just an observtion but not many bonus points out there are you all adding the points to the milege done for that day...inquiring minds want to know or are you just holding on to them to get the last day bump lol....
Well today I actually felt awesome. This is my 8th day in a row at this for I have been getting ready for my run in Florida. Today brought in the sufferfest ride, "Blender" and then we jumped on the treadmill. After freezing yesterday I wanted a break.
10 miles =10 points
Time-1:26=1point
3 miles at TP= 3 points
Total points=14
Well I couldn't take it so I hopped back on the Tmill this evening for just one hour and netted 7 miles but no bonus points cause the legs were not happy with me. So one hour = 1 point and 7 miles = 7 points + the 14 from this am totals = 22 points.
Stage #2. A Steve West Mary. Well it's done and thanks all for the motivation. Pain cave don't smell so nice now ! Brenda your race director was at the finish line for me, awesome supporter she is clap clap clap and took great finisher photos ! Target time 4:20 Finisher time 4:19 a treadmill PB I will take that !
So today overall no tp pts( I have only managed one overall), no weather pts today even though it's -29 C out, just gutted out 26.2 miler for 26 pts.Was over 4 hr mark so 4 pts there for a total of 30.I also made a PB today as it's my first marathon on a treadmill (ugg) no pts there !
Lots of ice skating out there today, what with the warm-up on the weekend and well below freezing today. I fell HARD at mile 2 on the XC trails and removed myself to the road. Still glad to be outside, very impressed with the treadmill marathon put up today!
7.1 miles+1 pt sub-32+1 pt (>1 hour)+1 mile @TP = 10 pts. Not bad for a Monday.
Not giving in just yet. Check the elevation profile. This weren't no trundlin' along on the easy parts of Wyoming Avenue. Very difficult to keep a steady pace on this terrain but I kept it going past the mental barriers. Don't know if I'll get the 'century' I'm looking for but it may be close.
New Year's Day is going to be a Hangover 5K run in Westfield at high noon. Mike Weinmann! Wanna join in? I'm gonna wear the badger hat.
15.2 Miles on the dreadmill.. 2 @ TP Yes my legs are sore and beat up. Thanks to my team mates Steve and Peter for setting the tone. Thanks to Carl for his mileage over the last 8 days.
6 mi today in 1 hour, 1 mi at TP so 8 points for the Badger! Sorry Carl-just not able to get time for the 'big' miles. Weather was a perfect 55degrees, sunny and no wind
Badger is roaring his ugly head. Riding this morning for 90 min with a buddy then hoping to run outside for a change of scenery. Then the big daddy tomorrow. I must then taper somewhat for this race coming up.
Best of luck to everyone today's it's been a blast!!!!
Nice work, John! BTW, I was looking at the doc and observed you entering your 12 points just now. That was startling but cool. I came here to check if you commented because I was wondering if I messed up your line by accident. ;-)
@Carl - now if we could just combine forces here, we might beat the Ottawa Sleeper Cell (AKA the Canadians)! Heck, if Team Texas recruited Steve West we could probably win it all with just one guy!
I'm flattered Joe but I don't think the math works. The OSCG have been really putting up the numbers to match the smack talk. But if you could convince the Ulfigs and Brian Quarton.... that would get you close.
With all the mile mileage folks crushing the big miles, I think I'm posting for all the 'other' folks. Yes, I did dress for 40 degree temps after my NOS Tuesday FTP work and ran exactly... wait for it.... 1 mile. Even met the wife coming home from work on my way back into the neighborhood and had her play lead vehicle for me until the garmin beeped one mile and then I hopped in. 1 mile gets you 5 bonus points (at the end).
7 miles + 1 hour + 4 miles at TP + Cold enough for wife to question my wisdom (not that that isn't something new) = 13
It's all there in the link posted here. I got a late start and paid the price. Up high in the Reservation there had already been some snow today but when I got up there a big flurry developed and for a while there I was...
Well running mates time to check in for today's adventure, another tough day but we were able to get er done.This evening the Ottawa Sleeper Cell x 6 were out in full force and did the resolution run 5km. I managed to get the 3.1 miles done in a stunning 33:30, temp was -19 and clear sky's. Points to follow
So before the Resolution run feeling the heat of the awesome run team here I did 23.1 miles on the dreadmill, so tallying 26.2 miles completed over 4 hrs. Total TP(NOT) - 0 26.2 MI - 26 PTS HRS - 4 Temp -19 C - 1 PT Total 31.2
To the rest of the Ottawa gangster's way to get things done and a shout out to teammate Scott Carty for really stepping up his game today. To the rest of us gang, tomorrow boy's To the Finish !

Not going to be a podium finisher but should place respectably.
Nice work to all those crushing the run challenge!
Aww man, Steve! You did your two TP miles all at once. I'm usually too scared to run the treadmill that fast let alone for 2 miles.
Simon, you beast. I've officially resigned myself to not being able to match your total.
Yes, Kylie, the Ottawa Sleeper Cell Gangsters also lead the jokes per runner category.
Isabelle and Mark! Holy schnikees! What a team!
Please, God, 2014 can't come soon enough.
Sorry Carl-just not able to get time for the 'big' miles.
Weather was a perfect 55degrees, sunny and no wind

Badger Boy - HammerTime
Steve Ross, no weather excuses... Get your sissy azz outside for a run today...
Nice work, John! BTW, I was looking at the doc and observed you entering your 12 points just now. That was startling but cool. I came here to check if you commented because I was wondering if I messed up your line by accident. ;-)
Another workout comes to an end. I just have to say the BADGER FAMILY is making a statement with only two members!!! BOOM!!!
We started with Rogers out of Trainer Road and hit FTPs at .99, 1.02, 1.0, and .99. So far everyday before we run we ride a minimum of one hour.
Since 12/25 I have racked up 97.02 miles of running with the marathon left tomorrow and 157.33 miles of biking.
We then changed quickly and went out into the freezing tundra for just over 7 miles nice and slow.http://connect.garmin.com/activity/422373335
7miles = 7 points
under 30 degrees = 1 point
over 60 min = 1 point
Total today = 9 points
BTW - nice picture. Really liked the wings.
Wow guy's/gal's thing's are starting to shape up here !
@JW I will get outside today after dark !
@Joe I feel there is some running collusion going on here, nice like the way you think !
@Westy thanks for giving the gangster's some kudo's they have been mentally pushed by all and have risen to the running challenge !
Keep getting after it everyone!
7 miles + 1 hour + 4 miles at TP + Cold enough for wife to question my wisdom (not that that isn't something new) = 13
