    @martinez0701 Welcome to the challenge! Good start so far. :)

    Just one ride today (have a run coming up that promises to be brutal, and tomorrow's run isn't going to be something to sneeze at either). Tour de Zwift is going on, so I did the long route. Lots of climbing around jolly old virtual London.


    Ride 1 - 26.01 miles

    Only one ride today because today also featured a workout run which was absolutely brutal and made me question all of my life choices.

    But the ride was great! :lol:

    Just popping into say hello…I’m supposed to cross train today so hopefully I’ll get a ride in this evening.

    My marathon is Sunday. I’m nervous and excited. Hoping to PR and really hoping to qualify for Boston- although everything will have to go perfectly for that to happen.

    @wendsg sounds like you are getting a lot of swim and bike in too. Remind me- have you picked your triathlon yet? You will do great.

    @SavageMrsMoose best of luck on your marathon! I know you'll do great. Fingers crossed for your qualification!! And I've decided that in 2028, I'll be doing the Chattanooga Ironman. It's within a couple days drive of here, I have a camper to rest in pre-race, and the swim is very beginner friendly. The ride has a couple of sharp climbs (no more than 3/4 miles long at worst, and I'll be riding my carbon fiber bike for better climbing performance), and the run has less than 1,500 feet of gain over all 26.2 miles. I think I have the best chance of finishing on that course. After all, my goal isn't to race (hence no renting a tri-bike), it's to finish within the time limitation. :wink:

    Once again, forgot to log yesterday's, which was an assault on the virtual slopes of Ventoux. Brutal climb. Today was a stage of the Tour de Zwift in virtual Scotland.


    Ride 1 - 27.01 miles <- yesterday’s that I forgot to log
    Ride 2 - 30.01 miles
    Previous - 156.02 miles

    @billbiggers06 Welcome back!! It's so good to see you! Great climbing, BTW. :smile:

    Today was a swim day, and the weather was decent enough to ride the gravel bike there and back again (though the trail is a muddy sack of poo). Then had to get in a decent ride... which ended up being more than decent, because I forgot what a bear the Col d'Aspin is.

    Ride 1 - 1.72 <- tiny ride to the local pool
    Ride 2 - 1.53 <- tiny ride back (with apparently .2 miles of GPS kerfuffle, but as you know if it ain't on Strava it never happened)
    Ride 3 - 22.00 miles <- death on the virtual Col d’Aspin at 125% actual gradient
    Previous - 213.04 miles

    Total - 238.29 miles / 2023 miles

    Hello, @wends I can’t keep away!

    Shortish ride today, but it was 38° and dark, so I give myself extra points. It’s good to have a riding buddy to keep you accountable.

    YTD: 69 miles and 4,298’
