April Challenge! (Page 4)

trying to get my riding up, and lacking a running plan this month so the running is suffering - that segment could be interesting towards the end of the month.

gotta say I am digging the sig line peto..... 

That is a bummer.  So sorry!  Did something happen in the race to cause the coughing?  You'll get 'em next time.

Ah-nuld says "DO IT!!  DO IT NOW!!!"

No matter what happened, you stuck with it and finished it!

My first race ever was a HIM, in a foriegn country. Was also my first ever "real" open water swim except for playing in the lake with kids. First time ever with a wetsuit, you know, all the stuff folks not to do...........I did..........and finished it!

Yikes!  From  Overachiever to Taser Target in one week.  Crud...

w00t!   Good thing I updated the spreadsheet yesterday.  :-)

Just don't look too closely at the individual goals -- I've had to swap out a bunch of bikes for runs -- hard to bike in this lovely April weather:

Darn weight loss goal, dragging me down.  Nothing to do with the run being behind also 

Damn, guess I can do math!!!

I think we should have a group vote for the over achievers to increase their numbers!!!

I updated my sheet. I'm better than 12.6. lol. 

I Second !!!

That picture and temp looked like my run on Tuesday

I"m happy dancing with Brenda.  No, I'm not an accountant and have not just finished taxes.  I just like to dance and I'm rejoicing for Brenda.  Was at son's baseball game today and started to get up and dance - 1) because I wanted to and 2) embarass the crap out of son. 

Sorry everyone else is having the lousy weather.  It's in the 80s in North Florida and we all lathered up on the sunscreen just to watch the game.

I took off next week since the kids will be off Thurs and Fri - so I could do some stuff around the house as well as get some good running and riding in.  This is the forecast

• TonightA chance of rain showers before midnight, then scattered rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 34. West wind around 11 mph becoming north in the evening. Winds could gust as high as 16 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
• SundayA 20 percent chance of snow showers before 10am. Partly sunny, with a high near 53. Breezy, with a west northwest wind 7 to 12 mph increasing to 17 to 22 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 31 mph.
• Sunday NightA slight chance of rain showers before midnight, then a chance of rain and snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 27. West northwest wind 6 to 11 mph becoming light and variable. Winds could gust as high as 16 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no snow accumulation expected.

 I was expecting sunny and 60-70's.  I may just have to go to work instead and do it later.

Made it back from my trip and am almost caught up. I'm at 47% after the 15 miles I put in today. I hope to be over 50% tomorrow which us just about right...

That weather picture is good and bad. I would love to have at least one day where it was like that. I live in Atlanta and we barely got below 32° this year. I don't think we have even had flurries in about 2 or 3 years now. Of course after about 2 days of that kind of Canada weather we would all be out of our minds.

Glad to be back amongst the cool folks involved in this challenge.
