700 Mile club or Ultimate 822.7 Mile club 2007 (Page 3)

I'm done with the swim and it looks like I will reach my goals after all; I am determined to maintain consistency with my training over the next 8 days. I might do an easy 6km spin later tonight just to bring myself to the 200 Mi mark on the bike.

How is everyone coming on their plan? 

swim for me is not going to happen.  Just need to re-establish a good habit/schedule

bike - I could do it but not sure I want to stretch/push that much - maybe

Run - Yes, but will fall short of my personal goal for the month.

April seems to be like that, but it will be a springboard into May.

 Let's jump into a great season everyone.

Ok here is the update. FYI - I only updated those with 50% or more of their goal as it takes quite of time going through the entire list. For those that are close to reach their goal and join the club, keep on pushing, we only have 5 more days to complete the challenge! For those who won’t make it, I hope you were able to push yourselves more than usual and get some benefits in your training. For those of you who had to juggle with life/health issues I hope things are well and you can get back on track soon!

Hopefully I should make it......only time will tell. I had a few bad weather days but not like the rest of you, so I know that sucks!! If you guys do next month, good luck but I cannot be apart of it. I have to really focus on some key workouts next month!!

Work blew-up this past week. I count on getting at least some decent sleep on my 24 hour shifts, but it didn't happen that way. So I'm going to come up short.

But it will still be my highest volume for the bike and run in a single month. Ever. So I guess that's good.

I'm going to come up a little short myself.

Was supposed to do a 55-mile ride Sunday, but spent the weekend (Wednesday-Sunday actually) volunteering for my rotary Club's fundraiser at a local festival. Worked there Saturday night until 11 after getting up at 4 am for that morning's triathlon. Had to be back at festival for 11 am Sunday, just couldn't do it all, and will come up that much short, at nearly 650 miles for the month. More to blame are the bad weather days we had earlier this month, as in previous year's I usually have the 700 wrapped up prior to festival weekend.

Good news is we raised nearly $8,000 on the portion of the fundraiser that I managed.

I'm done.

It's been quite a challenge considering the crappy, unstable shift work schedule and lack of quality daytime sleep I have to contend with. What I have acquired through this one though is better time management skills.

Many thanks for this challenge Jorge!
