Master  7712     Orlando |  Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSEDOriginally posted by jmkizer Just for sh*ts and giggles, I used What’s On Zwift (https://whatsonzwift.com/) to convert a GPX file of me riding the Lake Logan Half course to a Zwift workout file.
Hmm. Since the elevation here looks fairly dramatic, I'll find the Oly bike course (circa 2013). A lot less yellow and green!
ETA color key very cool! I knew I was working hard on that little bike ride! |

Originally posted by Hot Runner Holy sh.... That Soul Cycle figure is more than my bike (which I definitely don't replace every year) plus dumb trainer plus power meter, plus Garmin plus coaching for all three sports! I could even throw in my I-Mac (for YouTube videos) and gym membership and it would still be cheaper. Talk about successful marketing. I guess it's good I actually detest the "social aspect", loud music, and trainers/coaches who yell during workouts. I'm just too dang cheap for any of this discussion. I know I'm not nearly as serious as most of you, so I am a horrible metric. I own bikes. No Smart (or dumb) Trainer. No Subscriptions. No Training Plan. I own a refurbished Garmin 310XT. I understand that I am blessed to live where I live as well. I also understand how much I am saving on stuff. I should probably invest all those savings into another bike! Enjoy the weekend everyone! We'll be out in the great wide open, spending the weekend with friends. Actually, it is supposed to be rainy and grey at times, but I'll do the best with what I got. |

Lots of runs coming up this weekend. Janyne, that conversion to Zwift is so cool! Did it use your own power numbers for that or is it using elevation data? Just curious if everyone doing that race would generate the same profile or whether it depends on how much the racer was pushing at the time. |

I don't know if the conversion tool used power at all. The 2013 file definitely had no power involved. The conversion tool says "using physics" so it must be taking elevation data and rider+bike weight into consideration. Edited by jmkizer 2019-03-15 11:55 AM |

Veteran 2441 Western Australia | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED Originally posted by kbhanson3 Im pretty much up for all of those categories. I don't know that I have much weight to loose but maintaining at my new weight is going to be a new challenge for me. April 1 sounds like a good day to start. Originally posted by jmkizer Selfishly, I'd say some later time. Heading out of town on spring break next week. How about Monday April 1? Originally posted by Hot Runner Flexibility challenge for me? I think I only have 140 degrees to go! \Sounds good, everyone. Let's nail down some categories. Potential categories
Do you want to start next Monday, the 18th, or some later time? |

Member 836 North Augusta, South Carolina | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED I just need to make an announcement that I have taken Simon off the trainer and we are going on a chilly 2+ hour tour tomorrow. It'll be his first time outdoors if I don't count the 10 minute post bike fit ride from December. I don't have enough clothes for 47 degrees. I'm going to freeze. |

Master 8247 Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED Lucky you! I'm thinking Andreas's wheels may never actually touch pavement this year. In theory, I can get onto him on the trainer a week from Monday. Whether I actually can get on (and off) or not remains to be seen...May need to start out on one of the gym stationaries to begin with. Edited by Hot Runner 2019-03-16 7:53 PM |

Veteran 2441 Western Australia | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED Just letting you know that I survived the epic hills in my trail run yesterday. It was extremely tough and there was far more walking than there was running. According to my Garmin there was 995m (3,265') of elevation gain and loss over the 20km. I normally love downhills but yesterday they became more brutal than the uphills. I don't think I will be lining up any time soon to do the 30k event, I'm not sure how E survived.

| Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2019 Edition - Practice Maximum Enthusiasm - CLOSED Thanks for the birthday wishes, all! I was offline Fri, Sat., and Sun because of busy birthday fun so I missed wishing the other racers luck. I hope everyone did great at their events. Stacey - your event looked brutal, that is some SERIOUS elevation change! Nice work getting it done! Laura - I'm way late to your Zealios question and don't have the response you're looking for anyway. I have a team discount with my coaching group so I tried a few items - one being their Betwixt chamois cream. It's pretty good, no complaints, but I think I like Assos better but I can't qualify why. I also have Zealios' after pool shampoo and conditioner but I haven't used them yet because I'm still finishing up other brand bottles that are already started. I did not order any of their sunblock and can't speak to its quality. Janyne - interesting bit about Soul Cycle vs. Peloton, wow!! That's some major bank to do Soul Cycle regularly! Karen - it's good to hear you have a time frame for being able to use your trainer - progress! Keep healing! |
