Hi. I'm going to try to participate in these posts. I am primarily a mountain biker. I got into racing last year. I've signed myself up for a really hard race this coming Memorial Day and need to lose weight, build endurance AND improve my technical skills before then. Oh, and did I mention it's winter in Colorado? Yeah, should be interesting. I don't really have a monthly mileage goal, as road/trainer miles are much easier to get than trail.0

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.
