Okay, I finally got some riding time in.  I'm not really in an ideal situation either, but I am still able to make up what I've skipped.  I'll just be darn tired for the rest of the month   Not sure what I was thinking when I said that I would put this much time in.

It's going to be GORGEOUS here this weekend! I have a 30 mile ride scheduled for Saturday to break in my Pretty New Bike (how much more girly could that statement be???!)
I can't wait!!!
Let's keep it up team! We gotta get a move on if we're going to represent our area well! Oh yea - and with the Tourney on this weekend - it should be a good weekend all around!!!
Have a good one!

I will be riding tomorrow, at least 50. No more lame excuses about this stupid cough/virus I have. I'm falling WAY behind because of being sick.

Don't worry, I'll get my miles in! May even do a double long ride weekend instead of doing my long run Sunday.

Rick:

Hmm, feeling a little under par ...  think beer + Cheetos in front of the TV watching basketball is the right prescription for the weekend.

C'mon it's March Madness!  How often does that happen?

Yes, especially now that:

WCC + PAC 10 48.61%
ACC 41.28%
Crazy Canuks 37.48%
SEC 36.36%
Big 10 35.37%
Big East 34.35%
Big 12 32.84%


We're in second place! We can do this! I'll be cranking out some more miles tonight as I set up my position on my TT bike. I don't care about this stupid cough anymore, I need to work out!

Go team go!

Congratulations on your 2nd place status ACC Dominators!  Sorry I had to drop out, but I have my own personal  "health" challenge going on, so my heart and mind just weren't up to any tri challenges right now.  But, I'm glad to see the ACC IS DOMINATING!  Keep up the good work!

We have some people that are close, and others who have some work to go. I don't think we will hit the goal as a team, but everyone keep it up and do your best!

Thanks all!

Hello everyone!

Sorry that I have been MIA this past month.  I came down with the flu the 2nd week of March, which took me 10 days to get over and then I got bronchitis after that.  It has not been a good month for me, and I am just now getting back to training.

Looks like you are all doing well.  Keep up the good work!

Awesome to have you back!! I know I and a few others were starting to get worried that you had something drastic happen as you were not to be "seen" anywhere on the boards.

Take your time and build your strength back up. Ease back into it and you'll come back stronger than before that flu bugs.

Welcome back!

Hey everybody -

I've got 2 hours left to go, and should be able to take care of that without too much problem.

Looks like the women's final four is a true ACC event - Maryland, UNC, and DUKE!! Wish I could say the same for the men's, but not this year...

Finish strong, everyone.

... we have a race to the finish - both in terms of which team can win and which team can lose.

Remember, the stakes are that the winning team gets to choose the avatar + signature line of the losing team.

WCC + PAC 10 92.84%
Big 10 86.40
SEC/Hawaii 83.82
Crazy Canucks 83.52
Big East 77.20
ACC 73.43
Big 12 71.68


Okay, we are dropped down in the ranks folks! If we come in last then we get stuck with what whoever comes in first chooses as an avatar. I don't know about you, but I like the one I have!

I'll be finished 100% after tonight's ride, come on team!!

(I'm also going to confer with huengsolo as to the status of our downed teammate who is finally back in action - she was out for almost three weeks with different flu bugs and was unable to work out).

Rick:

The Rules the Team Captains agreed to at the beginning of the month stated that is someone is injured (illness is the same as injury insomuch as you are physically incapable of cycling), then the goal can be changed to reflect their situation.

In this case a quick check of  Allyson's (Albearangel) logs she was clearly out of commission ... solid history of working out and then *boom" nothing, so her goal ought to be changed to reflect the three weeks she was out of commission.

As such, 21 divided into 31 = 68% therefore I suppose a fair revised goal would be 52 miles (from 160 miles)?

The whole purpose of the challenge is to motivate people to reach a new level of commitment ... and when sick, it is not a matter of being unmotivated when it comes to completing your scheduled work outs.

Thoughts?

That sounds reasonable. We'll have to see what she says she would like to do as I would like to leave it her court as much as possible.

Oh, and with tonight's rather sweaty and fast 25 ........ I'M AT MY GOAL! WOOHOO!!
