    And let it be known that from here on out, there will be LOTS of short little rides until the stupid prize wheel on the new Zwift event gives me all the virtual swag instead of repeats. Bah.

    Ride 1 - 2.56 miles <- outdoors to the pool
    Ride 2 - 3.14 miles <- outdoors return
    Ride 3 - 18.01 miles <- Zwift meetup
    Ride 4 - 6.01miles <- Zwift spin ride
    Ride 5 - 10.02 miles <- Zwift spin ride

    Today was a day filled with tiny, short little rides just to get spins on the silly Zwift wheel lol

    Oh yeah, and there was a race in there, too. All sprints and no real climbing makes my legs sad little noodles.

    Ride - 10.00 miles <- Zwift Race
    Rides, additional - 18.09 miles <- accumulated miles from short spin rides, no link below due to sheer number of rides performed today; just see athlete profile on Strava if you need proof I’m doing these, please! 😂

    On the bike last night but not sure what it's going to be today, bike or run. The weather is being very 'March' so I've not run all week.

    No link provided for the Ride(s) as, yes, there are MANY little rides of varying distances in my efforts to spin the virtual prize wheel as many times as it takes to win the floopy hat and London Kit this week. If you want proof, please just hit my Strava profile. They’re there!

    Today was a pair of Zwift rides - one a workout to stick with the training program I just started (6 weeks with 4 rides per week, so fairly aggressive one), and the other ride was a virtual meetup with friends from all over the world. Good times!

    This thread has been pretty quiet lately. Just checking in to log my progress for the year.
    35 rides
    557 miles
    33,409 vertical feet

    Out of work so balancing the job hunt with some longer rides but still trying to get out pre-dawn most days if only to beat the traffic.

    @billbiggers06 Do hope you find yourself employment soon, bud! Sheesh.

    Ride 1 - 1.81 miles <- Outside, to the pool
    Ride 2 - 1.67 miles <- Outside, return
    Ride 3 - 12.01 miles <- Zwift meetup

    I would love to join in on this!

    The only bike ride I have logged is 4 miles from this morning. I will start logging these in Strava now though! Joining from a stationary bike

    @Viridian1539 Welcome!! I hope you enjoy the challenge. :smiley:

    Today was actually a swimming day - couldn't get in the rides to and from the pool as it was actively raining, and our trails get nasty in the wet. Did a Zwift workout, though.

    Did a workout today to keep up with the training plan I'm doing, and participated in the Zwift L'Etape race event (though it was more recovery than race for me as I've been straining the old left knee and it's not happy with me - think I'm going to turn the trainer difficulty down to 75%, because at 100% and with the front derailleur being stuck on the 52 chainring due to being rusted solidly in place, climbing is HARD on the joints).

    Morning ride on the stationary bike. Kinda slow because I did it while playing a video game on the TV 😅
    Great workout though!
