Thanks. Ah, guess I need to buy a bike if I'm going to stay. I have a comfort bike but it goes "cling-la-cling" and have been advised to not race with it. I'm currently in a spin class; hate that I don't know how many miles we biked. I really try to keep the biking at a moderate to easy level, but seems to always kill my legs for a good day or two. How do you guys schedule your biking and running?

Thank you. I kind of snuck in here a couple weeks back. I don't know if I can make the bike mileage this year, but I'll sure give it a go. Last years total was only around the 50 mile mark. I think my highest bike total for a year was 675 miles 2 years ago. So this is a long shot for me.

I hear ya about the bike mileage. The most I've ever biked in a year was 430 miles so this might prove to be a challenge for me as well. Figured the training group might help keep me motivated. Big grin

MOTIVATION Big grin

, That's what we're here for. If you guys will help me tie my shoes more often, I'll help you stomp a few pedals. On that note I did an easy seven today and have run five times in the last three weeks. Hey...you have to eat the elephant one bite at a time. Wink

Hi! I'm new here. I like to run, bike, and swim, but all of my races so far have been running. My Peugeot bike was top of the line in like 1985, so I got it for nothing. It's a great commuter bike, though--fenders, generator lights, the works! Carl

I should be so lucky you know what they say about Britain a 17th century class system and a 16th century sanitation system.
