Geez.... maybe I should join in... Not sure HOW much I will get out, BUT I did do 20 miles yesterday running in the cold, and a few snow showers along the way.

It snowed in Baton Rouge - of course join in and have fun - we all know Lenny is going to win this year - we are just competing for 2nd place

So if Lenny's gonna win why are you the one with the 1000 point lead?

I have never prayed so hard for someone to have warm sunny weather as hard as I am praying for you right now. At the same time later today I will be in my yard doing a traditional Northern Michigan Snow Dance complete with the charring of burgers on the grill while wearing a Hawaiian shirt and shorts.Bring it on Mother Nature, I dare you!!!

It is awfully early in the challenge to look at leads - I am heading to AZ for 1 week right after Thanksgiving and probably won't score any points there unless the Grand Canyon is cold.  I will score some more this week with my commute but if Darren and Lenny get cold stuff with the running they do and the climate they (and you) live in makes it hard for me unless it is downright cold this winter.  Plus if I don't get into TransIowa my riding will drop off substantially

I think Bill wants everyone to forget about him while he builds up points on his bike.

Ok I have a stupid question, did my bike ride this afternoon and the temp was great 68 degrees, but there was wind of 15mph gusting to 20 . . . do I get points, or does it have to be cold?  Laughing  If I get to count wind, I may be able to rack up some points!

Sorry math is always temp factor*time then go from there.I have a friend in Abq and he says am temps are 20s

 

Dang, guess i will have to start doing rides and runs in the morning, although Alb is quite a bit colder than Tuc, (it was 35 when I got out of bed at 5am this morning)!  Thanks for the clarification!

Well, I'm still sitting at zero. We're at 50s during the day. The overnight lows are dipping into the 20s, but I'm not up early enough to run in it. Maybe December will look better for me.

Some of you are amazing! Your dedication to training outside, even with the cold wintery weather you are having, is inspirational.

It is a 2011 Santa Cruz chamelean. They were blowing them out for 1000 bucks. Has an air shock but some good components. Kinda got me in a week moment after a week of long drives.

An ok deal, free service which is good because I think it will take a beating. The only part that sucks is it is a 26er, or maybe that doesn't suck, I don't kbow. Been about 10 years since I have been on a mountain bike.

Dint worry too much, I figure only one or two idea to work a week as I figure it will taking me a bit longer. Just got to get some gloves and I will be good.

No minimum - you get more points the longer you are out there!



every minute counts. Especially when it is 20 below.
