Master  2231    Des Moines, Iowa |  Subject: September challenge anyone ???????????Any ideas for a september challenge....my motivation is waning and a challenge always,....well..., challenges me. I've got something about running going through my head. Maybe having you're biggest running month of the year in September? ; but I'm open to anything... What do you think....? It's time for Team Kansas to make a comeback! |

Wow...200 would be cool and a stretch for me...big time. How about each member of a team setting their running mileage goal. Then having a total for the team? Just a thought.....

Science Nerd 28760  Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? I'm interested in a running challenge, but I know that 200 miles is just too much for me. I like the idea of each person setting a goal a bit better since it'll let more people do it. |

Extreme Veteran 423 Boston, MA | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? I'll be down for a running challenge. There is no way I can do the 200 mile challenge, but the regular goal setting challenge would be great. |

Member 68 | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? What about a bike challenge, for us midwest and northern folk, we're getting into the last good riding days. |

Cycling Guru 15134 Fulton, MD | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? Well ...... we had the 100+ club in July, then I threw out the 200+ club in August. So this is one of those "how much of a bad azz (or just plane insane) are you" kind of challenge. There have been a few running challenges this year that I've participated in. Same with cycling. For someone marathon training for a Fall mary. then 200 is a little bit of a stretch but not impossible. For the average tri. training, 200 would be ridiculous.  |

Champion 11641 Fairport, NY | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? Ellie - 2006-08-25 11:05 AM Run/bike challenge? No way can I do 200, but the idea of having your biggest month is Sept sounds cool... Run/bike? I'm in. Goals? My biggest month isn't good for me. Got an Oly on the 10th so there'll be at least one full week of decreased volume. I can commit to specfic numbers though.

Man...you're a machine!! Sounds like everyone is focusing on a bike/run challenge. We could total our miles for each and keep track of it weekly. Something like this?........ What's everyone think? Any other ways to make it fun?!

Expert 1092 Earth | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? I could be up for a run/bike challenge. I need to see what my 1/2 Mary training plan says and look at the other training I will be doing for my late Sept Tri. But this could be a good thing. I ignored the 100-200 mile run challenges, since my training only had under 50 miles in it. No since in risking an over use injury at this point in the process. |

Master 2231 Des Moines, Iowa | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? Here's what I have so far....
Both my goals exceed my run/bike totals for a month this year. Who else is in? The other folks who mentioned they might be are... MarmadaddyElliejknapmannOrcmattWsm9363Daremo...do you want to put in a bike number? Anybody else have any ideas to make it fun...anyone willing to contribute toward a prize? Perhaps everyone who reaches their goal can have their name put in a hat for a drawing? I would suggest we go from Sept 3 to 30(?) Sound o.k. I'm willing to do the work, since I need a LOT of motivation at this point.

| Master 1534 | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? I'll have to think about goals a little harder but is it alright if I have my goals a little more Bike focused? With XC this fall I'm not sure about the milage I'll get in / don't want running overload. |

Expert 1092 Earth | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? Ok I sat down last night and did some math, as well as thinking about the various races I have coming up. Run miles - 70 The run miles will be the most I have done in a month in a VERY long time. June bike totals were higher, heck the 3rd week of June was higher by itself. But I have to get 200 miles to have a hope of making my 2K for this year. |

Cycling Guru 15134 Fulton, MD | Subject: RE: September challenge anyone ??????????? I guess you can throw in 100 on the bike for me for good measure ..... And I at least will have to start with Sept. 1st. I'm scheduled for 205 running, and that includes like 25 before the 3rd. |

No problem....it's whatever you need to make it work :-) I'll write you in and wait until you figure out the goals. |

Sounds good Rick....I think since it's a month challenge it makes sense to begin with 9/1 for everyone. I'll make the change on my spreadsheet. Soooooo....We'll use the whole month of Sept... |
