Hi team!

Looks like I need to change my avatar....  Edited to say:  done!

I've only got 1 stage (out of 12) done thus far but I'm planning on 2 more stages tomorrow and Thursday, so fear not!  I'll get it done.

hey teamies. added another 6.03 miles commute today and an even longer one tomorrow - sweet

have blagels, chicago, nats, maverick and runnergirl as not updated yet. do you want me to do it for you from your blogs or are you cool to add miles/minutes/kilometres yourselves? just let me know ok?

btw how cool we had our first tour thor victory two days ago

sound no worries. looks liek my commute tomorrow will be about 16-17 miles in total i.e. about 10 miles more than usual - sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet  

Sapph, I just updated my numbers as well. 

Yes, Thor kicks a$$ and I hope he will kick some more in tomorrow's stage!

We all hate hills.  You only get better with training.  They still suck, but just less.  Actually, I love passing people with $5K bikes decked out in the best of everything.  Ok so, I'm a child.  :-)

Just remember you're getting stronger with every hill.  We're all behind you! GO GO GO!
 

I got my third stage in today.  It was tough.  It was 107 today and I swam in the morning.  I normally do a outdoor spin class (we all bring trainers and bike together at a local sports store---Sports Basement).  It was just way too hot and they canceled the class. 

So, I biked on my trainer for a fricken hour in my basement..... 

You've all been working hard. Why not take the day off and have a delicious burrito?

Hi team!

Well, as promised, stage 2 done today.  27.62 miles with wind and hills.  I believe it's my second-longest ride ever (no laughing!  up til now I've only ever done sprint tris and where we lived in PA was NOT conducive to riding - now in CO I think I'll be getting lots of good long rides in).  Anyhow...I may have to up my time goal as I've already got about 1/3 of it done.  Stay tuned on that.  Also, I can update the spreadsheet myself - I've just forgotten up til now!

congrats to all. did 16.6 miles today and LOVED it

btw artemis - no need for burrito as we haven't got any chipotle!  

Stage 4 done although I fell short 14 km of the distance I was supposed to ride.  It was 36 km of pure joy hell.  It was freakin' windy and one the better roads I had planned to ride on was closed for bridge repairs.  That alone threw a major wrench in my plans.  The other thing is that I rode the roadie and it didn't feel good at all; I think I would have done a lot better on the tri bike.

Oh well, I'll console myself with a burrito... with cheese!

It looks like we're all on our way to a great first week!  I've got my bike on the back of my car, and as long as work isn't too dreadful today I should get stage 3 in this afternoon.  Have a great day everyone!

 I live in Lafayette, CA--which is east of San Francisco.
