Double Your Mileage Challenge (Page 3)

Yeah, that would probably be a good idea.  I "faked" it for a oly, but it was only a 1000m pool swim.  don't think I could get away with that for  HIM

Nice job on doubling up the run and breaking 7k -

I'm still thinking about putting in the effort to get to 2k on the bike (I know, I only have 68 miles to go, but I have just been running and doing the trainer. ) but I have doubled my first 6 months.  On the run, I doubled up early in Nov but with the 5x5 challenge, I am getting in some good miles.  Might be close to 100 this month.  I think I only have 4 or 5 100 mile months in my life.

CeiliDH- You can do it, you can get your bike in

PinkSocks - come on, you are in FL, it should be easier to ride (especially to  spin your legs out after those long runs)  Have a great Ultra btw - you should be in taper soon right??

Great job on the possibility of 100+ month.  Yea, that 5x5 challenge (plus the November Turkey one) is keeping me focused.  Now as far as me jumping on the bike after a long run - shoot, you heard me dogcussing last week after my long.  The only thing I want after a hard long run is a glass (or bottle) of wine and a hot shower.  But yes, I've got my last really, really long this weekend and then I'm in taper.  WooHoo!

But I definitely say to finish up those 68 miles on the bike.  I'm still upset by missing my running goals for 2010 and 2011 by just a few miles.  You'll regret it if you don't go for it.

November is wrapping up - how is everyone doing?  I met this goal and have exceeded 2011 bike miles.  Something I didn't think was possible at the 1st of August - 2011's run miles are within striking distance.

Bill and Scott, you are both going great!!!!!  Keep up the good work!

Hmm, a week of so ago, I really was gettiing cocky and was confident I would make my goals.  Some injury has slowed me down but I'm crossing my fingers I'll get it.

914.1 Run Miles (Goal 1000)

224.64 Bike Miles (Goal 300)

Amazing year Bill.  Can't imagine 7k on the bike

Pam get your self well (and ride your bike  

You can do it!!!  

On the other side of the equation, when your foot is healthy you could probably knock out the 24 run miles in one session and I would take 4 - 6 

What he said... on all accounts!

You guys made me laugh!!!!  You just happen to meet me during the ultra training and that gave you the wrong idea.  I'm so NOT a stud and 24 miles will take me 4-6 (or 8) sessions.

Yay, Robin on getting your run goal!!!!!!

WooHoo, I made my running goal of 1000 miles!!!!  So 497.5 Jan to Jun and now just over that Jul to Dec.  I'm a happy camper.

Now to get the rest of my bike miles.....

SWEET - CONGRATS!!!!!  I may try for that next year.  

I smashed running, no where near on swimming and only so-so on the bike. I am going to do way better in 2013. Hope it is the best year for all of you!
