Expert 932  Madison | Subject: RE: Cold Turkeys - November Challenge Happy Thursday (although it's almost over) - I'm heading out of town tomorrow to Chicago with some girlfriends, so if wine drinking counts, I will certainly reach my goal.... I did double up today on the workouts (well 1 and 3/4) I'm tired now. I'll also get some swimming in tomorrow before I head out. I do have a 0% in my trainer rides, but promise to get on them next week. Otherwise, I think I am ahead for the month. Have a great Friday and a great weekend Cold Turkeys! |

Expert 4269 | Subject: RE: Cold Turkeys - November Challenge Hi Turkeys: I'm sorry for being such a slacker but the truth is that I injured myself 2 weeks ago. Not to go into too much detail but I messed my knee up thanks to some overuse issues - tendinitis and bursitis. My PT told me then to rest and rest I have (the good weather has made it really hard). I saw her again tonight and she said I could continue my training but at a greatly reduced rate. So the question is - what do I do about my goals? I'd like to scale them back to help motivate myself to keep going with my recovery. Would everyone be cool with this - so late in the game? Let me know what you want me to do. Thanks, DQ |

Thanks, DQ Dee's rules are generally that you can reduce your goals proportionally to the time you've been injured and unable to train; e.g., if you missed 12 days you'd reduce your goals by 12/30%=40% |

Expert 4269 | Subject: RE: Cold Turkeys - November Challenge Thanks to you all for your kind wishes- but I'm dropping out of the challenge. After a little PT last night, I felt like I was on the mend last night after 2 weeks on the DL. The lack of pain got my hopes up and I was really to jump back into the challege- but this morning my knee was killing me again. Frustrated! While I have decided to quit (I *@%#ing hate to quit), I promise to be back as soon as my knee heals. Best of luck to you all! I'll check in to see how you guys are doing!!! Proud to be a cold turkey! |

Were they able to work out at all this month? One option is to revise the goal: 30 days - days missed = days of participation Original goal x days of participation / 30 = new goal If they want to completely drop out, it would be better to PM Dee. Hope that helps. |
