          Signing up now. I need this this year. I hurt my knee about 5 months ago training for a 10k. I haven't been able to get right since. I bought a absorbing treadmill this weekend, but still really sore. I put in 12 miles on the bike to try to get me started again. I really need to end the year in a groove. I hope this can kick start me.

              Tweaked my commute to a 13 mile route each way. Studded tires suck. At least I feel good about not wiping out when the ice comes, but the workout has definitely gotten harder.

                Holy crap! Great opening day. Nice to see some newcomers putting in some good mileage and the oldcomers plodding along as usual.

                  I do hope he joins in on the competition. I'll reach out to him and pester him to participate.
                  Pretty much what Moliere said. (I even had to bail on IMAZ because I've been so busy, which sucked). But I'm right in the teeth of marathon training right now, so this will work out well.

                    I am a few days late, but I am in. I lost almost 20lbs over the last couple months, but have fallen back off the wagon. Hopefully this will give me the kick in the butt that I need.

                        With P-diddy joining us - I guess it a race for Second spot and for the moment - that is me ( untill Topper and Creekster get their miles in )

                        I may be small, but I'm slow.

                          I'm not counting any chickens. I know what my training schedule says, but I also know that I just barely got done taking off a few days because of a pulled hamstring. Injuries happen, especially when you are running stupid weekly miles.

                            Running three times per week is all I need to suffer injury. I am jealous of your young body that lets you run.

                              I think I'm at that point too. I used to log quite a few miles running, but I have to keep going in to physical therapy for running related injuries. Now I've been cycling for my cardio. My body appreciates the lack of impact. Unfortunately, I still have to run for work.

                              Took my son's road bike out for a ride this morning. Compared to the miles I put on my HEAVY commuter bike with studded tires, this thing rolls and climbs like butter.

                                I can log 100 to 150 miles with no problem on the bike, and but if I log 21 in a week on the road, I am in major pain in the knees.

                                I forgot how nice the road bike is, until I went on vacation and rented a bike that wasn't a real road bike. It was in Tahiti, on Bora Bora, and man on man, the difference between a real bike and one of those monster bikes is a load work. Usually, I just bring my cleats, and pedals, and rent. It wasn't an option that time.
