    March: 409.33 km (254.34 miles) = 21 hours 55 min
    April: 384.15 km (238.7 miles) = 20 hours 35 min
    May: 259.06 km (160.9 miles) + 45 min cycling inside
    June: 493.53 km (306.6 miles) = 25 hours 31 min + 215 minutes (3 hours 35 min) cycling inside
    July: 130 km in 405 min + 280 min cycling inside
    Aug: 129.25 km in 474 min + 225 min cycling inside
    Sep: 224.8 km in 697 min + 35 min cycling inside
    Oct: 324.12 km in 1027 min
    Nov: 544.11 km in 1726 min + 45 min cycling inside


    Goal ... more than November. :grin:

    Dec 3 - 27.28 km (85 min) cycling
    Totals:
    Dec Cycling Outside: 27.28 km (85 min)
    Dec Cycling Inside: 0 min

    Dec 5 - 27.3 km (85 min) cycling

    Dec 6 - 75 min cycling on my indoor trainer

    Totals:
    Dec Cycling Outside: 54.58 km (170 min)
    Dec Cycling Inside: 75 min

    Last weekend was not our usual weekend full of exercise ... my husband and I organised a hilly, long distance cycling event ... mainly him, but I helped with some of the paperwork, sorting out what food needed to be at which rest stops, shopping for things like 80 bananas, five 15-litre jugs of water, more real Coke than I've had in my house in years, etc. etc..

    The event was on Sunday, and my part was to hold down the fort at the finish line. So there I sat for 6 or 7 hours with a massive tray of Subway cookies (and other food) beside me.

    Before I had to be at my post, I was able to get in 75 minutes on my trainer, and while there, I managed to walk a total of 3.8 km. My husband was there with me for the first little while and again at the end, so I took a few brisk walks + a whole lot of pacing!

    We can breathe a sigh of relief that the event went well, and everyone was in good spirits when they crossed the finish line after 4,460 metres of climbing over the 210 km route. :)


    Dec 9 - 16.5 km (52 min) cycling

    Windy, windy day on the 9th (yesterday). That ride was a fight ... I don't have the upper body strength to hang on when 70 km/h gusts take out my front wheel. We were planning to ride further, but decided to call it a day at that point instead.


    Totals:

    Dec Cycling Outside: 71.08 km (222 min)
    Dec Cycling Inside: 75 min


    Dec Walking: 40.9 km (480 min)
    Dec Stairs: 240 flights (178 min)
    Dec Time Total: 955 min = 15 hours 55 min
    Dec Distance Total: 111.98 km = 69.6 miles

    I was reviewing my November rides, and I found three that I had not logged from Map My Ride into my tracking spreadsheet, so my mileage went up by almost 73 miles.

    I am in a triathlon club and since it is cold in Michigan right now we ride on our indoor trainers 3 times a week. I average about 70 - 75 miles a week. I use Zwift to track my miles. So my goal for December is 250. I have missed a couple sessions so this will still be a challenge for me to reach. I am currently at 75 miles.

    12/1 - 25.3 1:07.35 Elev. 899
    12/8 - 25.8 1:08.48 Elev. 906
    12/10 - 25.6 1:10.30 Elev. 1650

    Goal: 250
    Current: 76.7
    Remaining: 173
