Went for a run this afternoon.  3.6 miles in some CRAZY wind (20mph or so they say on the news).  I also made some Rosemary Focaccia bread.  Just pulled it out of the oven and can't wait to try it.  So easy and looks great.

rnihill - 2009-12-02 1:01 PM I think it's going to be good that I often don't get to train until night... I get to see how motivated you all are throughout the day. I'm going to HAVE to get on the trainer tonight no matter what! Go VIXENS!!


NOW THAT'S THE SPIRIT.

Yum, rosemary focaccia...  I baked an artisan boule last night...  I love my bread in 5 min bread book...  Have a batch of peasant bread resting in the fridge, will probably bake a loaf tomorrow... 

In the past month, I have made challah, baguettes, ciabatta, pumpernickel, rye, honey oatmeal, granola bread, and a pumpernickel/rye braid... 

Hmmm -  I wonder why I am gaining weight....

tinalouise -  But I am excited about getting started again-- I'm starting off a bit slower-- just focusing on the bike and nutrition (thus the weightloss goal)-- plus I live in Wisconsin and the thought of running in 25 degree weather just doesn't appeal to me quite yet... As far as a name goes, I'm up to whatever... Good luck everyone!

Hi Tina - I am in your neck of the woods in Fitchburg - I know what you mean about getting outside to run BRRRRR!

I swam this morning and ran a short 3.1 miles.  Recovering from an injury, so that's good for me!  I still need to get those goals posted.  Ugghh!  Sorry team.  I'm on it!

Hey - thanks!  I am not so sure about this bike thing.  It's on an exercise bike at the Y - has aero bars.  There is little to no resistance in it - I am hoping the mileage is right.  I just pump like hell and go.  I could never do the same time/distance on my mtn bike.  Not even if it was all downhill.

I have to stay on top of this - I don't want to be the slacker only doing 93% of his/her goal.

I have to amend my signature at some point since I was on a losing team in November.

Is it a spin class style bike or an exercise machine type bike?  I haven't ever seen a bike with no way to increase resistance unless it is broken...  Find out the brand name or ask someone at the Y for assistance - unless you are just working on increasing cadence

cool that the bike has actual aerobars!  i dont go anywheres near the stationary bikes at our Y....totally suckish.  too upright, and theres no way to adjust that.  BAH!

and i improvise aero bars on our spin bikes, even still, they provide an UBER good workout.

im w ANDY maybe you can ask someone there if theres a way to increase your resistance. 

low cadence, high resistance.  low resistance, high cadence.  either way, you'll get a good workout!  they both have their benefits.

HAPPY CYCLING!

Hi everyone!  I am new to your team.  Last month was my first time on a challenge team.  Sorry to say that I did not hit my goal.  However that is NOT going to happen this time...I hate being a loser!    My goal is to bike and run.  I got my first trainer session session done tonight...I hate that thing!

BTW-I am a jr. high teacher, wife, and mother of two (14 & 12).  I completed my first two sprint tris this year and looking forward to the new season.
