    When I was a kid, I had a tough time with truth telling. Then, one day, I realized that lying did not a) make me feel good; or b) accomplish my goals very well, and if it did, I still felt like crap about it. So, I then turned into a neurotic truth teller. o:)

    And so, it is confession time.

    I learned last Friday that I have been misleading you all for a year. The bikes at our gym have a computer readout that says "trip." I always believed that this meant "miles travelled." On Friday, one of the guys in my class informed me that this was not, in fact, the case. Rather 1 = 200 revolutions, rather than 1 = 1 mile.

    So... my mileage world has come crashing down, and I realize I actually have no idea what my real mileage is.

    I know I could have just kept quiet and gotten away with it, and no one probably cares all that much - but my neurotic truth-telling self wouldn't let me do that.

    Since it is still a good basis for comparison, I've decided that I'm going to continue to track those trip miles as real miles, even though I know it's not true. But, I figure, as long as you all know that it's a bit disingenuous, I'll feel OK about doing it. (and who knows, maybe it's sort of, kind of accurate... I have no idea).

    So, with that out of the way... I rode 17.9 "miles" today. "M"TD - 53.5

    @hkristine1: God bless your honesty. I remember trying to figure out how many miles I worked out on my elliptical. I had to measure the distance of my stride and divide it into how many revolutions I did after I measured the revolution and when I was done I was so disappointed that I really did not get anywhere for all the sweat and long time I spent on it. So now I am selling it because I feel like I am not getting a workout. So to make you not feel so bad, I thought I would share this little lie with you and hopefully you will get a laugh.

    @Ceci_O_K - fantastic pace! I am so excited for your half.
    @taxmom9093‌ - sorry to hear about your dad. Well wishes coming your way. Tough to be juggling so much during your busy season.
    @hkristine1 - compulsive honesty LOL. How refreshing. We're all happy with your "miles."

    As for me, I had a lovely 5 mile easy run today. This is a recovery week under my training plan and I'm looking forward to it.

    =============================
    SPREADSHEET UPDATED TO HERE

    See (but not edit) the
    spreadsheet here:

    =============================


    @HOLLI - I still think that's really, really* close to actual miles....I'm sure when they built that bike, that was their goal was to make the trip count equal a mile too. And based on how far I travel in a spin class and knowing* you can kick my butt, I'm positive you are right on target! :smiley: And you totally don't need to put your miles in quotes. They're no different than the miles any other non-treadmill machine (be it an elliptical, stationary bike, rowing machine, etc) might report. They're "equivalent" miles based on watts or METs (Metabolic Equivalent of Task).

    @CLEPANT - Love your pic too! :smile:

    @COMMIT1440 - Nope, never too late! Welcome back again and I've gotcha added! :drinker:
