  • Thanks RnP.  I'm looking forward to having to buy you both coffee again.  Hopefully because I hit the goals, but at if not at least I'll get stronger trying!

  • Whoops, look like that ship has sailed. Sorry I missed the boat! Have not been keeping track of what was needed when. Good luck, errbody!

    I'm up for buying RnP coffee still working off of what they did for me in '08! image

  • RnP: Thanks for the extra accountability. Hopefully I can hit these goals. Either way the coffee or beer is on me :-)

    Hey, don't make it so easy on them.  We've got to complain and whine all season long, agonize whether or not we should pay out for such misery, and then grudgingly admit that that you are way faster and maybe, just maybe they deserve it 

     

    (I paid out for lat year results, beer and coffee image )

  • Tom paid big time (thanks again brother) and we installed the super double top secret en tapwater enhancement protocol in his house without even asking. Worth at least 30W and 3 vDOT points...he's such and outlier but we are tracking his family to see if it works.

  • Any chance for late entries?  I've added my (late) bike test result in the sheet.

    Thanks,

    Mike

  • Sweet!!! Thanks for the prediction and goal.  I'm wondering: Is this a goal for our next testing week or for several months down the road.?

  • Ok, checked out the predictions.  So where do I sign up for the double or nothing option?  You are *so* going down CoachR.

     

    Waitasec...heads *you* win, tails *I* lose?  Ok, nevermind.  But you're still going down. image

    Usually it's the goal before your next big A race after OS.  They'll take payment at anytime, but especially when the cards are running low on funds image

  • Looks good Rich and Patrick. I will see your bets and raise you....I hope! 

     

    Coffee cards ready for reload?

     

    Vince

  • Hmmm, looks like Rich wants a venti coffee for Thanksgiving morning....want a scone or a fluffy croissant too?

    11/23/09, y'all. It's on.

  •  cool..up for the challenge...

    So, you have me at 275 from 255. The 255 was indoor watts...I assume you guys mean indoor 275 right?

     

    Thanks

    20W more than whatever you submitted. If you submitted on the moon watts, that's what we'll use!  image

  • after learning the pain cave way for a few weeks I decided that i needed to redo my FTP test due to my new knowledge of pain and power. So I redid my FTP test today and went from 182 to 209... So I already owe coach Rich Starbucks.... Now that i know what real work and pain is can I get a new watt number to push for since i apparently was sandbagging the first one?

  • I think we have another competition here,

    to see who's greater predictor of performance improvements Mr Power or Mr Pace

  • RnP,

    I've been wanting to do this since I joined! And this OS I finally have a PT. But I'm just starting week 1, due to my hamstring injury. Is it too late to get in on this fun?
  • Nope, never too late...do it when you can and let me know when it's in there. Will be hitting this Wed (tomorrow) and again when I get a poke in the eye.

    P,

    Was updating my signature, so I checked the spreadsheet to get my goals. No rush (I'm on medical hold for a couple weeks ), but could you throw a Coach P Predicted Value in for my vDOT? Thanks!

  •  Is this open to Jan OS Peeps?

  •  Bump   You guys ARE gonna let the Jan Peeps play too, right?

  • Yes. Fill in the spreadsheet please.

    That said, my SBUX card is dangerously low, many peeps didn't pay up last year = this year I'm on your doorstep wantin' my mf'ing coffee!! So if you put your numbers in the spreadsheet you WILL pay

  • Several rows of data on the bottom of the sheet waiting to be 'predicted on'. Be a shame to not have to load the coaches up on sbux or beer cause of some empty cells image
  • Cary -

    I think this makes 17 forum posts and emails from you over the weekend...appears your personal sleeper cell has been activated. I have hit that spreadsheet 14 times this month. I like my sbux, but like it more when people enter their stuff when we told them to, like 4 weeks ago. image Thanks for the reminder...

    Sorry guys, I'm testing this week and was anxious to get the heads/tails predictions beforehand. I'll try to keep more on top of the getting the info in when I'm supposed to.
