    I asked earlier, but my post got buried (I can't find it) ha ha, so I'll ask again :flowerforyou:

    I have a question for you (not sure who -you- is actually) :happy:
    Also was wondering,
    if we divide our biking miles by avg walking speed

    For Example ::
    2 miles @12mph on bike
    would equal
    .33 miles @4mph walked
    Would that be fair?

    Here is a link to a Calculator I use myself::
    https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjWq8Ca1b4hfdDdOcTl5azVVNWxuRVNoNHdKc2FaSGc&hl=en_US&authkey=CP-sk6sF

    The reason I ask my husband and I work out together and he is currently not able to walk w/an injury, but we ride bikes. (avg 10-12mph for 45min - hour)

    Would you guys feel comfortable with bike miles being converted/counted this way?
    I think it's a pretty fair conversion. (not scientific, but definitely not an "advantage")

    I understand TOTAL biked miles not equal (and aka not allowed :wink: ),
    but if they're converted this way, I think it becomes semi-comparable? :blushing:

    But it's completely up to you guys! I will have some *actual* walk/jog miles too, just more time will be spent biking w/hubby till he heals. :embarassed:


    Thank you guys!! :love:

    Hey, I'd love to join if there is still room on a team. Not sure I could do the whole captain role, as this whole thread thing confuses me:)

    I wanted to comment on the biking thing. I think it'd be nice to count those miles, but on a reduced level. I'd always heard 1 mile of running was about 4 miles of biking, so to get the run/walk out of biking you take it by 1/4. Really 1/4 or 1/3 I think it would give us something else in our tool belt for fitness, espcially those who are new(er) and do not want to risk an injury.
