OMG - I couldn't agree more

Good luck in your Oly.  You will do great and you can make up the miles next week.  If you are going to warm-up for 20-30 minutes you might as well count that as a stage. 

I am doing stage 8 tommorrow a commute to work, and then stage 9 Friday a 60 miler!

Good luck with your race on Sunday. I am racing in an oly too. If it were me, I would count the 20 minutes warmup as part of total time, but not a stage if you do not want to.

I logged stages 7 and 8 today. Planned on getting stage 7 in the books with a 75 minute ride. Bailed at 30 minutes due to early morning tummy issues. Was able to sqeeze in a second ride, netting the total time of the orriginal workout of 75 minutes, thus I got 2 stages and 105 out of the way today!

Thank you guys for helping me stay honest with my workouts. I needed this.

Finally  back to the computer. It looks like everyone has had an amazing week riding! Way to go team!

Stage 5 -30 miles logged. 107 miles to go. I actually rode 40 miles tonight to make up for not completing 10 miles at the race on Sunday.

Got a few more minutes in today.  Make sure you are logging your miles or minutes and stages completed.  I will be gone through Monday.  I may have some limited internet time.  Not sure.

OK LazyM!  They are all yours for the weekend!  Kick some butt team!!!!!

Good luck to everyone racing this weekend!!!

I'll be here physically, but I can't promise I will be mentally I'll be sure our spreadsheet is fully updated for the Week 2 reporting. I can't wait to get back on my bike!

How is everyone feeling about racing this weekend??? Good luck to everyone. 

Good luck on your race this weekend.  You and Owl are my heroes!  I've got a swim, a short run, and a ride scheduled for today. Not sure how long the ride will be until I actually get out there.  Wish me luck! 

I thought they were supposed to be posted, but haven't seen anything. I'd love to know where we stand as well! It seems like we had a very strong Week 1. 

Hi team,

Here is the news, gossip and results from week 1 of the Tour De France bike challenge.

Thanks to everyone for your participation so far

See you for the week 2 results next week

Cat

Great work team! We're over 50% of the way and that's even with a lot of us dealing with taper weeks. I think a couple other teams fancy themselves more attractive than us - I thought we claimed the best looking team?!?! They posted regular shots, ab shots, leg shots, you name it. But they're just showing off and they're quite a few % behind us

Hope everyone has a great Friday. Mandatory rest for me, but I'll get a tiny little warm-up ride in tomorrow before I drop my bike in transition for Sunday. Enjoy! 

Yeah Team! We're doing great!

Stage 6 completed- 40 miles this morning. 67 miles and 3 stages left. I have 60 on the schedule for tomorrow. I'll be out of town and off the bike from 7/23-7/28.

Good luck to everyone this weekend!

Just read Cat's udate!  We are doing AWESOME!!!!!  Go get some more riding in, team!!!   We rock!!!!!

Good luck to everyone racing this weekend!!!!!

owl_girl - 2008-07-19 2:24 AM Yeah. I'm present but absent. I got my husband to bed. He's doing an oly tomorrow. He informed me that he IS going to visit the beer garden after the race and I better be driving! Hee hee! He's gonna tear up the bike course! He's really fast!

There should be a beer garden at every race. Have fun and good luck to your husband! 

Good Luck to everyone that is racing today!

Stage 7 -60 miles had to be delayed until Sunday. Woke up and it was raining this morning. So I switched Sat/Sun workouts and ran intstead. Now of course it has dried up and is sunny!

wow, sounds just like Portland!  Plan something (a bbq), it rains, cancel plans, it dries up and is nice and sunny.

Got in what I think was stage 10 and brings me to needing about 2 hours of riding left  I think. I would know better, but for some reason I am being blocked from the spreedsheet. I added one stage and 1 hour 25 minutes today!! I have an oly race tommorow which should bring me to needing about 1/2 an hour left. If all goes well I will do that on Monday as my "recovery" ride. Some how I have managed to squeeze in extra time on most of my rides and I am well ahead of goal. Now all I have to do is find time to swim

Keep up the good work all, and good luck to all those racing/jockstrapping this weekend.

I'm going to try to update the spreadsheet tomorrow afternoon, but I noticed earlier today that it isn't adding our Week 2 percentages/totals up. If we can't figure it out, we can ask Kat for help!
