job well done!!! now did you have fun?

I hope you meant keep chugging on the miles and not the beer! I memorialized my tri/bar stop with a photo in my blog. It's good to be a regular, the people are much more forgiving. I stopped in yesterday after an OWS still wet and looking like something that washed up on the beach! Only I drank just water then. With all the training these days, I feel like I live in tri gear!

I'll be testing out that fermented beverages theory after my oly next Sunday

Ha Ha Ha!  That's so true regarding being a regular at a local bar.  We runners always go into the bar looking pretty nasty.  They have a mug club.  All of us have our own mugs.  (Mine is "Hooter" btw.  Yes, it refers to owls!)  I havn't been in there for awhile.  I wonder if they miss me?

Lets keep going guys, i'm gonna try to nab a stage tomorrow if i can get my swim done before 2pm and its nice outside... probably a slow 35 miler.. if i do end up going. ( in retrospect i wish i had set less goals b/c i have to average 32.5 miles every ride and am too lazy to bag big ones (maybe a big one wednesday))

Just to keep you happy/smiling see below:

I just entered my week one results.  There is a chance I get out and ride tonight but it's unlikely.  I'm at 36%.  I have a light training plan this week since I am supposed to taper for Sunday's race but I'll get out there and grab some T.I.T.S!

Great job everyone.  There is no doubt we get over 100%!

Week 1 is in for me. I'm at 50.50% of goal. This week will be light since I'm somewhat tapering, so maybe two easy rides plus my race distance. I'll kick it back into high gear during week 3 and intend to meet my goal 100%, even if it means I have to ride every day!

With what is entered so far, we are looking really strong! 

x2 (except for that excellent 50.50% part)

Since the last picture I posted of my bike was not a good one, I took a good picture this morning of team tripreacher.

That's the cleanest garage I've ever seen!!!!  You are a sick man!!!!

We are doing a great job as a team!!!!  Let's keep up the great work!!!  Thanks for updating the spreadsheet!

I plan on getting another ride and Spin class done this evening so my numbers are not yet final for the first week.

I have keep the home of my babies clean!  I love my garage!!!!!  Stage 6 down!

It is a Suzuki Boulavard M-50. 

Hey everyone. I did Stage 6 today, but it was only 15 miles since I'm tapering (Tapering = Misery). Does anyone know if we can do more stages than originally committed to reach mileage or minutes? For example, if I have to do 12 stages to hit 300 miles, will that still count as 100% even though I only committed to 10?

I'm worried that this taper week (I have another dinky ride coming up, plus my race) is going to make it hard for me to hit 300 with just 10 stages. But don't worry, if I have to ride 40 or 50 in NYC I will, it will just be the most boring ride of my life! 

No worries about doing more stages than you anticipated.

I would be terrified to do a ride in NYC!!!!!  I ride on the freeway around here but the shoulder is pretty big in most places!  I'd be freaking out in a big city!

I finally have a shot of me on the bike, from my first tri a few weeks ago. My husband didn't turn out to be a reliable race photographer so I had to wait for the official photos. I look so serious. I think I was still amazed I survived the swim!
