Expert 1207  Liberty Lake, WA | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Crummy weather running is great. This picture is from my daughters race last Saturday. 32 degrees and freezing rain. There were a lot of people from SoCal and Texas that were looking a little blue. At least they plowed the snow off of the course.

Master 3019 West Jordan, UT | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Little crummy run for me today. Temp was just ouside the range at 39, but I had 8mph winds and light precip, so 36 mins x (1 wind +1 precip) = 72 points I normally get some decent points for my long saturday rides, but that got canned last week. I will make a concerted effort at suckage this week.

Elite 2673 Muskego, WI | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) I will make a concerted effort at suckage this week. THAT's the attitude we're looking for!!!! It was exeptionally foggy this morning and I could have possibly skewed in some wet points this morning, but I elected not to. To be brutally honest, the air was as wet as it could possibly be WITHOUT actual raindrops hitting the ground. oh well... |

molto veloce mama 9311 | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) lots going on today, so even though the weather should be in the 40s today, i ran first thing this morning so that it was done. cold, but barely any wind, so it didn't feel so bad. lots of patches of ice that were a bit slippery, mostly a problem on climbs when i really need traction to be able to push the stroller up the hill. anyway... 61 mins x 1 (29 degrees) = 61 |

One more mph and it would have almost doubled my points for the day. Oh well to that too.

Extreme Veteran 412 Fort Worth | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Ran a marathon on Sunday with 15mph winds. 3hrs 33 min = 213 * 2 (for winds) = 426 points. Today's run was only 10 mph winds 41 * 1 = 41 (I'm glad you don't take off points for warm weather as it was 70F here). |

Expert 1207 Liberty Lake, WA | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Dang warm weather, I'm still looking at a zero for the week. 40+ and raining, almost all of our snow is gone. It might get into points weather by the weekend. Fingers are crossed. |

Regular 82 Cleveland, OH | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) I had a nice crummy workout today for the first time in a while because of this freakish warmth. 50 x (2 (16mph winds) + 3 (heavy rain)) = 250 Making it all worse... It was 44 degrees, real feel 41, and I was doing a fairly fast and tough workout on the track so I wore short sleeves figuring I'd get hot. Didn't realize it was going to rain though, which dropped the temp quite a bit. I had that beautiful numb arm and hand condition by the time I was done. I at least foiled part of the weather's nasty plan by wearing tights, thus plastering my pants to my legs before the rain even began  Oh and just to rub it in, it hasn't really rained much the rest of today, only while I was out there (seriously - it started 3 mins into my workout and ended while I was on the last lap). I'd take zero degrees with snow over cold rain any day! Crossing my fingers for less rain tomorrow. |

Extreme Veteran 412 Fort Worth | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Hey do we get points for running in hot weather (okay - almost hot)? 78F here today. If not for the Texas Hills (a.k.a. wind) there would be no points. 81 minutes with 17mph winds = 81*2 = 162points. |

Master 1732 Delafield, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) Boy this nice weather really sucks. All I got for this week is from today's run : 43:30min x 2 (15mph wind) (no temp points 39 degrees) = 87. Here's hoping for a cold front! |

| Alaska | Subject: RE: Crummy Weather Challenge Week 5 (Dec 10-17) This week was a better week. Bruises are fading and not hurting so I was able to get out there for some real points. Yesterday started warming up and it is snowing good today. Here are my points for week 5.
Hope everyone gets out there and has a crummy weather week! Edited by AKtri 2006-12-18 11:38 AM |
