Elite  3144    |  Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challegebillsorg - 2009-12-23 6:23 AM The trash talk continues! I put this on the Vixens and Cookies threads this morning... Twas two days before Christmas, And all through the Gym, Only Evil Elves could be found, Vixens & Cookies were nowhere around The other teams were nestled all snug in their beds, Their tummies were filled with wines... whites and reds. When suddenly in the pool there arose such a clap That was the Elves swimming hard, lap upon lap, The Elves had piled up miles, of running and biking, They had destroyed the competition, not to the their liking, And the Elves were victorious, and it felt so right, Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night! That's great Bill! Looks like you've got more than enough creativity to make up for my utter and complete lack of any  |

Elite 3144 | Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challege Merry Christmas Eve Elves! I got a CRAPPY 5 mile tempo run in today. It wasn't a thing of beauty, but I got it done. Saturday I will be doing a pace run along the same route and I'm hoping for some redemption. Maybe I'll take it easy on the egg nog in preparation... (or not) |

Extreme Veteran 532 Northampton, UK | Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challege Morning all and Merry Christmas! I hope you all got what you wanted. I got a load of swimming stuff and a tri suit, so I'm pretty happy Got a nice ride in this morning (expect for a couple of problems with the rear deraileur which may need me to completely replace the gears or just fork out for a new bike). Does anyone know if Chezz is still around as I'm sure his workouts haven't changed in at least a couple of weeks? |

On page 11, 12/18 Chezz wrote: "I am going to Guatemala next week and may be kind of MIA, but will try to get my logs on. I am behind on the run, but that does not concern me as I will be able to run a lot in the next couple of weeks" I think we are going to have to wait until he returns so we can see if he has been getting his work in. |

Elite 3144 | Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challege Hello Evil Elves! I had a very good 5 mile pace run today and will be doing my first 10 miler tomorrow. That will bring me to my run goal for the month, but I plan on doing plenty of extra credit next week as well. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! |

My month was CRAP. Between throwing my back out and getting sick i have not had a great December. I will work my tail off until the end of the month,,,,,,but i will most likely not reach 100% of my goals. I will get as close as humanly possible though ok?? She says plaintively..........  |

Way to go MD. Whereas I had to slow down to a walk for part of my run for the first time in ages this morning (but still got a run in, which is all that counts here )Edit: Having updated my spreadsheet entries and checked the calendar, I should reach 105% on both my targets Edited by sicone 2009-12-27 3:30 AM |

Pro 4343 Olney, MD | Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challege December 27, the snow is almost completely gone, finally got my first outdoor ride for December! Sunny, temps into the low 40's, headwind for the first 10 miles; it felt so good to be outside riding! Road tired beats roller tired any day! I'm 12 miles from goal and will pick that up this week for sure. |

Pro 4482 NJ | Subject: RE: Evil Elves - Du-December Challege Hi Elves. Sorry I've been MIA. Flu was pretty brutal. On the upside, I didn't gain any X-mas weight. Not much appetite for anything. I'm still not 100%. I may try to get a workout or two in this week, but won't hit my goals. Sorry about that, but going to take it slow. If you need to drop me, I understand. |

If you need to drop me, I understand. Why don't we get you a sickness goal reduction? How many days were you sick and unable to train? Take that number, divide by 31, and reduce your goals by that percentage. Let me know if this is what you want to do. |

I'll keep my swim goal as is. I'd set it light as I wasn't going to have pool access Christmas week, which was most of my down time. I'll adjust the other and push to get it done. Thanks! Thanks. |
