    I really don't like days off. So, I just keep plugging away when my schedule permits. I lose roughly a pound every 50 miles, as long as I don't blow the diet. So, I'm trying to stay motivated to ride in the wind and the rain this fall.

    Tom

    I am not saying this to stay ahead of you but a day off now and then wont hurt you. In fact it may even be better for you to give your legs and muscles a chance to heal from your riding. I very seldom will ride two days in a row if they are longer rides. Your doing great keep it up.

    I'm not really trying to compete with anyone else; I mope around a lot, and don't feel as good, when I don't ride. Riding helps my overall attitude, and gives me time to think. I was the same way, back when I was a kid.

    Then ride, ride and ride. Kind of like me it makes me feel better.

    Sprint triathlon was awesome. Swim was brutal, run was good, and the bike ride was aweseome. Won't be updating my mileage until next week though...left my log @ home and I'm still at the beach until Sunday. Have a great week!

  • I've had a bit of a cold these last five days, but it has been so beautiful out with warm to hot temperatures and almost zero wind that I have ridden every day. I got the taste of living in a place without a constant 15 to 25 mph west wind and I loved it. As of now I am at 250 miles and will almost certainly make my 350 mile goal.

    Added 10 miles yesterday, and 33 today.

    BryanAir, you are awesome. Riding even while sick. Personally I think that keeping active makes me feel better when I am sick. Maybe it's because I am not thinking about it.

    I see Okie going strong :-)

    @Pam3 - thanks - it's way under what I'd hoped for at the start of the year - but hadn't counted on being snowed in for first month and a half, then crashing and losing maybe 6 weeks of prime riding in the middle of june/july. All things considered, I'm not unhappy with the miles - though I'm still working on revised goal of 2011 miles in 2011! :smile:
