250 miles for my "pledge" to the team.

A BIKE challenge?  Oh, I forgot...there is biking in triathlons

I'll give it a try in honor of my ACC alma mater,  Virginia Tech!  I'm a true beginner in this area, so my goal will be 100 miles.  (I'm figuring a 10-mile ride 2X/week might be manageable?)

Alright, we've got five people so far, a respectable showing for getting a late start.

Just get out there and do your best. One thing I am NOT afraid of is riding on the trainer, so I'll be putting my miles in as needed.

I just need this stupid virus/bug to go away .......

Okay, I just Pmed the Big East leader about changing over.  As long as there are no rule violations I think I am going to defect and join the right team for a Hokie (class of '00).   

I pledge a very ambitious 25 hours.  I refuse to admit to the mileage behind that though because most of it will be logged on a very slow hilly commute.  (I swear it is the lights that make it take forever.  It definitely isn't that I can barely make it up the hills...)

Bring it ... the more the merrier as this whole challenge thing works.

Last month, I upped by run volume by at least 20%.  This month I have already spent 102 miles in the saddle within the first 5 days.

Edit:

Scrolled up and saw the goal of 10 hours for the month ... I'll add that to the list.

Okay, I've updated huengsolo's spreadsheet to put us in the system. Here it is for your viewing pleasure.

I promise I'll be on the bike again this week. It is supposed to be really nice this weekend so I'll be able to get some outside miles in!

Alright team, we're suckin' hind teet here ...... I know a lot of that is my fault at not having put in any miles yet. But let's make sure we keep up our rides and stay motivated!

I WILL ride tonight for 20 miles to get on the board (my usual Tues. night ride).

Life got in the way and I couldn't ride. I'll make my numbers .... don't worry, just not in the ways that I wanted to - I'll have to do some longer rides than planned, that's all!
