I'm in...albeit a bit late but I think I can still it my number.

For January - June I rode a total of 685.83 miles. So, I'll need to add in another 686.83 in the second half for a total of 1372.66! I rode 276.9 in July so I've only got 1095.76 left. Yahoo!

Sure everyone can join....more the merrier!I hope to blow my goal away too..but more you have ridden harder it is to get more mileage in.My legs are more fatigued from IMLP than I expected so this month I haven't been riding as much as I had hoped. Recovery is most important but I'll get there.

I hope it is not too late to join in on this, I was out of town and slacking on my forum reading. I did 823.44 miles on the bike Jan to end of June so I am up for at least 1650 miles for the year. What I really want to do, however is to do twice as many miles July 1 to Dec 31 as I did in Jan to June for a total of 2471.32. This is my first year of tri training so my endurance is going up from where I started way back in Jan.

How is the right foot doing? Is that the reason for not riding or has real life crept up? What did you do to your foot anyway, it doesn't sound pleasant?


ps. Also happy to see someone post on this thread, I was thinking the world had swallowed up all of my fellow challengeees.

Woot someone posted on this thread. Grats on meeting your goal. I am still shooting for 2500 miles my first full year of tri training. I am closing in on 1900 atm. I have doubled my miles 823, 1650 from Jan-June and July to now, but I am shooting to actually double double for 2471+ 8). Enjoy the well earned time off. Anyone else out there riding bikes?

I am on vacation so this month will be a running month, plan on a biking  the next couple months to try and meet my goal. It will be hard to double it but I know I will do more than I did the first 6.

Well, I met the challenge :-)  Although, it isn't really right because I did a lot of trainer rides in the beginning of the year and didn't log miles- just time.  I'm a baby in the cold. I'm hoping to still get outside during this winter, though.

I can handle being cold while outside. That's not a big problem; however, it's extremely hard for me to warm up after the ride even after a shower and something hot to drink.  I'll have to figure something out :-)

Try a hot bath. That'll raise your core temperature much faster than a shower. It's easier to have a hot drink during a bath, too.

Great job for those of you who have already made it.

I'm just over 4K and won't make it this yea as I don't think I can get in 1500 miles in by end of the year.  After IM I didn't really recover well and now am taking 2-3 weeks off of riding. Recharging and recovery needs to come first.

Keep riding everyone!

Go Kathy grats on your IM I read your report... ouch that much rain....I would have been hypothermia city. It turns out your my total doubled double goal is er um half your goal so Rock on, 4k miles on the bike for you is awsome even if you are still recovering (health > goals). Hopefuly next year I can continue to up the distance.

I still don't feel compfortable biking below 40 F. (always a windchill of 5-15 around here to drop the actual temp. I worry about icy patches in the shade. I may need to find some decent gortex for biking and running, my current gear is minimal for sub 40F. Oh well have way too much work to crank out today (closing in on 2100 miles biked for the year (tonight)).

I should easily make it. Need to go back and do the math on what exactly I did the first half.
