good lord, that is amazing!

got 41 miles done today. 110 for november so far. the last 5 really hurt. have a sick kid at my house, so i am running on about 5 hours of sleep today. that coupled with not eating particularly well before the ride really did a number on me. the last 5 miles were really cold and painful...into the wind, and completely out…

38 miles on the bike this evening, just beat the rain. total was 128 minutes. so far, i am @ 320/1000 for november.

38 miles for me tonight. last night with the club...they stop riding as an organized group because it gets dark too early. 69 miles so far this month. -matt

amazing how different body types are. i'm struggling to expend 1000 calories on a 30 mile ride...of course, i'm about 140 soaking wet, too!

90 minutes with the weight bench tonight. added 30 seconds on each side and 30 seconds of front planking between each set. ouchie! 192/1000

TD- how are you calculating your calorie expenditure? I know you're a fairly big guy, and I would expect you to burn more than me for comparable mileage, but your numbers are HUGE! A general rule of thumb is 35 cals/mile ridden...which works out pretty close for me. My HRM and the calculator built into MFP agree with that…

so which thread are we using? whichever...i cycled for 102 minutes tonight...31 miles total. -matt

I'm starting off November with 31 miles today. Rode with the local club tonight, but got dropped about 2/3 way through.

we did something similar last month right here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/357995-1000-minutes-challenge-october I'm in for this one, too. -matt

one final hour with the weights tonight. total for october: 2322 minutes. is anyone else tired? ;) -matt

I'm in. I am going to shoot for 400+ again. A little bit worried about the lack of light in the evenings, but we'll see how it plays out.

25 more this evening. less wind, but chilly. time to break out the long sleeves and pants! total for october: 506 miles. probably won't get to ride tomorrow, so that is going to be it. was shooting for 400, so i did OK. good luck to the rest of you guys. -matt

another hour spent with the weights this evening. total for october: 2026 with a couple of days to go.

i was doing it as one serving. i used one serving (2 T) pb2, 1 T honey, 1 T chocolate chips, about 1/2 serving raisins and 2T powdered milk. i guess you could divide it into to portions and go for a lower calorie count, but it really isn't that big when everything is combined. FWIW a lot of the world food aid organizations…

i make something similar, but use powdered non-fat milk instead of protein powder, pb2, and a tablespoon of chocolate chips. i omit the rice crispies and oatmeal, and add a few raisins. totals: calories: 270, carbs 51, fat 6, protein 10, sodium 150, potassium 300.

i got 31 more miles tonight. total for october: 456 miles.

109 minutes on the bike tonight for 31 miles and some change. total for october: 1966/1000
