    Looks like plenty of progress against goals for much of the group over the past week!

    With my IM 70.3 this weekend, I've been mostly focusing on intensity instead of distance, and have been sticking with shorter harder rides. That focus alongside new tires/tubes for my tri bike (along with a tuneup) have been keeping my average over 20, with 2 solo interval sessions, and a group ride this morning. Debating if I want to do my Friday team hammerfest as it is a bit close to my race. Still, my tri plan calls for some intervals that day, so I may just join for the first 10 mile section where the paceline usually goes 28-30mph, pull twice, then turn around and go home to ensure I have some gas in the tank for Sunday.

    9/3 - 19 miles
    9/4 - 12 miles
    9/5 - 14 miles
    9/6 - 30 miles (expresso + baseball commute)
    9/7 - 28 miles (errands + baseball commute)
    9/8 - 100 miles (Pittsburgh - Rockwood on GAP trail @ 14mph)
    9/9 - 107 miles (Rockwood-Hancock on GAP/C&O trail @ 15.5mph)
    9/10 - 112 miles (Hancock-DC @ 14.5mph)
    9/14 - 20 miles
    9/15 - 5 miles (train station home)
    9/18 - 19 miles (trainer sufferfest during Sunday night football)
    9/19 - 34 miles (w. intervals - testing new tires)
    9/21 - 33 miles (tri team ride)

    Total: 534 miles
    Goal: 621 miles
    Remaining: 87 miles

    I just started riding in July, so I am fairly new to this, but here is what I did this month:

    9/1-22.01
    9/3-16.83
    9/6-11.61
    9/8-6.70
    9/9-6.30
    9/13-11.20
    9/14-6.50
    9/15-9.25
    9/16-3.68
    9/18-21.32
    9/20-12.41
    9/21-12.29

    Total of 140.1 miles. In the process of doing heart zone interval training so the miles are fairly low right now, but hope to pick that up as training progresses.

    I can join in... I'd like to hit 750km this month; only made 700 for August, but a little cooler weather will hopefully let me enjoy the long rides a little more.

    Up to 546km for the month so far. Lots of life stresses eating into my riding time, so it's going to be a push to hit 750...

    @mullaneywt: Never thought of swapping out the tires! Thanks for your 2c!

    Not sure if I'm going to meet my 250mi goal for this month -- I'm only at 151 as of this morning.

    Sat 24 - 15.46 miles

    MTD 124.03 / 250, YTD 1834.9 / 2500

    Nice ride, though with strong gusty wind and very pleasant 30 minute break in the middle at a bike shop to order a new bike :)
