Elite  3460     Slackerville, USA |  Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge ThreadGot in an 11 mile run. Last five miles was running into the wind. I was running late so I called my wife to come pick me up so we could make our appointment. |

Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Here's one for you. We have the ladies by about 50 posts, but the ladies have us by almost 800 on views. I guess everyone is checkin' out the ladies (thread). Have a good rest of the weekend and I'll check back on Monday. |

Master 1887 Brentwood, CA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Ouch! We had a cold front come in across the coast. The water temp in the ocean dropped 2 degrees in 2 days. Water was 52 degrees! The first 100 yards were a little painful on the ole face. Now the wind is blowing, so my bike ride this morning should be equally painful! Spreadsheet updated. |

I just didn't want to go out in that soaking rain. Of course, it quit raining when I got off the trainer. |

Thankfully it hasn't rained since Friday night. Still pretty chilly though. Except for the wind it was perfect running weather yesterday. This is not typical weather for May. |

Master 1887 Brentwood, CA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Man, you guys are lucky. I got my butt kicked on the bike today. We probably have 15 MPH winds this morning coming off the Bay. So be it! It's better than having rain  |

I was looking at the spreadsheet this morning and you have some serious numbers there. Good work buddy! If this is me - thanks - if not Great job Bill - LOL Tim - seriously consider Lake Placid and let me know. When I get back in July all my training is going to be dirt and AZT-300 or Tour Divide Race training! Would love to do an X-Terra! Yeah YOU! I'm checking airfare prices and looking into shipping containers for my bike. I thinking about investing in a hard shell box that will fit both my TT bike and MTB. If the dates work out next year, I might try to do the XTERRA American Tour. |

| Master 1887 Brentwood, CA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Bill that weekend is open, its just going to come down to price. My wife and I have never been to NY, so it could be a nice little weekend get away for us. I could race and then do the tourist thing with the wife. All would be happy! I'm having trouble finding deals on flights though. |

| Expert 1246 West Grove, PA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Good morning team, Rough morning today... stayed up late to watch the finale of Lost (love that show!). Then had trouble falling asleep. It's amazing how, as we get older, one night's lack of sleep really kicks your butt. I got a 1 hour trainer ride followed by a 1/2 hour treadmill run yesterday... followed by an hour nap. Hopefully I can get to bed early tonight so I can knock out my long run tomorrow morning. Lunchtime swim on the docket for today. I have my first race of the season on Saturday... A sprint in Sea Isle, NJ... can't wait! |

| Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Hey Tim. I think that cold front you were talking about hit us this morning. Got up early to go for a swim and it was chilly and raining. Not bad. I can handle that. I walk outside after and its snowing! Are you kidding? Snow in May! And its not like it the beginning of May, its the last week of May and its SNOWING! Yes I do like running in snow but not in May. Who ever stole the warm weather please send it back. Oh and I also found a puddle of water on the floor in my bedroom when I got back home to change for work. My roof is leaking. Is it Monday or something? |

Haven't watched Lost much lately but had it on my list to watch yesterday since we used to be BIG fans and had to see how it ended. Laid down for a nap and slept through it. Guess we'll have to watch it online later this week. |

| Master 1641 Seattle, California | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Haven't checked in for a while but not to worry I have been running . Sitting at 140 km of 170 km (~86%). Getting in 30 km this week will be a piece of cake and I will more then likely finish off the month somewhere around 185 km. Which will make this month my biggest running month ever by far. Also I haven't run further then 13.5k this month in a single run. I've turned the frequency up to 5 - 6 runs a week and my body feels great. I'm faster and stronger then I have ever been. |

| Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Did my 40k TT race yesterday. Official results are not available yet, so I'll post a short RR once it's out. I did make my goal time. I came in around 1:10...and my goal was 1:12. I actually should have crushed that goal, but it was super windy and raining during the race. Steady 20-25 winds, gusting to 30+. |

| Elite 3460 Slackerville, USA | Subject: RE: Men's May Challenge Thread Was planning on getting in a run during lunch but had to go to the post office to overnight something instead. Maybe a late night run after my meeting. |
